They hate you. They really, really hate you.
The House of Representatives is finalizing a bill to continue their FISA warrantless spying on American citizens.
It appears the House is ready to pass this forward — even after the federal government was caught illegally spying on President Trump – and got away with it!
Rep. Thomas Massie reported on Monday that Congress gave itself a carve out in the reauthorization of the FISA 702 warrantless spying bill.
The FBI will have to notify Congress and seek consent before violating the privacy of a member of Congress.
But the rest of America is on its own. The FBI can abuse your rights at anytime.
Rep. Thomas Massie reported that Congress gave its members a special carve out in the latest version of the FISA bill.
From the proposed legislation:
Requirement: The Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation shall promptly notify appropriate congressional leadership of any query conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation using a query term that is reasonably believed to be the name or other personally identifying information of a member of Congress, and shall also notify the member who is the suject of such query.

This will persuade many members of Congress to vote yes. pic.twitter.com/usKVeNnq3b
