Feds demand information on protesters...

Am I an asshole for thinking at least this is going through the legal channels, as opposed to if it were a suspected terrorist org that the NSA/CIA would have already had access to all the IPs?  

Even if they did/do have the identities of the protesters already they would want the warrants for a couple of reasons. The evidence from the NSA/CIA wouldn't likely be admissible in court. More importantly the NSA/CIA would have to come into court and explain in detail how they got the information, having to not only awkwardly admit that they were spying on US citizens but even worse would have to spill the technical secrets on how they did.  Those exploits don't come cheap nor easy and they would be loathe to give them up.
