Would "unauthorized surveillance" or "improper surveillance" be more acceptable words to you? And would it have not helped his boss if he had used those terms rather than "spying"?
Because it was unauthorized or improper surveillance (would that be equivalent to "spying"?) that he was concerned about and that he wanted to investigate.

I didn't assume that it was unauthorized or improper. Barr, in response to questioning his use of "spying" said that he was concerned with unauthorized or improper surveillance. I think that it is very clear what he meant by "spying."
You're the one who's "assuming" he meant something else.
BTW, I find it telling (not assuming anything) that you're perfectly fine with SCOTUS Judges applying totally different meanings to words in the Constitution than the original meanings of those words when it was written. But in this far, far, far, less important synonymous (not actually different in substance) usage of a word you get all high and mighty about it not being what the supposedly traditional meaning is.

No, it isn't. But nonsense, as you've demonstrated here, comes very easily to you, almost an automatic knee-jerk.
