A key warrantless surveillance program under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act has expired, as Democrats blocked its extension due to concerns over the role of acting Director of National Intelligence Bill Pulte, as reported by CBS News. This development comes amidst growing concerns over surveillance and privacy, with lawmakers like Rep.
