I mean, if anything, that would be an argument that they really aren’t surveilling US people, which the NSA is (supposedly) not allowed to do. If they had warned us about it, it would be direct proof they were spying on us.

This would be a good point if nobody on Jan 6th had ties to any foreign targets (not a single person?) and we didn’t know they were already using it to spy on US citizens.
