Confirmed: US government records ALL private telephone calls

• naturalnews.com
 In an inadvertent admission that likely made his former bosses cringe, retired FBI counterterrorism agent Tim Clemente, in a May 1 interview with CNN's Erin Burnett regarding the Boston Marathon terrorist bombings, clearly insisted that the nation's primary law enforcement agency was clearly capable of recording all private telephone calls.

From Glenn Greenwald, of Britain's The Guardian newspaper:

The real capabilities and behavior of the U.S. surveillance state are almost entirely unknown to the American public because, like most things of significance done by the U.S. government, it operates behind an impenetrable wall of secrecy. But a seemingly spontaneous admission this week by a former FBI counterterrorism agent provides a rather startling acknowledgment of just how vast and invasive these surveillance activities are.
