They are supposed to be spying on non-Americans only. Keep in mind the US has a long-standing distrust of a porous boundary between military and law enforcement embodied in things like our 3rd Amendment, The Posse Comitatus Act, and more. These have been eroding fast unfortunately since Reagan era (and maybe even arguably since Carter signed FISA), but they are major aspects of American governance.
