Video: Director of National Intelligence Lying about NSA Data Collection

Video: Director of National Intelligence Lying about NSA Data Collection.HT: Economic Policy Journal.

Senator Ron (D-OR) Wyden tweets:

In March, DNI Clapper specifically told me #NSA does not wittingly collect any type of data on millions of Americans

Wyden then links to this video above.

Clapper, in complete contradiction to what we now know because of whistleblower Edward Snowden, indicated to Wyden that no data was being conducted about Americans. Here's a transcript of the point of perjury:

WYDEN: "Does the NSA collect any type of data at all on millions or hundreds of millions of Americans?"

CLAPPER "No, sir,"

WYDEN (appearing surprised): "It does not?"

CLAPPER: "Not wittingly. There are cases where they could inadvertently, perhaps, collect, but not wittingly."
