Senate rejects reauthorization of Patriot Act

[ElNono]

"give Trump"

They're giving the NSA, CIA, FBI, Homeland Security power to over Trump. Trump should've vetoed that sh**.

Those are all executive branch en ies. Trump can end them tomorrow if he so desires. But of course, he doesn't.

Yea, he can snap his fingers and they'll all be over.

[ElNono]

really? You can't be this ignorant about the Cons ution and the executive branch. Yeah, he can end them tomorrow if he so chooses.

That's the one branch of government that he has full control over.

You're ignorant of how has been working. There would be eight million lawsuits, which would include court ordered stays of execution.

So he's not doing it because he'll get sued? like that has stopped him before.

And honestly, no. One thing is trying to pass legislation through executive order, which is what's he's been sued on. Reorganizing the executive branch is exclusive to the executive.

Much like when Dubya created the DHS, and absorbed the INS with it, there's really nothing stopping him from doing it. Other than the fact tat he's part of that swamp.

[Spurtacular]

He's not doing it because he's not a revolutionary, not in that type of capacity at any rate. TBF, he didn't campaign on that. The guy that did was Ron Paul, and the media buried him.

I don't know what you think W creating more centralize power proves, tbh.

Oh no? What was draining the swamp all about?

I don't know what you think W creating more centralize power proves, tbh.

It proves the executive has the authority to create, modify and disband such executive posts. Nothing more, nothing less.

[Spurtacular]

You think drain the swamp referred to disbanding all those agencies?

Geez, even spurraider21 often refrains from philo'ing that hard.

You're really desperate, dude.

[Nathan89]

Patriot Act follows the same logic that leftists march the streets for tbh. I'm not sure why they wouldn't support it.

You tell me in your own words what draining the swamp in DC meant. Is the 'deep state' you often mention part of the swamp or not?

I'm trying to figure out the mental gymnastics you guys go through to detach Dear Leader from the he enables all the time, tbh... (see: Patriot Act above)

The Patriot Act is one piece of legislation that both Dems and GOP have no problem reaching across the aisle to pass, tbh.

That's a nice side step into something else. No ing way you thought drain the swamp meant disbanding agencies.

"Mental gymnastics" - Look in the ing mirror.

Hey, it's not me having to come up with excuses for the moron.

You keep dodging the question. What do you think he meant by draining the swamp. I'm not even asking you if he did or not, I'm asking what do you think he meant. Was the famed 'deep state' in the plans too?

[ElNono]

Are the NSA, CIA, FBI, Homeland Security part of the deep state? I wanna hear what you think here.

Do you support it?

For the record, I think it should be fully repealed

Spurtacular doesn't t give own takes, he just nitpicks others.'
