And this is the myopic, misinformed idiocy that makes this the most dangerous American election since 1860. A 'college student and barber' who, based on his commentary, is absolutely clueless.

The most important national security decision the House will make this year. I'll take a 2-year extension of Section 702 in exchange for turning away the ill-advised demand for warrants. The process was a shameful mess, but the outcome is critical.

No one is using FISA Section 702 to spy on Americans. Americans communicating with foreigners targeted under Section 702 may be incidentally collected - and this is entirely permitted by the 4th Amendment.

For you to say otherwise is inaccurate and constitutionally illiterate.

You’ve aligned yourself with the DC Cartel that insists on spying on Americans and violating the Bill of Rights.

President Trump, who you claim to support, said to “kill FISA” just days ago.

Join us in passing a reasonable warrant requirement amendment.

Dumb ... and ... dumber. Timeworn, I know, but right on point.

Shut up, Dersh. Just shut up.

Stupefying!

Why in the world would some of these congressional representatives receive PPP? And so much! Did they have separate businesses independent of their elected positions? Gaetz? Space laser Taylor-Greene?

This is not correct David Sacks

Assad did in fact use chemical weapons against Syrian opposition forces and civilians

I was working on Syria at CIA at the time. The facts in the intelligence picture were clear.

This is not about politics. It’s about hard facts

It is beyond pathetic that a foundation named after a US president is caving to a thug who tried to overthrow the government.

And, to be clear, the 702 bills promoted by the Freedom Caucus and Mike Lee would require a warrant not just with respect to US citizens but also for 'persons reasonably believed to be located in the US at the time of the query' - e.g., foreign spies and terrorists. Yikes!!

Those looking to gut the legislation seeking to reauthorize Section 702 have become real fire breathers now that the FISC has approved the conduct of the Section 702 program for another year - so that there are no immediate calamitous consequences from their idiocy.

To be clear, Michael Mclaughlin is not a lawyer, has no legal training, and cannot support his scurrilous accusations. If you're looking for a partisan hack on the federal judiciary - you can start with Aileen Cannon. And, if you're just looking for a hack, you can go with Michael Mclaughlin.

This is almost certainly correct.

Agree that dropping the prosecution would be a serious mistake - from both legal and national security perspectives. We can quibble about the parameters of an appropriate resolution but there are good reasons not to simply allow this to lapse.

Terrorism and any number of other national security threats. In short, the most important foreign intelligence collection program available to the U.S. government. And these Luddites want to gut it.

Lee is an absolute carnival barker. None of the bills that have been introduced regarding the reauthorization of Section 702 has called for a 'clean' reauthorization. Lee's bill, the SAFE Act, is one of the worst of those bills.

Only because the FISC has the common sense that you utterly lack. Your SAFE Act with its unnecessary and unwieldy warrant requirement is no compromise bill, as you insist, and makes no American safer.
