This morning at 10:00 ET we are liveblogging the Senate Intelligence Committee's hearing on Section 702, the provision of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act set to sunset at the end of this year.

The committee will hear testimony from four senior officials: Director of National Intelligence Daniel Coats; Acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe; National Security Agency Director Adm. Mike Rogers; and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein. FISA is the focus, but given the lineup, you can expect some questions relating to President Trump and the Russia investigation and some previews of what to expect from tomorrow's hearing, when former FBI Director James Comey will testify before the same committee.

Video of the hearing is available here and below.
