Mitch McConnell is pushing the Senate to pass a law that would let the FBI collect Americans' web-browsing history without a warrant

The Senate is expected to vote Wednesday to renew the 2001 Patriot Act

So, the same act that the Dems have been supporting.

When the Dems become the party of personal liberties, let me know. I might join them.

Why would Moscow Mitch want to give this power to the Deep State?

Why would the President let him?

Do you not need 60 votes in the senate to pass such insane law? And the House?

Because the Democrats control the Deep State and use the FBI as an arm to defeat political opponents like Donald Trump, obviously. So I don't get why Trump and McConnell would give them this kind of ammo.

10 Dems voted with him, and Bernie was a no-show. The amendment passed by 1 vote. This is why everyone hates Dems, just less than Repubs.

Should've blued the text I guess, but I thought the sarcasm was obvious.

Now lefties or liberals are about freedom and rights. But when it's their team who are in violation of rights...crickets. Gotta love the wonderful knee-jerk reaction of politics.

This is all fascinating information, thank you for your sincere responses. I guess I don't understand, then, why he hasn't been drained from the swamp by the Swamp Drainer in Chief.

To be clear, this was the Wyden(D) amendment which Mitch voted against. It got nearly 2 dozen Republican votes, failed to pass with 59.

My mistake.
That was supposed to link back to that rather dim witted spurtacular’s post not yours.

Idiot Trash supporters don’t seem to realize that what Moscow Mitch, Barr and Trash seeks is control beyond accountability. Such morons.

Another amendment drafted by McConnell would give the attorney general more oversight of FBI investigations into political operatives, like the recent FBI investigation into the Trump campaign.
