Awesome...now lets shine a light on FISA abuse rather than talk about Joe Scarborough. Please.

““I hope all Republican House Members vote NO on FISA until such time as our Country is able to determine how and why the greatest political, criminal, and subversive scandal in USA history took place!” Trump tweeted.”

LOVE to see him keep hammering our domestic enemies.

Although we do know how and why, and are waiting for delivery of justice, so we can be safer from those in 2025 who want us dead.

DOJ recommends veto because they have to jump through more procedural hoops to get their warrant.

FISA and all vestiges of the old Patriot Act must be eliminated entirely.

“...a sponsor of the measure, Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif.).”

While it is nice to have the current DOJ weigh in, just knowing Zoe is a sponsor is all one needs to know about the need to veto.

Wow, it’s not often you get pleasantly surprised in politics. I supposed we still have to wait for it all to play out, but so far so good.

“While it is nice to have the current DOJ weigh in”

DOJ is opposed because it does not give them enough power!

I’m not sure I understand what’s going on here. It sounds like Trump and Barr are opposing the current bill for different reasons. Trump thinks the process is still too powerful and subject to abuse. Barr thinks it has been watered down too much.

It’s hard to decipher this one. I trust none of the stakeholders on it except POTUS.

Agree. What a mess. Seems like Trump wants the swamp to kill the bill for now and make it a campaign issue.

This veto is very important. It sends a clear message to the Deep State.

Trump deserves serious praise for this but I doubt the media will give him credit.

They will try and play it down.

Notice there’s not much coverage of this and it’s IMPORTANT!

"...internal watchdog review did not find evidence that agents were motivated by bias in their decisions to open investigations into Trump campaign associates..."

Bias was blatantly and obviously present. That statement needs to be proven.

Just more verbal bilge meant to deflect.

Correct. Whenever a bureaucracy wants something you can bet its in their own interest.

IIRC, if this bill does not pass, FISA sunsets and goes bye-bye.
