This ignorant Krazy Kookie Kunt is beyond ridiculous.
She states that telecommunication companies will be shut down and that it's a promise, but doesn't elaborate.
Yeh, because she has no clue about how the most basic form of government works.
She was relieved of her committee assignments.
And I guess she doesn't remember the good ol' Patriot Act.
With such gems as:
Expanded surveillance abilities of law enforcement, including by tapping domestic and international phones;
Eased interagency communication to allow federal agencies to more effectively use all available resources in counterterrorism efforts; and
increased penalties for terrorism crimes and an expanded list of activities which would qualify for terrorism charges.
The "terrorism" isn't specified as foreign or domestic. It is/was for any and ALL terrorism.
And the constant bipartisan arguing over the reach of it.
[On May 11, 2012, President Barack Obama signed the PATRIOT Sunsets Extension Act of 2011, a four-year extension of three key provisions in the Act: roving wiretaps, searches of business records, and conducting surveillance of "lone wolves" (individuals suspected of terrorist-related activities not linked to terrorist groups).
After reauthorization bills failed to pass Congress, parts of the Patriot Act expired on June 1, 2015. The USA Freedom Act, which became law on June 2, 2015, reenacted these expired sections through 2019. However, Section 215 of the law was amended to disallow the National Security Agency (NSA) to continue its mass phone data collection program. Instead, phone companies will retain the data and the NSA can obtain information about targeted individuals with a federal search warrant.]
Lesson to be learned here! When Rushing to pass laws that take peoples freedoms like the PATRIOT act you never think it will be used against you or your PARTY!! Surprise!! Lawmakers for some reason never think the laws they pass applies to them!! Surprise!!
