"Can a U.S. president legally spy on a political opponent or any other person in America without any suspicion, probable cause or a warrant from a judge? In a word, yes."
Paraphrasing Judge Nap further~
Besides your cell phone and your car, Big Brother can even find out how many times you use the microwave in your kitchen.
Welcome to the new but not improved unconstitutional USA,

    We hardly ever had a problem with gators. When we did, some idiots had built lake houses around Jack's Pond, more of an inlet than a pond where its hidden behind a lump of cypress trees.
    That's where most of the gator's were and they were all flushed out into the main lake.
    One day at about that time, I was doing something on the dock when I heard a gator snort with its nose above the water. I walked over to take a look, saw nothing and here comes my dog running like a banshee.
    I couldn't stop the silly mongrel from jumping off the dock and into the water. So I grabbed a paddle and repeatedly slapped it on the water until the dog swam back to the shallows where I could grab it. I was never so scared for a stupid dog in my life--and I've since been around a long time since then.

    I have never seen a poisonous snake in the "wild".
    Your mama taught you to be brave and deal with venomous serpents or gators . The most threatened I have felt from wild life is being run out of my fishing hole by a wolverine in Wisconsin 45 mins from my home. To me that is a big plus living in Minnesota no venomous snakes.

    Yeah, Nap along with Judge Jeanine Pirro.
    Wonder why judges with Italian names like Antonin Scalia get what America is supposed to be all about.

    Speaking of markets, I'm trying to remember who said the new health care law should announce at the start that health care is now a free market.

    Took me a moment to figure our what were hinting at. Fortunately, you can edit a post forever. The title is fixed. Thanks.

    Now we have a huge group of snowflakes angry about not being enslaved even worse than we already are. And they are meanwhile completely oblivious to that fact.

    You wouldn't believe how many poisonous snakes I killed at that Compass Lake we both know of back in the 60s when I was a kid.
    My dad had the first beside the Dothan Boat Club cottage built on the north side of the main lake.
    Whoa, think I may have told my mama is calling me to come up from the lake to kill a snake over and over again story.

    We have become so used to government running our lives that we have forgotten what freedom is. Like the current hoo-ha over health insurance. We have come to accept that the government has to run some sort of health club, but where is that in the Constitution? The problem is and always will be, that one never fits all. As a matter of fact one thousand never fits all. It is why supermarkets have come to be. Individual programs put up by individual agents, can be presented to individual persons, and then modified to suit them and their budget. There should be no more penalty for opting out than refusing to buy a game machine.

    The ability to monitor, easily manufacture evidence against any evil libertine without an army of overseers is incredibly dangerous. America has gone over the edge and is definitely in the category of one of the greatest dictatorships of all time and most citizens are not aware that they are slaves.

    It's not necessarily crazy anymore with all of the protests becoming increasingly violent and anarchist.

    How many times you use the microwave would be pretty easy - those are either 700 or 1100 watts normally, and you probably have a smart-meter on your house from the utility, so just look for the sudden 3.18 or 4.58 amp (@ 220 volt service) spikes on power delivery. Might be a little harder with solar systems (but not impossible there either).

    Nonetheless, I've been calling for quite a while - the best thing Trump could do would be to issue an executive order to dismantle the systems and order the sell-off of assets and rescind the contracts to Booz Allen, et al. Do that, and it would be very hard to immediately re-start again by someone else.

    I'm sure that will serve if the Deep State is too deep for Trump to dislodge. It also would be the ideal defense against external enemies.

    He's right, of course. And that's the more reason to change the paradigm for national defense to a layered defense, in which the individual citizen, armed as well as he can arm himself, forms the last layer.

    Judge Nap added "any other person in America" and, using your different words, doing so without any verifiable cause.
    Me dino ain't no Judge Nap but that's what he said.

    As for the other side of the aisle, me dino views the GOP Speaker of the House Paul Ryan as a RINO pet poisonous snake Trump has become perhaps too way far for being conned and too far too late freaking enamored with. After all, Paul Ryan is quite the gifted political creature when it comes to saying the right for responded to manipulative words.
    As for the inevitable poisonous bite?
    Hell's bells! Would "Well, you knew I was a snake" ever be a Paul Ryan admission of any treasonous guilty anything?
    Hell, no! Not freaking ever!
