from the FISA court before they start doing what we call US citizen or US person queries, where you're searching for a particular person's private communications that were incidentally collected on this FISA 702 database in connection with a foreign intelligence investigation.
That's a type of backdoor warrantless search that Americans are increasingly skeptical of.
And that's what they need to do.
Now, what baffles me is that they're unwilling to even negotiate that.
It's a very reasonable request.
It wouldn't be nearly as difficult even as an ordinary court warrant because it's a different context.
And it can be substantially narrower than that.
But this does need to happen.
And if they would do that, there's a huge group of us that would help them pass it tomorrow.
What's stunning to me is how defiantly unwilling they are to listen to the American people who increasingly are skeptical of Pfizer 702 without a warrant.
I really don't know any details about what this deal has in it.
But what I do know, Glenn...
is that when Barack Obama made a really bad deal about 10 years ago with Iran in the form of the JCPOA, that moved from a standpoint of American weakness.
It resulted in us giving an ungodly sum of money to Iran without any real concessions on Iran's part, and that's how we got to the awful mess where we are today.
I know that President Trump has every ability and every intention and every desire to make things better for the American people rather than empowering our enemies.
So I look forward to seeing what's in there.
I haven't seen it.
I don't know its contents, but I look forward to doing so later this week.
That's the name of the game.
And I hope and expect and pray that that's what we'll see out of this deal.
