But intelligence committee members said the Judiciary Committee folks don’t understand “the nuances” of the program

When that word "nuance" is uttered in DC, it is sure to be followed by a river of unmitigated BS.

Once again, the govt is aligning itself against we, the people, in order
to carry out spying and other rights violations against US citizens.

HAPPENING NOW-—A bipartisan group of senators is quietly trying to renew Section 702 of FISA for 12 more years by slipping it into a “must-pass” defense bill.... the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA)..... which is set to expire on Dec 31.


Call Congress NOW
(202) 224-3121
Tell them your state and zip, they’ll connect you.

MESSAGE -— 54 Bipartisan Lawmakers Urge Speaker Johnson
Not to Slip “Deep State Surveillance Authorization” in Defense Bill

Congress should strip funding from the censorship group, NewsGuard, in the latest National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) since it received a $750,000 taxpayer-funded grant from the Department of Defense.

If a govt organization is suspected of having political bias, that’s unconstitutional.
The US government cannot support that w/ tax dollars.

And this: a very pertinent point regarding the “outsourcing of censorship.”

NDAA SECTION 1532 “That which government is
constitutionally prohibited from doing, it cannot
contract with others to do.”

Congress must make sure that Section 1532 is preserved in the final version of the NDAA.

As in Russia and Germany, govt authorities in Ireland want access to the citizenry’s private social media conversations. The govt wants to spy on and punish citizens’ anti-mass migration sentiment following riots in Dublin over immigrants killing Irish children.
<><>those on WhatsApp chat groups will be under govt surveillance w/ “hate speech legislation”
<><>govt authorities could demand “cell site location data” from cellphone companies,
<><>cell phone companies to be compelled to help the govt locate dissidents
<><>the proposed law would create “de facto mass surveillance of the entire population.”
