There\u2019s no other possible source for that information, period.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe NSA captured that information without our knowledge and did it for political reasons,\u201d Carlson said. \u201cThe Biden administration is spying on us. We have confirmed that. This morning we filed a FOIA request \u2014 Freedom of Information Act request \u2014 asking for all information that the NSA and other agencies have gathered about this show. We did it mostly as a formality. We\u2019ve also contacted the press office of both NSA and the FBI.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Biden said late last month that he would not allow the Department of Justice to seize records from reporters and, if the story is true, it\u2019s not clear how the NSA would have obtained Carlson\u2019s records without obtaining a warrant.<\/p>\n<p>Editor Ian Miles Cheong responded to the news by writing on Twitter: \u201cBiden lied, he promised he wouldn\u2019t do this.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\" readability=\"6.7183098591549\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Biden lied, he promised he wouldn\u2019t do this. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/r5D9QYS8W1\">https:\/\/t.co\/r5D9QYS8W1<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Ian Miles Cheong @ stillgray.substack.com (@stillgray) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/stillgray\/status\/1409748524527357960?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 29, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Other top responses to Carlson\u2019s remarks included:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Surabees\/status\/1409675909892755457\">Andrew Surabian<\/a>, top Republican strategist: \u201cNo area of government tramples on our constitutional rights more than the intelligence community. \u2026 And it\u2019s not even close.
