So it is fake? I think it is a intended draft to make it better for the administration, and future rulers to do what they want to those that speak
out.
Section 105: Law Enforcement Use of FISA Information.
50 U.S.C. � 1806(b) currently prohibits the disclosure of information "for law enforcement purposes" unless the disclosure includes a statement that
the information cannot be used in a criminal proceeding without the Attorney General's advance authorization. This provision would amend � 1806(b) to
give federal investigators and prosecutors greater flexibility to use FISA-obtained information. Specifically, it would eliminate the requirement that
the Attorney General personally approve the use of such information in the criminal context, and would substitute a requirement that such use be
approved by the Attorney General, the Deputy Attorney General, the Associate Attorney General, or an Assistant Attorney General designated by the
Attorney General.
Section 106: Defense of Reliance on Authorization.
50 U.S.C. � 1809(b) and 1827(b) create a defense for agents who engage in unauthorized surveillance or searches, or who disclose information without
authorization, if they were relying on an order issued by the FISA Court. However, there does not appear to be a statutory defense for agents who
engage in surveillance or searches pursuant to FISA authorities under which no prior court approval is required--e.g., pursuant to FISA's wartime
exception (50 U. S.C. �� 1811, 1829 & 1844), or FISA's presidential authorization exception (50 U.S.C. � 1802 & 1822(a)). This provision would
clarify that the "good faith reliance" defense is available, not just when
