This is how the Constitution dies.

Brought to you by the House GOP.

Mike Johnson is a wolf in sheep’s clothing. A total fraud.

Sure seems that way. And there are many more Republicans like that.

go here
https://www.intelligence.gov/ic-on-the-record-database/results/707-section-702-overview

and click on the section 702 link to bring up the PDF describing what the section does.

WHO CAN’T THE IC TARGET UNDER SECTION 702?
•U.S. persons, regardless of location
•Any person located inside the U.S.
•A foreign person located abroad for the purpose of targeting a U.S. person or person inside the U.S.with whom the foreign person is communicating (often called “reverse targeting”)

I don’t agree with him on this but our priority needs to be the election of Trump and of a more republican Congress in both houses so I’m not ready to get on the bandwagon of throwing anybody out until we have the reinforcements in place.

The Ukrainian "aid" will be passed next, and then Johnson will step down, IMO. I think the only answer, as difficult as it may be, is to start a new party. The GOP is a dead party walking at this point - the party (not the voters) appears to have no core beliefs, which in turn leads to them rubber-stamping the anti-American Democrat agenda. What a mess.

no it does not. Read what the section actually does before hyperventilating and jumping off a cliff.

Anyone remember when liberals claimed to be against all this?

*************

That was before they gained control over the government and our institutions. Now that they run everything they have an insatiable desire for POWER.

“Passing the amendment would mean that the communication between the putative US pro-Hamas people would be out of bounds to listen in on.”

No it would not. They would only need to get a warrant.

The current red flag warning about an terrorist attack on the horizon scared the politicians. You just know there’s one in the back pocket of the TLA’s just in case.
