The NSA's mission is dictated by the government, and NSA is not authorized for domestic surveillance, as far as we know publicly. That duty falls on agencies like DHS and FBI, depending on the specific case.
And while the NSA technically could, and maybe even does so, on the down low (Google "parallel construction"), they aren't going to reveal, and thus burn, their TTPs in a domestic civil/criminal trial, when they could be using them to save large numbers of lives globally.
