I think that you have lost the trust of an awful lot of Americans and that is a dangerous, dangerous thing for an agency.
Make no mistake. While I believe that we must reauthorize several provisions, such as collection of business records, roving wiretaps, lone wolf authority, the reauthorization of these specific provisions in no way addresses the abuses.

I am terribly disappointed that you cannot summon the outrage to put it in stronger words than just this is unacceptable and doesn't represent the FBI.
I don't see how you can restore public trust without a thorough and complete and public housecleaning.
