CIA
After World War II, President Truman signed the National Security Act of 1947, which officially established the CIA as a fully functioning intelligence office. The CIA was now responsible for collecting, evaluating, and disseminating vital information on political, military, economic, scientific, and other developments abroad needed to safeguard national security. However, as of late, the CIA has been accused of shifting their intelligence efforts domestically rather than abroad.
The agency has reportedly been spying on the senate intelligence committee, the committee that is in charge of policing the CIA. This would be a violation of the Separation of Powers Act embodied in the constitution. It would also go against the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, which prohibits the CIA from conducting domestic searches or surveillance. The CIA has denied these allegations, but it is a sign that the CIA has the ability to overstep their power and responsibilities without any consequences.
