It's currently used for the "Drug War", a highly political endeavor.
Of course, once CISPES was designated as a terrorist organization...
: The Washington Post Magazine, June 23 1996
:
* The CISPES investigation expanded. The FBI conducted a MASSIVE NATIONWIDE
* investigation that put under surveillance ONE THOUSAND THREE HUNDRED THIRTY
* liberal groups, many of them religious or political organizations.
By definition, ECHELON surveillance of 1,330 groups is NOT an "aberration".
The state of Congressional oversight (and punishment of FISA violations)
is horrifying.
Not only did the NSA/FBI use FISA in a criminal manner, they then cross-
referenced through everyone ever connecting to CISPES - no matter how
distant - to achieve massive domestic spying for political purposes.
To crush peaceful lawful political protest.
In America.
For the President.
And they did it WITHOUT getting 1,330 FISA warrants.

* Mr. Pinson was a part-time bus driver for the Jewish Hospital before
* his arrest. He grew up suffering from severe asthma and tried all
* kinds of medicines to alleviate his problem. At age 18, he discovered
* that smoking marijuana made it easier for him to breathe. For the
* next decade he smoked marijuana and was able to enjoy activities he
* had never been able to do before.
*
* In 1993, at age 30, Joe decided to grow his own marijuana in the attic
* of the house he shared with his mother. He purchased some growing
* equipment from an indoor gardening store that was under surveillance
* by the DEA. The DEA traced Joe to his home, checked his electric
* bills to see if it was unusually high, and then flew over his house at
* 2:00 a.m. in a helicopter equipped with an infrared device. The
* infrared equipment showed a white light emanating from Joe's roof,
* indicating the escape of a large amount of heat, while the other roof-
* tops were black.
*
* Joe was arrested and took his case to trial. The jury found Joe
* guilty of cultivating marijuana, but not guilty of possessing it with
* intent to distribute.
I said before the Drug War was highly politicized.
It's a matter of politics over matter when the government's Drug War elevates
marijuana above its true pharmacological controlled substances classification;
it's a matter of hysteria to escalate it to the same top category as heroin
and LSD, 'Schedule I Substances'. Even cocaine is only Schedule II.

Why waste information that's just flying by for the taking?
Care for a fun conspiracy theory?
If I were pro-ECHELON, I would monitor all the Senators and ALL their staff
AND all their families. That's just to start. I would also monitor ALL
up-and-coming politicians.
You never know when you're going to need to squeeze some support out of them.
