Trump Seeks to Extend Spying Powers He Once Slammed
February 28, 2026·about 3 hours ago·via The American Conservative
President Trump pushes to extend domestic spying powers under programs he previously condemned as unconstitutional overreach. This reversal aims to bolster national security against real threats like terror and border chaos. Critics from the right warn of big government traps, but in a dangerous world, strong tools protect citizens over civil libertarian purity tests. Trump balances liberty with safety - unlike weak Dems who let threats fester.
