In a very familiar sounding mantra, the NSA stated in a legal filing to a federal court last Friday that it’s ‘too big to comply with the law’.
“ [A]ttempts to fully comply with the Court’s June 5 Order would be a massive and uncertain endeavor because the NSA may have to shut down all databases and systems that contain Section 702 information in an effort to comply.” the filing reads.
The filing comes from a lawsuit filed by the Electronic Frontier Foundation, which is challenging the NSA’s warrantless collection of American citizen’s private data.
So…
– We bailed out private banks with tax payer money because they were ‘too big to fail’
– The bankers are also ‘too big to jail‘ so nobody has gone to prison for trashing our economy and commiting crimes like money laundering to drug cartels. But, like Eric Holder says, “I am concerned that the size of some of these institutions becomes so large that it does become difficult for us to prosecute them when we are hit with indications that if you do prosecute, if you do bring a criminal charge, it will have a negative impact on the national economy, perhaps even the world economy.”
– Now the NSA, following the successful excuse used to cover the banksters, states that it is ‘too big to be lawful’.
Anyone see a disturbing pattern here?
if they are too big to obey the law then we need to dissolve the whole department as we do not need someone like that in the USA.
Repeal the Feder reserve act of 1913. Plain and simple. That’s why Kennedy was killed
No. Not true.
Scary. Cant trust NSA
That’s a riot
Same arrogant responses that the IRS and the so called Justice Department as well as EPA and the so Dept of Uneducation. What does it take to make all Americans understand these evil people and what their true agenda is?
Then break them apart like they did w/ the phone co
Effers
