Local groups urge CT delegation to back surveillance law reforms Groups such as Make the Road CT and Indivisible want changes to Section 702 of FISA. The House will try to reauthorize it this week.

Contact your reps. Tell them you don't want the FBI to be able to buy your data from data brokers especially with an administraton who has deemed the people to be its enemy. @jahimes.bsky.social #nosurveillance @50501movement.bsky.social

Congressional Black Caucus to Support Spying Powers Used on BLM Activists - The American Prospect The Congressional Black Caucus will support the clean reauthorization of FISA Section 702, a warrantless surveillance authority that has been used to spy on African Americans.

It looks like some Democrats are preparing to help the GOP reauthorize a little-known law that lets the government sidestep the Constitution and spy on US citizens.

Zero Democrats should vote to allow the regime to gobble up mass surveillance data to punish Trump’s enemies and round up immigrants.

Trump-GOP Panic over ICE Grows as MAGA Goes Off Rails: “Race Traitor!” With Republicans admitting ICE is political poison even as MAGA figures demand more brutality, The Contrarian’s Jennifer Rubin explains how Democrats can exploit this moment to split the Trump coaliti...

Dems should press hard for impeaching Kristi Noem right now, says @jenrubin.bsky.social.
