PAUL: "Well, you know, I agree with President Trump, who in 2024 said we ought to kill FISA, that he was spied on, his campaign was spied on by American intelligence. Absolutely, we should not let a foreign intelligence service, FISA, we shouldn’t let them spy on Americans. So what I am asking for is this. Right now we spy on foreigners without any kind of warrant, we just gather up everything. We gather up sometimes every cell phone information in an entire country in Europe sometimes. That is foreigners, they aren’t Americans, the Constitution doesn’t apply there. But what happens is, if I talk to you, and you talk to your reporter in the Middle East and your reporter in the Middle East has a source in the Arab world whose cousin is with Hamas, all of a sudden your conversation, my conversation, it's all caught up in FISA, and they should not be able to investigate a journalist for your contacts, but they shouldn’t be able to investigate me because I talked to a journalist. So I am not for allowing them to look at Americans' conversations or metadata without a warrant.”
