A "dream job" for Rachel Brand would be one where she can stab her bosses in the back.
Brand also addressed the matter of requiring warrants for queries of the intelligence data, which she said would prevent investigators from accessing information already collected. According to Brand, privacy concerns stemming from Edward Snowden's leaks have hindered reauthorization, and she argued that misconceptions about Section 702 drive those concerns.
The PCLOB report recommended that the US end bulk data collection and that the FISA court judges' decision making "would be greatly enhanced if they could hear opposing views when ruling on requests to establish new surveillance programs"[19] to increase public confidence in intelligence and surveillance programs. It recommended that the government should attempt to promote more transparency to inform public debate on technology, national security, and civil liberties. To do this, to declassify the rulings and opinions of the FISA court and that a Special Advocate board should be formed in the FISA court. These measures would allow citizens to bring up surveillance concerns in court, challenge government surveillance proposals, and help keep the proceedings of the court more transparent.

Jeff Sessions needs to resign. He has, evidently, been compromised. After so much has come to light, no one is being referred for prosecution. This is the reason I know our republic is in serious jeopardy. No indictments of the top traitors.
