FOX News: Split with Barr? FBI Director Wray says surveillance not the same as ‘spying’
FBI Director Christopher Wray, testifying to Congress Tuesday, said that he would not describe the bureau's traditional surveillance as “spying” -- indicating a possible split with Attorney General William Barr on his controversial use of the term to describe intelligence-gathering during the Russia probe.
“That’s not the term I would use,” Wray told lawmakers on the Senate Appropriations Committee when asked if FBI agents engage in "spying" when they follow FBI policies and procedures. “Lots of people have different colloquial phrases. I believe that the FBI is engaged in investigative activity, and part of investigative activity includes surveillance activity of different shapes and sizes, and to me the key question is making sure that it's done by the book, consistent with our lawful authorities.”

Dumb argument over this. Question really is whether it is legally done. Yes. FISA. Let us call it then Snooping. Same thing and legal
No squirrel it was not legal.
No squirrel it's still by definition not legal. Nice language squirrel. Nice to see you agree surveillance is spying!
Wray gave Barr reason to recommend to Trump to fire him, right there.
snooping spying survellance all the same and it is legal if FISA allowed it to take place. You are simply wrong. And to call names tells us about you and nothing about the legality you try to disown. You remain: DEPLORABLE, LOW IQ, Ill informed.
Splitting hairs. It was illegal and unprecedented.
No squirrel it's not legal just because FISA concurred. The only name I use is squirrel, but then again you earned it
By the way squirrel your "Pointer List" worked out real well didn't it. Just like all your efforts
