ed. 324 pages (Patriot Act) but hardly anyone read it.
“Congress rushed to pass legislation to strengthen security controls. On October 23, 2001, Republican Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner introduced H.R. 3162 incorporating provisions from a previously sponsored House bill and a Senate bill also introduced earlier in the month. The next day on October 24, 2001, the Act passed the House 357 to 66,[5] with Democrats comprising the overwhelming portion of dissent. The following day, on October 25, 2001, the Act passed the Senate by 98 to 1.”
Congressman Jim McDermott said that no Senator had read the bill

Here is Soros Globalization book and his Fast Track Treaty references.
1. Generality - Laws shouldnt be specially carved out to benefit one group or to attack or harm a narrow group of individuals.
2. Prospectivity - This is the constraint on ex post facto laws. Laws should always apply in the future and never to the past.
3. Publicity - Laws should be broadly published and well known, both to the representatives themselves and general public.
4. Consent - Laws must be generally acceptable to those who will live by them.
5. Proper due process - Due process means that the law is meted out equally and fairly with each similar crime being treated the same. Justice must be blind.
This bill violates at least 3 of the above.
I thought Jeff Sessions was against it. He was a few days ago.
Thank you!
The entire GOP has sold out to Soros and his cohorts on our freedoms .
What is coming our way after this treaty is ram thru could be a nightmare.
Sessions opposes it, or he sure sounds like he does.
This TPP or TPA bill is the worst bill ever:
The controversial TPP, of course, is disguised as a treaty to promote free trade more properly described as managed or corporatist trade among nations surrounding the Pacific. However, the TPP agreement, currently being negotiated behind closed doors by governments, dictatorships, and special interests, includes some major surprises. As The New American reported recently, a leaked chapter of the TPP deal would create NAFTA-style international tribunals with the purported authority to override American laws, courts, and even the U.S. and state constitutions all for the benefit of special interests, foreigners, and crony capitalists. The American people and self-government would be the big losers.
Another chapter of the agreement making headlines this week, meanwhile, purports to regulate immigration policies among TPP signatories. The Trans-Pacific Partnership includes an entire chapter on immigration, observed Curtis Ellis, executive director of the American Jobs Alliance, in a post for The Hill. It is a Trojan horse for Obamas immigration agenda. House members who were ready to defund the Department of Homeland Security to stop President Obamas executive action on immigration must not give him TPA, which he will use to ensure his immigration actions are locked in when he leaves office.
Someone please wake me from this nightmare. What planet am Ion???
Everything is a victory for Obola. the only time he loses is before the court. The legislative branch is a treasonous joke.

My friend, who is a friend of Paul Teller, got no answer from him. He was quite disappointed. The word arrogance was used and expletives used about all the Republicans.
We have been sold out with this Congress who has not done squat except to let Zer0 run all over them.
I will ask my friend to resend his email. Senator Ted Cruzs vote for the Trans-Pacific Partnership was not what we expected. This bill, shrouded in secrecy may be a huge hit on the middle class. With Zeros hand in it, you can be sure it is a Trojan Horse for my Government control.
I will keep you posted.
Thanks.
