WASHINGTON
The Justice Department said Monday that it has begun an internal investigation into its handling of information gathered in the government’s domestic spying program.
However, Democrats criticized the review as not going far enough to determine whether the program violates federal law.
The inquiry by Inspector General Glenn A. Fine will focus on the role of department prosecutors and agents in carrying out the warrantless surveillance program run by the National Security Agency.
Fine’s investigation is not expected to address whether the controversial program is an unconstitutional expansion of presidential power, as its critics and a federal judge in Detroit have charged.
Oh. I guess not.
Nevermind
