Time and time again they prove to be bad stewards of the information they do have, and unwilling to abide by the restrictions that are legally placed on them.

I’m disinclined to support any extension of their powers.

"The size of a small city, it is the largest, most secret, most powerful, and most intrusive spy organization ever created."

Is it more intrusive than the KGB, Stasi or Chinese state security? Cite your source.
