There is no illegal spying. There cannot by definition be illegal spying, as if you are caught, it is retroactively made legal. Go back to sleep.

So I can go into the president's bushes and spy on him. If I'm caught surely he would understand that by definition I was doing something legal.

You're telling people to go back to sleep, we should be telling you to wake up.

Sarcasm is low form of communication. It doesn't work.

Yeah this irony always gets me. Like yeah Cointelpro was "illegal" but also they did it and got away with it regardless. You can say it's illegal but that doesn't change that the intelligence agencies don't care.
