The House Judiciary Committee and its subcommittee on the weaponization of the federal government have been conducting oversight of federal law enforcement's receipt of information about American citizens without legal process and its engagement with the private sector. The committee believes that this represents a form of financial surveillance that raises concerns.
The investigation aims to shed light on the extent of collaboration between big government and big corporations in the surveillance of American citizens for financial purposes. The focus of this scrutiny is the investigation into the protests that took place on January 6th at the Capitol. Republican lawmakers argue that the investigative work has only just begun.
