Ideologically, sure, maybe. I assume you mean Republicans because historically that’s been the “law and order” party.
But for example the Jan 6’th protestors must have been targeted by this type of warrant, right? If you do a geofence warrant for anybody around the Capitol building that day and then explore out a couple nodes, who knows who you’ll find, right?
Overly broad warrants don’t benefit anybody I think. Investigations should be done based on solid evidence, not geographical coincidences.
(Edit: hopefully this does not come off as too partisan. I picked this event because if you are a solid Republican, you might think the investigations are overly broad, and if you are a solid Democrat, you probably think the events were openly bad enough that normal police work should be able to investigate them. I have an opinion as well, but I’m trying not to indulge in it too much or insult the other side. So, hopefully it can be agreed by both groups that geography is not great evidence).
