According to Sen. Richard Burr, the Chairman of the Senate Intel Committee;

"It's not too troubling to get a court order, what's troubling is that your going to have to go to multiple telecom companies....and at their pace, to search their records.  Which means it could take weeks. 

What we saw in Paris, once we got a cell phone, we used that number to look at cell phones it had talked to.  Not only Paris, but Belgium investigators, were able to expand the search that stopped a massive terrorist attack, an additional one in Paris, which has led to the potential apprehension of at least a dozen, if not more, ISIS operatives throughout Belgium, Germany and other parts of Europe. 

The United States made a real mistake when they eliminated this program, where we could search foreign known terrorist phone numbers if they talked to anybody in the United States.  I think that made sense to the American people, but Congress took that away.  Unfortunately, it's not going to be a timely tool in the future."

If it's easy enough to get a warrant first, as the Constitution requires government do. Then why wasn't the Gov getting those warrant's in the first place. Why was it instead running what is clearly an unconstitutional program which violates the privacy of every American the gov want's too. Hmmm Mr. Burr? Oh and yeah, Mr. Burr, you are one of those who needs to stop trying to use the threat of terrorism, to get American's to give up their God given rights.

A government, which tramples upon the Constitutionaly enumerated, God given rights of the citizen.

IS every bit the tyrannical, oppressive, terroristic regime, ISIS is.
