“All this shows is that power will also be abused. Secret power that much more. But neither major party is actually fighting to strip these powers from the government. The GOP’s complaints of abuse of power ring hollow as they approve other Fourth Amendment violations authorized by the same legislation! They are just fighting for the upper hand over their political opponents. This is not freedom versus tyranny. It is a war of factions. That said, it is laughable that some worry the release of this memo will cause dangerous distrust in the FBI and DOJ. The more people distrust those dangerous and secretive government agencies, the better!”
