Looks like finally a win for conservatives. FISA defeated.

[JWBooth]

Doofus retards whose imagination is so limited as to believe in the duopoly as the only possible way of understanding politics.

The deluded, biased Hillary loving pricks at FBI shouldn't have abused it.

The only pricks are people like Trump who have no idea what they're talking about. The bill addresses foreign actors abroad who are our enemies. Like the ones who plotted 9/11. But Trump is too much of an ignorant jerkoff to understand what's in the bill as are his lackeys in the HOR who are doing his bidding.

 

[Clipper]

That was Wednesday. Some of the idiots in the House are pushing a revised version of the FISA bill today.

House advances revised FISA bill after floor revolt, teeing up final vote

I hope it crashes and burns.

Bonespurs Trump signed an extension of The Patriot Act in 2018 saying he wanted to make it permanent. Now he's against it because he's a fucking traitor.

Those no good fucks in the HOR who continue to assist him in undermining our Country's security deserve to be run out of Washington on a rail.

Is anyone surprised that a new government power is somehow now essential?

There is no party that represents people who want less government.

Not to play devil's advocate here but a couple things come to mind.
1. Before the Patriot Act, there was a wall of separation amongst the "Alphabet Soup" agencies and thus, 9/11 occurred because nobody was allowed to communicate with each other, thanks to Bill Clintoon and Horseface Janet Reno.
2. Without the Patriot Act, sleeper cells like the Lackawanna Six would likely have not been captured.

You don't need to spy on citizens to solve the silos of intelligence problem, and yes, there is always a cost of freedom.

A win for conservatives usually means a loss for the US. This is no exception.

This is a major program.

In fact, our intelligence agencies say this is one of the things that keeps Americans most safe, and it expires just over a week from tonight. Section 702 is something that allows intelligence agencies to collect the communications of non-American suspects overseas.

This is an instance when Trump's ability to erode trust in our intel agencies after he threw them under the bus over their work showing the extend to which Russia supported Trump's candidacy in 2016 comes in to play. Like trained seals the worst of the Crazies in the House obediently nod their heads when Trump tells them to do something. Even when it makes the country less safe. All to the enthusiastic applause of The Following.

Nope, there sure isn't and if someone like that ever came along, the people would burn him/her at the stake.

Would be great if you could start sharing your stock picks. You are so dependably and consistently wrong about everything. We could all get rich taking the opposite positions.
