Similar to how they were fine with the government building a global spying apparatus which is now going to be turned on US citizens as soon as they figure out how to take over the NSA.

You act as if it wasn't from its very inception.

It's technically illegal to spy on US citizens, so they at least had to pretend they didn't use this intelligence for that sort of thing. If Trump decides to not follow that law (and I don't see why not), he'll give every cop access to that data to track down 'illegals' or 'antifa'.
