No matter WHO is DNI, no government official should be able to spy on Americans without a warrant. Reforming Section 702 is the only path forward. washingtonpost.com/opinions/…

It doesn’t matter who’s in charge. FISA 702 can’t be renewed without real reforms. Case in point: Trump’s latest nominee for director of national intelligence was peddling election conspiracies just a few days ago.
Breaking: Trump says he's nominating Jay Clayton, the current U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, to be Director of National Intelligence. Just this week on CNBC, Clayton said the "American people are right to question" California's elections. To be clear: There is no evidence of fraud in those elections.

Republicans just blocked a five week FISA extension in order to cover up ongoing FISA abuses.

The senator from Texas seems just as confused about my FISA reform bill as he is about what state I've represented for many years
Oh boy, Cornyn just called Wyden "the senator from Washington"

Inflation is at its highest level in 3 years. This is Trump's economy.

Inflation is at its highest point in 3 years because of Trump's illegal tariffs and war in Iran. That's "Trumpenomics" for you...

The Senate is set to vote on renewing Trump’s spying powers this week. If section 702 of FISA is renewed, people like Bill Pulte, Todd Blanche, and Kash Patel will be able to invade any American's privacy. I’m going to fight like Hell to make sure that doesn’t happen.

🚨ALARMING: Sen. Ron Wyden has introduced legislation to STOP Trump and Patel from gaining access to INNOCENT Americans' personal data through surveillance loopholes. Share this if you agree Trump’s cronies should NOT have access to the private data of law-abiding citizens.

🚨COLOSSAL NATIONAL SECURITY BREACH Sen. Ron Wyden says foreign adversaries were able to access the LOCATION DATA of American troops deployed in war zones overseas. Trump and Hegseth own this. Our troops deserve better than this incompetence.

🚨HELL YEAH: Senate Finance Committee Ranking Member Ron Wyden just dropped the gauntlet on Trump’s slush fund after exposing a corrupt scheme that would shield it from independent audits. “We’re not going to let a DIME of taxpayer money go there.”

Reminder that Trump’s Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is sitting on Epstein's financial records showing 4,700 wire transfers totaling over $1.1 BILLION in and out of his accounts, including payments to women and girls. The American people deserve full transparency.

An update on where things stand on FISA: Early Friday morning, we successfully defeated a bill in the Senate to rubber-stamp the Trump administration's authority to spy on Americans without a warrant. This is a big win on privacy.

We have never seen a coalition like the one that stood up against the plan to rubber-stamp this spying authority. Elected officials from both sides of the aisle are waking up to the fact that *no president* should have this power.

I'll be fighting like hell between now and June 12 to ensure Congress doesn't cave and renew Section 702 of FISA without real reforms. Security and liberty aren't mutually exclusive, and it seems like Congress is finally starting to understand that.

WATCH: Wyden grills Secretary Bessent over his Treasury Department’s cover up of Epstein’s financial records. WYDEN: “Senate Investigators are trying to figure out who paid Epstein for GIRLS, and unfortunately, Secretary Bessent is preventing that from happening.”
