Fisa surveillance vote sparks fierce debate as Congress splits on warrantless monitoring Donald Trump says he is ‘working very hard’ with House Republicans to extend Section 702 without changes

While Trump is trying to set up a dictatorship, there's a bipartisan effort in Congress to preserve the government's ability to conduct warrantless bulk surveillance.

If any Democratic consultants are wondering why people united in hating Trump have trouble trusting Democrats - this is one reason.

I'd settle for the "center left".
