My personal opinion on the FISA-702 reauthorization is well known {GO DEEP}. However, I am not naïve enough to believe there is enough DC support to stop it. {GO DEEP} That said, I am disappointed the reauthorization will not be attached to the Save America Act as leverage.
[Via Truth Social] – “I am working very hard with our Great Speaker, Mike Johnson, along with Chairman Jim Jordan and Chairman Rick Crawford, to get a clean extension of FISA 702 through the House of Representatives this week. I am asking Republicans to UNIFY, and vote together on the test vote to bring a clean Bill to the floor. We need to stick together when this Bill comes before the House Rules Committee today to keep it CLEAN!
I was a victim of the worst and most illegal abuse of FISA in our Nation’s History, by Radical Left Lunatics, who lied to the FISA Court to spy on my 2016 Presidential Campaign in their attempt to RIG the Election in favor of Crooked Hillary Clinton. Their use of this instrument in the 2020 Presidential Election was even worse! When the Dirty Cop, James Comey, the failed Head of the FBI, went after me, he was using FISA Title I, the Domestic Collection, not FISA 702, the Foreign Collection, which needs to be extended today.
While parts of FISA were illegally and unfortunately used against me in the Democrats’ disgraceful Witch Hunt and Attack in the RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA Hoax, and perhaps would be used against me in the future, I am willing to risk that as a Citizen in order to do what is right for our Country.”
“Our Military desperately needs FISA 702, and it is one of the reasons we have had such tremendous SUCCESS on the battlefield, both in Venezuela and Iran. Since the first day of my already Historic Second Term, my Administration has worked tirelessly to ensure these FISA Reforms are being aggressively executed at every level of the Executive Branch to keep Americans safe, while protecting our sacred Civil Liberties guaranteed by our Great Constitution. With the ongoing successful Military activities against the Terrorist Iranian Regime, it is more important than ever that we remain vigilant, PROTECT our Homeland, Troops, and Diplomats stationed abroad, and maintain our ability to quickly stop bad actors seeking to cause harm to our People and our Country.
The fact is, whether you like FISA or not, it is extremely important to our Military. I have spoken to many Generals about this, and they consider it VITAL. Not one said, even tacitly, that they can do without it — especially right now with our brilliant Military Operation in Iran. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”
I have outlined this seemingly inevitable construct with great detail; the systems creating the surveillance state for several years; culminating in a December 2024 recap [SEE HERE] along with my position in January of 2025 [SEE HERE]. I do not like it, but I understand the arguments behind it.
“I am disappointed the reauthorization will not be attached to the Save America Act as leverage.“
We all are.
Group it with the Save America Act.
Both pass or neither passes.
I would agree, but Dems and RINOS would sell out this country IOT to foil PDJT and his Presidency. Looking at it a different way: PDJT is PDJT. Dems/RINOs are equivalent of Iran’s mullahs/IRGC.
For decades.
brilliant, plain speaking

YES! Post of the day! I will say once again that we can not hate CONgress enough.
Are we a Republic any longer?
We are now what the Founding Fathers warned us of.
Betsy, What do you think? Something is amiss.
retigers post at the bottom of the page pretty much
sums things up. imo.
I agree with him, lolli.
For those of us who aren’t distracted by various and sundry diversions, and who look wider and further, it is clear the prince of this world is flexing his muscles. He has conscripted an army doing his bidding in every corner of his earthly kingdom.
That’s the only answer for what we are watching as far as I can make sense of everything…not just here but worldwide. And so it is important to remember that we are only passing through, in this world but not of it. We can’t know the day, but we are advised that it will come when we least expect it. And Christ, our only Redeemer and Advocate will return as promised.
There have been terrible times throughout history, so terrible that people must have thought then as many of us do now.
LP Hartley wrote that “the past is a foreign country.” I was much younger when I read that and so it didn’t make the impact upon me as it does at this moment. We shall not get it back, much as we might wish it, sis…and there are so many times that I do wish it. But being a realist as well as a wistful romantic for our America long gone, we can only stand strong, fight stronger for those who will follow us. In hopes that Almighty God will give us a chance to correct our course…and His mercies and help in doing so.
Armouring up in the meantime…
Thank you Betsy, you are right, we are just passing through, our home is in Heaven, and our job is to bring people with us, through the preaching of Jesus and the Cross
Ahh sorry to break it to you. Lincoln broke the Republic. The 17th finished it off
The Organic Act of 1871 reorganized Washington City, Georgetown, and the unincorporated Washington County in Maryland into the District of Columbia (Alexandria City and the County of Alexandria had been retroceded to Virginia in 1846). The Act also established a new government.
Also Presidential Proclamation of March 6, 1933 declared a Banking Emergency that has NEVER been terminated.
So yes, the Republic is hibernating.
WOW! Now that’s a LONG time!
My guess is this behavior probably goes back to the Garden of Eden.
In the years since Dirksen, both parties have gotten only bolder, more arrogant, and greedier. Fertile ground for the rampant corruption both are guilty of which has taken root.
Yes, sounds familiar.
Agreed..
Why are people agreeing with that quote. Republicans are NOT stupid. They are seditious traitors.
The Republican Party has changed since Dirksen’s time.
Stupid then, but now as you say. Posing and selling themselves as things which they are not. More akin, in truth, to the Dems.
All for One and One for All has come to refer only to members in their Big Club.

Ol’ Everett had their number, that’s for sure.

Very true comparison of Dems/Rinos to Iran’s IRCG. Much the same money/power corruption. May they all end up in the same place.

Representative Luna has been making statements that the two would be tied together…what happened?
<Representative Luna has been making statements that the two would be tied together…what happened?>
She was talking about Schiff and Swalwell in a hotel room 🙂
😆😆
LOL, Wordman! Since they are tied together, maybe someone should send them out the window….
She will get her legislative heart broken (again) and the Congresskritters will tell her (and us) “well, POTUS wants a clean bill so it passes easily.” That’s a load of horsehockey that everyone is aware of; Thune will especially appreciate the clean bill as it leaves him free of more perfidy.
She is one of the well-grounded members out of a total 435! Alone…she is powerless
Who has the clout and willingness to do that?
Perhaps we need to consider that congress has no intention of passing the Save America Act and therefore will not consider bundling it with anything they need.
W are currently being punished for wanting our borders closed I suspect that beating will continue.

There’s some questioning in the Atkinson transcript about Mary McCord and FISA within pages 189-193.
Thank you for that information!
I miss the 4th amendment. While the unauthorized searches are what give rise to the risks to citizens, the fact that the NSA even collects our data makes me miserable. If you don’t want your kids eating cookies, don’t stuff the cookie jar to begin with.
Edward Snowden tried to warn us…..
Social media is a contract
Accepting any of those apps
Waives the 4th amendment voluntarily
The NSA is just scraping what people give away for free

Nick Fuentes knows well the reasons why this 702 extension is agreeable to the President.
expand…?
Very disappointing that Trump supports reauth of 702 even as he was so persecuted by the same. This occurrence along with his comment regarding the Epstein list has me concerned for Trump.
He was persecuted with 701. It’s in his statement.
No he wrote FISA Title I, not 701.
But they DID use 702 against him as Sundance has long held and explained in detail, as revealed by the aggregate evidence against them.
Five Eyes surveillance was used to circumvent the “foreign” vs. “domestic” distinction.
Five Eyes evidence was all they had but lied about when they obtained a FISA Warrant.
701, 702. Whatever it takes!
😆 Pretty sure I see what you did there.
Great rewatchable flick. One of Keaton’s funniest. But Teri Garr was also at her best.
“This IS my bedroom, right?
I’m apposed to ANY reauthorization of the 702. I am apposed to ANY illegal, unauthorized surveillance of American citizens in any shape or form.
I am apposed to the FUSION CENTERS using their databases to collect information on private citizens for the sole purpose of destroying their lives.
Me too. Since Covid, I have soured on the word “Safe” for the rest of my life
Yes, and I have really soured on “2 more weeks…”
Not to mention the big excuse, “national security.”
Only rarely does that cry of wolf actually have teeth.
The silver lining for me is that PDJT usually knows when it does. As sundance says, the Prez isn’t in a position to deal with 702 now.
I just pray it’s on one of his multiple chessboards somewhere.
We are only safe with God.
The IC motto: In God we trust, all others we monitor! Not so sure on the God part anymore!
Why isn’t it attached, because the military needs it now for Iran?
No. It’s because those in power will not give up their corrupt ways and will continue stealing elections and spying on Americans.
Then they need removed. One way or another.
Easier said than done.
Ask Frodo at Mt. Doom.
Even Frodo could not destroy the ring. No one in Middle Earth could.
It should not be missed that a subtle influence from Eru Illuvatar made Gollum trip and fall into the fires of Mt Doom as he bit off Frodo’s finger bearing the One Ring.
Our military worked better LONG BEFORE FISA, don’t you think?
That we have military deployed conducting offensive operations in Iran is just a convenience. They would find some other reason because “but mah mah mah national security” if necessary.
“I am willing to risk that as a Citizen in order to do what is right for our Country.”
Well, I’m a citizen too, and I am not willing to take that risk. But of course, it’s not up to me. I’m just an ordinary tax paying American citizen.
God bless President Trump. I can only imagine the immense pressure he is getting from his military advisors and the usual clowns in the UniParty. I expected this to happen.
Nobody is perfect. President Trump is still our greatest president since Washington. Please President Trump-change your mind and tie FISA to the Save America Act!
Stephen Miller working for President Trump said, the budget deficit and National Debt is caused by fraud through the people that don’t belong here. … That comment might be a political hyperbole by Stephen Miller, but please at least have our government use the ‘FISA’ act against all the fraudsters and NOT against all the taxpayers. … All the nationwide fraud is like an enemy attack; it’s destroying our country.
FISA is suppose to ‘spy’ and find the terrorists. … The economic fraudsters and their >cronies in our country should be labeled as terrorists.
I agree.
Imagine if they renewed FISA 702 searches and then used them to actually surveil and *prosecute* all the treasonous snakes slithering around DC ..for a change? Wouldn’t that be such a HOOT?
NO DC JUDGE WOULD APPROVE IT.
And no DC grand jury would indict or jury convict. It’s why the Dems act with impunity.
One can dream…..
All in, Rs, Ds and independents support the Save America Act at 71%. Rs support it 90+%
By President Trump not demanding both FISA and The Save America act be rolled up into one bill and both must pass, how it that not a serous betrayal against all the citizens of the United States?
To me it looks like a spit in face and warrants suspicious cat. I’m open to being convinced otherwise.
This is how he keeps RINO’s on his side. You could say he is using it as leverage … or alternatively, he is being leveraged. I’m starting to think the latter.
Not good.
The point is they haven’t been on his side at all else there would be no reason to tie the two together.
I don’t think there’s anything suspicious going on with President Trump.
All of his military advisors have been doing the full court press on our President for weeks. They have convinced him that FISA 702 reauthorization is vital to the success of the powerful military our President built.
I think he’s wrong, but I don’t think he has been compromised in any way.
In PDJT’s mind, it’s reasonable to think the Save America Act is at least equally important if not more important than FISA. The SA Act has a far greater approval rate by the citizen voters than FISA.
So logical and easy for PDJT to use his bully pulpit to demand both together and follow through on the threat. We know the DS needs FISA and will do almost anything to keep it.
It looks like he is compromised. I pray that is not the case but I can’t see how it’s not.
In the real world there is no coincidence, only synchronicity. I’d bet there is a rhyme and reason for this chess move!
Our military folk thrown out over Covid are still fighting for their due as well. Definitely not the guy he was but that is you get for placing faith in any man
The Save America Act is a simple concept to understand, thus the approval rating. I would wager that 20% of Americans may know what FISA 702 is and that is being generous. BTW he’s not compromised.
Lets’s see if you get roasted ….I have had that opinion for quite some time….Could explain PT’s ignoring the domestic issues and resolved to a foreign policy legacy. Boy would that be wrong headed the candy store saved the lollipops but the store burned down.
There isn’t. Slick is just showing her true colors as a liar and phony limited hangout. Toting her bucket of agreement bots.
Are you intimidated? As long as Deep State is getting a pass this was always going to happen.
I certainly will not try to convince you otherwise. I just wiped the spit off my face. Not a good move, imo.
I’d like them to be connected, but…
Perhaps President Trump’s concern during our recent military operations is overriding his concerns with the abuse of 702.
And… he knows if they are connected, the Democrats will not approve either.
They are holding DHS hostage now, so there is nothing they won’t do to block Save America,
I don’t like this, but unless we can get our feckless Senate to nuke the filibuster, perhaps there is little other choice.
This is where I split with Trump. Dress it up how you will but stripping our privacy is about as anti-American as you can get.
Relax, congress has tds… that means if President Trump wants it… it will never pass.
I guess that means that US citizens are running and involved in foreign military networks, operations and campaigns. Otherwise, they wouldn’t need to un-Constitutionally spy on American citizens to do their jobs.
what a total load of horseshit.
How Naive of PT to think you could attach rules to the 702 and the DS would follow them. I remember him giving Hillary a pass.
Almost as bad as Britain. I worry about future elections. I think the Republican Party is finished because they were given the house. They were given the Senate. They were giving the presidency in what many people viewed is our last chance to save America and quite honestly other than not voting for a democrat, why does anybody have a reason to vote for a Republican again? They break promise after promise they do nothing. They’re no different than Democrats and honestly is the lesser of evil a reason to vote? Or should we look to the Libertarian?
Maybe Rs were given these branches, but we weren’t. Since 2020 my blinders have been off about these phonies and neither party gets a dime from me.
Either remove every establishment R or the party dies. All we get are CRs, time-limited tax cuts and slightly less than full-left judges. Thats the best this party offers.
WE SHOULD LOOK TO GOD!!!!!
No…..the People should discard this government and the 2 parties and move on.
– Did Susie Wiles or any other advisor consider joining the two?
– I haven’t seen Sundance mention the Trump nominees Thune keeps from confirmation. Why?
– What is Tulsi Gabbards next play?
– Nobody mentions the $220 Billion in DOGE-indentified waste, fraud, and abuse as yet unresolved by rescission bills. Is POTUS worried about the economy? Did he lose his mettle or focus? Thats only 22% of Elon Musk’s revised goal, and we’re still adding $1.8 Trillion per year in new debt (or more)
– tariff revenues are dropping; will that continue, or end?
many people on this site and other sites have been saying for many months that the WH needs to get refocused on our domestic issues and the economy. Things are not trending well at all. The list of big problems is long and getting longer. The pollyannas here will just whistle past the graveyard and that’s fine. It won’t change what’s coming in Nov if something doesn’t change domestically very quickly.
BTW: the GOP will blame Trump for their midterm give-aways. I have already seen news clips from places like Fox saying just that. The talking points are ready for the GOP. It will be Trump’s fault.
why maga doesn
t understand this,i have no idea.....fox hates trump but loves the wars....fox and the wsj(as the wsj works like heck to scuttle the save act)..but trump deserves much blame here,too(just being honest)...hes been compromised …who got into his head,im not sure.....maybe miraim adelson?...i dont think graham is smart enough….maybe kushner and some “please,daddy” from ivanka?…..if this continues much longer november will be a bloodbath…
This is where I see things heading and unfortunately anytime you express this concern it’s quickly dismissed as trolling.. things like high gas prices is just to easy for the media to get talking points to get people riled up. Also fits right into the manufactured “affordability crisis” we are now in thanks to Biden, but which will and is being used against Trump. He’s got do something big to change the domestic trajectory. I just don’t see enough of benefit from the Iran conflict to offset the negative domestic press/optics.
The US cannot continue as it’s been going. Socialism is built into the system and will function until we default on our debt.
Only then will the free riders get jarred loose and booted off. Nothing will be reformed with those opportunists voting us back into Left World.
“While parts of FISA were illegally and unfortunately used against me in the Democrats’ disgraceful Witch Hunt and Attack in the RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA Hoax, and perhaps would be used against me in the future, I am willing to risk that as a Citizen in order to do what is right for our Country.”
Well Mr.President, clearly if powerful rogue government corruption is misusing something illegally in a political lawfare conspiracy to unseat a duly elected President: then perhaps it’s NOT “what is right for our Country.” Wake up man!
the harsh reality is that government spying is taking place with or without legal authorization. Anyone that thinks these people give a crap about the law haven’t been paying much attention the past 10 years. Not saying this should be approved either. Just saying it’s kinda just window dressing. Our government is completely lawless and we have judges assisting their lawlessness.
True, only President Trump is following the law.
Bingo! And now that he can *finally* use that law against these TREASONOUS co-conspirators the ENEmedia would demand that he kill it.
Think about that.
And We, the People, really have no means at this point to effect permanent Constitutionally-based change of our lawless government.
Elections? Let’s not make ourselves laugh. Constitutional Convention? Won’t happen, and would be subverted by all the slime molds we want to wrest the government from. Supreme Court rulings in our favor? Would take approximately how many decades to make the changes needed? Forever many.
Looking more and more like Thomas Jefferson’s “refreshing the tree of liberty” might lie on the path of our nation’s future. Not that I am advocating that action, but one wonders — what’s really left to save this Nation?
people pinning their “hopes” on the GOP sure are kidding themselves. They are openly working against Trump, just like in his first term. I’m very surprised the President has kept his mouth shut about it all. He normally doesn’t need much to get going……..
Bullets
Only thing I can think of is a MASSIVE, GENUINE, IMMEDIATE return to God! We cannot protect ourselves if we are not on God’s side/good graces!!!
That is all that is left. So coming for the 2nd, forced injections or jail for “hate speech “ are my red lines
Sundance – that is the best idea in a long time. YES
Has the President retreated from his claim to not sign any legislation into law prior to the SAVE Act?
Moreover, not attaching the SAVE Act to the FISA bill may be a concession to Thune’s power to scuttle it.
Twice disappointing.
It appears so. I wish he would have followed through with that.
Although PT acknowledges he was “a victim of the worst and most illegal abuse of FISA” and that “parts of FISA were illegally and unfortunately used against” him during Russiagate, he only wants a clean reauthorization, meaning reauthorization of the exact same act as was used against him. While with a clean reauthorization it might be fine, so to speak, if it were only used by people who who will make sure it is not illegally or improperly used, we know that the same opportunity for illegal and improper use remains and is just waiting for bad people to abuse it again, and there are plenty such people embedded throughout the agencies that use FISA. This clean reauthorization, if it has to be done at all, misses the opportunity to put safeguards into the bill, such as to make clear it will be a felony to misuse this law to violate any citizen’s Constitutional rights.
The comment that the “military desperately needs FISA 702” begs the question of why? It was already legal without FISA to access foreign communications, so how could it’s use to access the domestic communications of citizens be so needed by the military for the success of overseas operations? While PT’s top people may be working “tirelessly” to ensure FISA is only used properly, the next Democrat to get in the WH will throw his reforms overboard in a New York minute and start using it again to go after their domestic political opponents. If FISA has to be reauthorized at all, the reforms he talks about must be incorporated into the Act itself.
Unfortunately even if FISA wasn’t renewed they’d, Uniparty/Ds, still do it. When do they follow the law.
“I have spoken to many Generals about this, and they consider it VITAL.”
If there was not a single General that spoke against it then that is a red light.
This would have been good reason to not approve it.
If there were some who spoke out, even a few, their reasons should have carried weight or even been decisive.
I smell a RAT….
I remember in Trump’s first term he publicly stated his concerns and basic opposition to civil forfeiture. He properly characterized it as government theft with no due process.
A few weeks later, a bunch of BillyJoeBob sheriffs from all over hell’s half acre bull-rushed the WH and met w/ Trump. He suddenly expressed his aggressive support for civil forfeiture. Go figure…..
I do NOT understand WHY the stupid R’s will not attach the Save Act to the FISA 702 reauth. This is ridiculous. FISA is a must pass bill so it is the perfect vehicle to attach the Save Act to.
Who has convinced President Trump that this is a good idea?
Why would you think the Republicans would want the Save Act to pass?
Too many of the Senate R’s are worse than stupid. They are mendacious in all the worst ways. If somehow the two bills were attached, with the SAVE Act intact, those people would happily let both be voted down. Then they would manufacture a “crisis” of some sort to ensure FISA would pass all by itself.
Yes. It’s pretty easy to see the media has drawn their own lines in the sand. Since when are their ultimatums ever in the best interest of the American people?
Down below is from the Moore v. United States (2024). Giving the opinion of the Court, Justice Kavanaugh clearly spells out, as have past SCOTUS opinions on what and who the income tax truly applies to. The 16th Amendment did not change the tax codes one iota!
Wouldn’t it be nice if everyone just started following the law and take away the politicians cash cows? Us! Well, not me of course, we’ve filed every year since 2013 and the IRS either returns our money or says $0.00 amount owed but there are times some low level agent, tries to place me and the wife back into the barn. 2013 folks, the politicians received nothing from us, and again, we file every YEAR, the proper way. Tax laws are what I truly and fully understand! Here’s the excerpt from Moore.
Because income taxes are indirect taxes, they are permitted under Article I, §8 without apportionment. As this Court has said, Article I, §8’s grant of taxing power “is exhaustive,” meaning that it could “never” reasonably be “questioned from the” Founding that it included the power “to lay and collect income taxes.” Brushaber, 240 U. S., at 12–13. In 1861, Congress enacted the Nation’s first unapportioned income tax. 12 Stat. 309. The Civil War income tax was recognized as an indirect tax “under the head of excises, duties and imposts.” Brushaber, 240 U. S., at 15; see also Springer v. United States, 102 U. S. 586, 598, 602 (1881).
In 1895, however, in Pollock v. Farmers’ Loan & Trust Co., this Court held that a tax on income from property equated to a tax on the property itself, and thus was a direct tax that had to be apportioned among the States. 158 U. S. 601, 627–628. The Pollock decision sparked significant confusion and controversy throughout the United States.
Congress and the States responded to Pollock by approving a new constitutional amendment. Ratified in 1913, the Sixteenth Amendment rejected Pollock’sconflation of (i) income from property and (ii) the property itself. The Amendment provides: “The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration.” U. S. Const., Amdt. 16 (emphasis added).
Therefore, the Sixteenth Amendment expressly confirmed what had been the understanding of the Constitution before Pollock: Taxes on income—including taxes on income from property—are indirect taxes that need not be apportioned. Brushaber, 240 U. S., at 15, 18. Meanwhile, property taxes remain direct taxes that must be apportioned. See Helvering v. Independent Life Ins. Co., 292 U. S. 371, 378–379 (1934).
What a shame that no one wants to learn the actual tax laws. You might be surprised when you find out that everyone was convinced that a certain Amendment changed all that, it didn’t! I know these laws like the back of my hand! Test me.
There’s cash cows and then there’s CASH cows and the politicians rely on those… CASH cows!
sure looks like the g.o.pe. has regained total control…….so disappointing….so unsurprising…
He negotiates with Iran better than he does Congress.
Blockade Congress!
Admin, my apologies on the recently “Waiting on Approval” removal as I didn’t realize all the hyperlinks were attached. By bad and I fixed them so I may post again. 😊
Thanks Admin, I was just highlighting areas that were of importance so everyone could understand what and why the 16th amendment was ratified but then I happened to scroll down and saw my original comment. Yay.
It’s amazing to me that everyone posting seems to know more than President Trump and his team. I guess everyone has top secret clearances or access to the NSA database.
No, we do not know what all our President knows.
But, we do know spying on Americans is unconstitutional.
I guess our constitution means nothing, anymore.
You can’t reverse 150 years of corruption in four years. This takes time let it play out and relax.
We have access to Sundance.
If you can’t get what you ask for, you might as well ask for what you’re going to get…
noting: spying on anyone without a real reason to justify it under the constitution, is not just wrong, but criminal. period. the constitution was not made to flex under the pressure of some boogie man, undeclared. one must declare with evidence before a judge with evidence that is obvious, unmuttable, proven and with witnesses.
how we have fallen.
also noting: the modern secret police spy state is nothing more than actionable intelligence that is used to gain financial advantages. period. there is no other kind of information that is more important that KNOWING the minds, the finances and the predicatable choices of a society to use its money. The secret police spy state has this kind of information…it makes billionaires salivate at the true possibility for access. it makes politicos completely undress themselves and serve money, because this acts just like an open ATM machine.
all you have to do is renew the FISA 702. and then you will be one of us…the rich, the untouchable, and you don’t have to answer to your constituents…they can look at you from the point of view of power and wealth and will live, for better or for worse, vicariously through you example of how to STEAL MONEY.
it’s bad, really bad…worst than any kind of big ugly.
the entire world, THE PEOPLE, are now aware: big money depends on the secret police spy state.
it will get much much more dangerous to live and dissent as a Patriot from this point forward.
we have depended on the good will and honor of our leadership…meanwhile they have betrayed that trust.
and what is the answer…?
something far more powerful than even MAGA?
let this be a warning. get your house in order, and prepare…it’s going to be a very difficult time henceforth.
can you be unfraid? yes, but this means you must distruct and pave your own way and abide in the Lord Jesus, Son of God.
HE IS RISEN
God Bless America
God Bless America
You nailed it. 👍
In other words… There is no voting our way out of this.
No, no there is not.
Thank you! AMEN!!!
America is dead, we are presiding over it’s funeral,, we have become too soft to fight, and because of social media, it’s easier to keyboard than actually do something. I have marched and talked and moved and polled and voted, and nothing has worked. Now I am old, and there’s nobody to pass the baton to. I have fought hard and well, but there comes a time to lay it down, and I think we’re there.
Money is the new God. Which God do you think Trump worships ?
Thank you for your wisdom regitiger.
Psalm 23
“The Lord is my shepherd;
I shall not want.
He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside the still waters.
He restores my soul;
He leads me in the paths of righteousness
For His name’s sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
For You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil;
My cup runs over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days of my life;
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord
Forever.“
It needs to be DOA! It is not a necessary apparatus to protect the nation. It only violates our rights, even making the charged unable to see the evidence against them. It is un-Constitutional and a tool of the IC.
Trump doesn’t care about spying and sedition.
The sickening part of the whole thing is Patel, Bondi, and Ratcliffe will be leeching of Trumps name for the next 30 years.
One thing that is frequently overlooked in discussions of FISA abuse:
There isn’t anything backstopping FISA. It’s not as if we’ll get rid of it and the abuse will stop. The abuse will be completely untethered and unchecked.
FISA may be a fig leaf, but the fig leaf is all there is
Some people abuse their right to use guns. Maybe they should take away all our guns.
Do we REALLY suppose there is NO Muslim, terrorist, CITIZEN anywhere in the country conspiring to blow something up? Nope! Can’t investigate Citizen Mohammed even if he regularly calls Syria and sends Ramadan cards to Iran.
Boy, our VSGDJT is a real POOPY-HEAD, all of a sudden!
Remove the exemption for Congress and add some jail time and loss of pension for abusers.
There is no such thing as a “Clean FISA 702.” We have to recognize the dangers the Internet has inflicted on society and try to find a way to overcome. But, we will not overcome by anything that is approved by a corrupt congress. Right now, we have no defense mechanism. 702 is a totalitarian dream come true.
Never quit. Never give up. God is good. Our light shines and the fruit is good when we do not give up, lose hope, or abandon faith.
Never lose the willingness to pledge our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor.
We as a nation of individuals are not digging deep enough. Myself included.
Even in prison.
Even if flogging.
Even is martyrdom.
Even in crucifixion.
Even when our brothers betray us, try to kill us, and leave us for dead in a well
What does PDJT mean by a “clean” passage of 702. What specifically makes it clean, and how is that better.
What will be the safeguards for us and innocient people.
What will be the consequences for the violators. The ones we caught need to be punished so severely that no one ever thinks about doing it again
“Clean” means a stand alone bill that is not linked to any other bill in order to pass.
For What Its Worth
Trump is up against a machine that has no moral compas. Perhaps he feels he needs this tool to Preasure, Persuade or Prosecute.
Personally i would like all the info three steps from Hunter Biden, and all the members of the squad. Track the dealings of all the foriegn money circulating in and out of our political world.
Do you think we could get a legitimate warant on any of these people through the courts?. You do know that a president can request a Fisa all by himself no checks no signoffs.
So lets assume Trump fights Fisa. All those saber rattling war pigs D and R would support an impeachment if for that reason alone. Lets say he survives it, 3 years from now a new president take your pick of any and FISA is reinstated .
Genies out of the bottle I would rather have five Fing Eyes gouged out of their heads then a pointless FISA fight
If the IC and the FBI could be trusted to use the 702 legitimately without violating Americans 4th Amendment rights, then it would be a good tool to have.
But the IC and FBI have proven their lack of fidelity to the law and unwillingness to abide by it. So it should be withheld.
I admit that I don’t understand the President’s unqualified willingness to continue this abomination of the Constitution. And I’m not going to speculate. We’ve all done that to no universally accepted conclusion.
There is NOTHING in the FISA Act that is needed by the military. Zilch. Zip. Nada. In fact, the military should have absolutely nothing to do with it and shouldn’t make any use of it. There job is to protect our nation against EXTERNAL enemies. Spying on Americans is out of their lane. Further, there is ZERO reason to have it exist at all – it is nothing but a vehicle for abuse and the circumvention of the rights of the citizens of our great nation.
It’s generally a foregone conclusion that this advise will continue but will Democrats oppose it because Trump favors it unconditionally?
Will reminding the public and Democrats that the unconditional practice was used against Trump also remind them that he may use it against them?
“I will not sign any legislation until Congress passes the Save America Act” DJT sounded good at the time…
What legislation has President Trump signed since he said that?
Wait until it comes out the Swalwell evidence came from an illegal 702 search. Then what?
“The shaft of the arrow had been feathered with one of the eagle’s own plumes. We often give our enemies the means of our destruction.” Aesop
Shucks, my thinking from the cheap seats section is that the 702 extension should be tied with the Save Act and DHS funding Bill for a triple play!
The FISA “court” is a blot on our legal system and needs to be abolished. I would veto it and make Congress override.
Until all those involved in the FISA abuse used to destroy their political opponent are prosecuted and punished for their actions I don’t support the extension.
