Exclusive—Rep. Lauren Boebert & Rep. Eric Burlison: They’re Spying on Gun Owners, and Congress Has Until April 30 to Do Something About Ithttps://www.breitbart.com/politics/2026/04/23/exclusive-rep-lauren-boebert-rep-eric-burlison-theyre-spying-on-gun-owners-and-congress-has-until-april-30-to-do-something-about-it/?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_term=daily&utm_campaign=20260423Quote:
Congress just bought itself one week to get this right. Don’t waste them.
Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) is sold as a tool to spy on foreign terrorists. What surveillance hawks leave out is that when a foreign target — who can be virtually anyone — communicates with an American, those messages get swept into the database too. No warrant. No notice. And then the CIA, NSA, and FBI search through those private communications using Americans’ names, emails, and other identifiers — and no warrant is required for that either.
These “queries” for Americans’ information is what we call “backdoor searches,” and it is central to the raging fight over whether to reauthorize FISA. A federal court called it unconstitutional. The searches keep happening anyway.
The Founders required the government to ask permission before searching for your effects. They wrote it down. One week is enough time to honor that — if Congress actually wants to.
Be careful, Be ready, Be prepared.
