NSA may not target a US citizen without a court order that explicitly authorizes the targeting.Īs a number of people have pointed out, given how NSA uses “target” here, this doesn’t amount to a denial, because it’s possible that Carlson’s communications with a foreigner who was legally targeted got swept up. Tucker Carlson has never been an intelligence target of the Agency and the NSA has never had any plans to try to take his program off the air. In response, the NSA issued an unprecedented statement via Twitter, reading in part: Carlson claims the whistleblower’s ability to read back what Carlson said in some texts and emails (both easily hackable communications) about an upcoming story is proof that it happened. The other day, Tucker Carlson claimed that an NSA whistleblower had contacted him to let him know that the NSA was monitoring “our” electronic communications and planned to leak them to take him off the air.
