    Feinstein’s fighting words were in stark contrast to her role as a champion of NSA surveillance. In most cases, Feinstein has served as an example of how badly oversight over the intelligence community has failed, serving as an accessory to the very kind of excesses her committee was established, in the 1970s, to prevent.

She only wants to combat "Constitutional Crises" that she, personally, is the victim of. When the victims are the American people, she's leading the charge to keep their necks under the boot.
