What? The DDR and the Soviet Union fly over their cities, recording phone calls?
I hope McCain demands a bombing.
Oh wait, it was the FBI. Nevermind, they need to do it because FREEDOM!

One doesn't simply phone an Obama administration Agency demanding transparent information.
Not by the hair of Franken's chinny chin chin.

FBI Confirms Wide-Scale Use Of Spy Planes Over U.S. Cities
I knew it. They are doing this just to find out which ex girlfriends I still have contact with so they can tell my wife. I can't think of any other reason.
where does FBI get so much money from so as to maintain and run a fleet of 50 planes? have we run out of any better ways to spend that money.
The planes, registered under fake company names,
Shouldn't the FAA seeking indictments for this against the FBI? If you lie on a government document it's a felony according to 18 U.S. Code § 1001.

There won't be any politicians left.
That's what happens when you have few limits to immigration, you get a bunch of foreigners with allegiance to their home country living here. This results in the government being paranoid about its residents, and rightfully so.

Every first generation immigrant is like that. The very first immigrants claimed this land on behalf of their King.
Members of Congress are demanding that the FBI turn over more information about its use of airplanes to conduct surveillance of Americans.
The FBI is using at least 50 planes to conduct surveillance operations over U.S. cities and rural areas, the Associated Press reported earlier this week. The planes, registered under fake company names, are equipped with high-tech cameras and, in some circumstances, technology that can track thousands of cell phones below.
"In the wake of the president's signature on a surveillance reform law that ends warrantless bulk collection of Americans' phone records, it is highly disturbing that your agency may be doing just that and more with a secret fleet of aircraft engaged in surveillance missions in the United States," 16 lawmakers, including Reps. Suzan DelBene, Zoe Lofgren, and Chris Van Hollen, wrote in a letter Thursday to FBI Director James Comey.
The lawmakers requested that the FBI brief Congress on the legal theories justifying the program, when it seeks warrants, the technologies it uses on the flights, and how it limits spying on innocent Americans.
Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley and Sen. Al Franken sent their own letters this week asking for similar information from the FBI.
