Congressman LaHood Claims FBI Wrongfully Spied On Him

An Illinois Congressman is accusing the F-B-I of 'wrongfully' spying on him.

 

Republican Congressman Darin LaHood, who oversees the House Intelligence Committee, said between December 2019 and 2020, the F-B-I searched his name multiple times in a bureau database.

 

LaHood says that the database should be used to search domestic terrorists, not Congressmen.

 

 

LaHood reports the search involves the F-B-I utilizing Section 702 of the so-called FISA (FY-sah) program. The program is up for reauthorization by the end of the year.
