So if spying on "people* is legal why does spying on "a person" need to be investigated?
Simple:
Both are illegal. Just because there is a law on the books (Patriot Act) does not mean it is legal. It is an overt violation of the 4th Amendment and no amount of corruption makes it legal. It was illegal and will always be illegal because it exists directly in defiance of our inalienable rights codified in the US Constitution. 👆
Also, your question is more honestly represented when framed as follows:
So if spying on "people" is illegal why is rigging the election and trying to use corrupt means to do so (like Hillary did) by colluding with foreign entities (collusion and perhaps treason) and spying on "a person" also illegal?

So it's both legal and illegal.
Marvelous. Glad we cleared that up.
