Bipartisan challenge to FBI spying

Time - Alaw that has allowed federal law enforcement and national security agencies to access the private  communications of American citizens without a warrant for years is facing a bipartisan challenge in Congress. A key provision of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), set to expire on April 30, has been used by investigators to intentionally access Americans’ data for domestic investigations through "backdoor queries," without judicial sign-off and with little transparency. According to a recently declassified report by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, the FBI increased its searches on Americans in 2025 by 34% from the previous year, to more than 7,000.
