Hoekstra: I Want to Know What Samantha Power Did with Unmasking and Why She Needed that Info

‘This is surveillance of Americans’

EXCERPT:

HOEKSTRA: "Well what I really want to know here, Bill, is I want to know exactly how much information in raw intelligence does the U.N. ambassador need to have? What did she -- did she get American names unmasked? Why would she need that kind of information? What were the topics? Remember, this is information that if it were collected inside the United States, it would be illegally collected. This is surveillance of Americans, their conversations overseas, there is no -- independent third party adjudication of this, there is no warrant, and I think -- you know, I want to know what Samantha Power did, but I also want to know what’s going on in the intelligence community, you know. Is this a surveillance state that has been growing and developing over the last ten years?"
