Full headline reads: CIA has a secret surveillance program that has been collecting Americans' personal information for YEARS without congressional approval, Democratic Senators say

Senator Ron Wyden, who has been a key allie against mass surveillance by the NSA and others, is the one leading the charge here again.

Edward Snowden, a former NSA contractor who blew the whistle on the mass surveillance of Americans’ telephone records, wrote on Twitter: “You are about to witness an enormous political debate in which the spy agencies and their apologists on TV tell you this is normal and OK and the CIA doesn’t know how many Americans are in the database or even how they got there anyway. But it is not ok.”

And Justin Amash, a former Republican congressman, tweeted: “Rogue agencies like the NSA, FBI, and CIA are a more serious threat to liberty in America than the enemies they claim to protect us from.”

Not in the slightest...

Even if all the people in government had Bernie Sanders or AOC like ideals, I wouldn't want even them to have this much power...

Let alone the far right extremists, who have absolutely no intention of doing anything right and actively want to become dictators...

If they achieve this ever somehow... I hope I am long gone from the USA... and that the main leader of such a movement has everyone else who helped him executed, so he can have sole power.

Why? Because people who help other people commit treason are worthy of such a fate...

Not that I think, this is the best option...

I would really like justice to return, but first the extremists/pretenders, need to go... in both parties...

Side Note, Bernie Sanders and AOC are an example of people I actually consider to be centrists...

People who think they are extreme, are way off base... given how Europe and most of the civilized world operates.

Also, I am beginning to wonder if America is very close, to becoming an uncivilized country in completion.

I very much hope that the opposite of what I describe here happens.

I Want to believe that, but who knows man...?
