Forbes: NSA, DEA, IRS Lie About Fact That Americans Are Routinely Spied On By Our Government: Time For A Special Prosecutor, in which Jennifer Granick connects the dots on how NSA mission creep has gone from "foreign terrorists" to monitoring U.S. citizens.

If you've been following the NSA revelations there's nothing new here, but given the legislative state of this country, it's really only a matter of time before we can point to specific instances where people were targeted for prosecution based on their political views, and the surveillance dragnet was used to find some charge to bring against them.
