It is my hope enough vote against it so that the FISA court will be scuttled.
Bend over and prepare to get Bidened.
‘endorsing the illegal spying on Trump and his associates during his 2016 campaign and then his Presidency’
Trump himself signed the re-authorizations I think?
Not a slight on him but shows Deep state has so much power it’s incredible.
I trust the judiciary committee and what they go with...
Dont feed it or reshape it. End it.
The issue within the Intelligence Community was the definition of “collected,” which was the debate among senior Intelligence Oversight executives back in 2011-12 time period.
At issue was whether data of Americans could be passively collected and stored on US government servers. The policy was written in a manner that allowed it, because they defined the term “collected” to mean drawn from databases for analysis: and only at that time the appropriate Intelligence Oversight exemptions were to be applied.
The problem was.........once all the data is on servers readily available to be searched......the definition of actual analysis got shady.
They will fold.
Vote it up or vote it down - won’t make any difference.
The intel community has tasted the drug of snooping and it is hooked.
Do not give Biden and Deep State anything Mr Johnson. Your job from now until the election is to give them nothing.
Mad Jimmy Boasberg approves!
MAGA, TRUMP, NRA, FREEDOM ... - I just want to go ahead and get on record, because re-authorization will mean more of the same UNCONSTITUTIONAL spying that has been going on since "W" set it up.
Yea or nay, they’ll still do it.
End Five Eyes !
The only “terrorists” they spy on are their own heritage populations.
Last I heard there were 17 different “Intelligence Agencies” in the Federal Government. At the top is the CIA.
Many believe, myself being one, that you could cut employment in ANY federal agency by 50% without effecting “results”. And, “results” have been piss poor in recent decades across the board.
Such an employment CUT should be pre-emptive and START with any employee hired since January 20, 2009 (Obama sworn in).
If that’s more than 50% then so be it. Billions would be saved and “Intelligence” would most likely be much improved.
AND, most of all, the “Intelligence Communities” ability to influence, buy off and intimidate politicians would be cut dramatically.
