Congress is full of a bunch of perverts and pedophiles controlled through blackmail and subversion.

I already doubt I will vote for him because I’m sick of the lesser than two evil game we play in America but this would guarantee there’s no chance I waste time at the polls this fall. What a fricking disgrace

This is already something I practice. I have been told more often than not that I am part of the problem. To those that feel this way I say, go frick yourself.

Unfortunately, that option is getting easier and easier.

Any non politician running for president would be fricked. Trump doesn’t realize how lucky he was to win and he needs to set up success for future non beltway politicians this would ruin any of that. He’s inviting the same shite that happened to him to others.

McConnell owns Trump.

no witnesses.

The timing of this is terrible. If Trump signs this into law he is no better than the rest and I lose a lot of respect for him. It was a bipartisan effort to restrict internet browsing data and it failed by 1 vote.

I wonder if the senators who voted against the amendment could point to one instance of an American life being by the use of looking at their browsing history.

I like how all those slimy frickers put Freedom in the name.

It's basically offering a sandpaper reach around while they frick us.

I’m pretty sure they have the votes for a veto override so it doesn’t matter if Trump signs it or not.

What is the downside to Trump vetoing this?

Nothing

McConnell slows his role approving judges?

Senate eases their circus bs nvestigation on China COVID, Hunter Biden etc?

frick that Trump has so much power. He can tank the senate for the GOP in 2020 and Mitch can be relegated to nothing.

Trump can easily openly criticize the GOP publicly and their isn’t a damn thing Mitch can do.

At a vote of 80-16, it's veto proof. He can't do anything about it.

You have a choice...vote for Democrats who will weaponize the FBI, CIA, DOJ, IRS, etc etc. Or vote for Trump because he might/might not sign the USA Freedom Act.

Which is worse?

I will be voting for Trump.

What's really sad is Lion Ted voted for this.

I thought he cared about freedom. Hell even that bitch Hirono voted no.

Rand Paul stands nearly alone and remains a stalwart in his fight against overreaching government as he votes no as well.

What the frick Ted?

Amazingly, Burr voted no as well.

I have been a huge Trump supporter.

The GOP does nothing. Trump is obsessed with TV shows and celebrity culture.

It's all a clown show. You give the GOP power and they just betray you.

There's no point supporting any of this shite anymore. Go go accelerationism. There's no other viable option anymore.
