Slight means, by the rules used, pretty much everyone who has used a phone in the US for a domestic or international call is a suspect. Nonsense. I make int'l calls all the time and I'm not a suspect. "You can't wiretap US calls without a court order from a judge. " That isn't true any more No, you're wanting to consider someone in the US calling or being called from a foreign country, a domestic call. "Did Ben Franklin complain about George Washington reading Benedict Arnold's secret communications with the British?" Beats me. Of course, this isn't what is being addressed here. Ben certainly wouldn't have supported having people eavesdropping on every conversation of anyone who had ever spoken to a Brit. Or known someone who had. Or known someone who had known someone.... Nor would he have supported opening and reading of mail on the off chance that it might reveal something. Nor the examination of everyone's financial records, or tracking the books they check out(?) or what books they bought(?). Oh baloney. We know Washington used information obtained from spies and there was no objection to that.
