The Obama administration distributed thousands of intelligence reports with the unredacted names of US residents during the 2016 election.
During his final year in office, President Barack Obama's team significantly expanded efforts to search National Security Agency intercepts for information about Americans, distributing thousands of intelligence reports across government with the unredacted names of U.S. residents during the midst of a divisive 2016 presidential election.
The data, made available this week by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, provides the clearest evidence to date of how information accidentally collected by the NSA overseas about Americans was subsequently searched and disseminated after President Obama loosened privacy protections to make such sharing easier in 2011 in the name of national security. A court affirmed his order.
If you voted this election season, President Obama almost certainly has a file on you. His vast campaign database includes information on voters’ magazine subscriptions, car registrations, housing values and hunting licenses, along with scores estimating how likely they were to cast ballots for his reelection.

I suspect this is a tag-team bullsh#t disinfo thread with a bullsh#t source link.

I suspect you have no argument so instead came in here to launch insults and attack the source.
Too bad for you the rest of us residing in reality understand the NSA has been wiretapping many both domestically and abroad for years.

Notice he doesn't attempt to disprove it, a common leftist tactic.
Stumble across something which goes against your narrative and rather than trying to prove it wrong, dismiss the source and drag the conversation off topic.
