The last bit is the key point. There is zero accountability: it's asking the fox to guard the hen house. Mumbling words soon forgotten that can't be said with a straight face.
In short: it's a real accountability gap by the people that preach ostensible "accountability" and "transparency."
USG needs a 4th branch made of veterans, privacy and industry leaders (people that are both sharp and straight shooters) that have total access to surprise audit, defund and compel changes to any secret program. The only goal is to change behavior to "I probably shouldn't do [horrible thing] because [people more powerful than my CO/president] will find out." Even if it's just a phony whitehouse press release by the Yes Men.
