Today, while everyone is distracted by the impeachment drama, Congress will vote to extend warrantless data collection provisions of the #PatriotAct, by hiding this language on page 25 of the Continuing Resolution (CR) that temporarily funds the government. To sneak this through, Congress will first vote to suspend the rule which otherwise gives us (and the people) 72 hours to consider a bill.

The scam here is that Democrats are alleging abuse of Presidential power, while simultaneously reauthorizing warrantless power to spy on citizens that no President should have... in a bill that continues to fund EVERYTHING the President does... and waiving their own rules to do it.

And you can be sure Trump will sign the bill because he is for increasing presidential power and he doesn't seem to care about our civil liberties as his support for "the surge," pre-crime, a way “to identify mass shooters before they strike,” Trump said during the International Association of Chiefs of Police conference in Chicago.

“My administration is addressing the vile acts of mass violence. … A few weeks ago Attorney General Barr sent a letter to all law enforcement agencies announcing he will lead an effort across the government to use the most proven methods of fighting terrorism and violent crime, to identify, assess and engage potential mass shooters before those shooters strike.”
