I spent over 10 years trying to show how FISA 702 means sacrificing your rights and creating serious dangers of surveillance abuse, and he .... just tweeted it out?

To borrow a brilliant summary from @LizaGoitein
If this law was a new proposal not a renewal and Trump was demandingโฆ
Warrantless surveillance. That swept up Americans. That the FBI could use to query Americans comms. With no court approval
Not a single Dem would vote for it

House Armed Services Committee top Democrat @RepAdamSmith says heโs โundecidedโ on a clean FISA extension and โdeeply concernedโ about giving Trump powers.

JAMIE RASKIN, top Democrat on House Judiciary, says at the House Rules Committee that he will oppose a clean extension of FISA.
He said "FISA needs independent guardrails" from Trump admin.

Big swath of House Dems -- including CHC, CAPAC and CPC -- sending a letter to leadership outlining changes they want to a 702 bill
Comes as GOP leadership pushing forward w/ 18-month clean extension even as they don't currently appear to have the votes

Johnson's comments come as there's some frustration from his right flank who feel like leadership/WH just wants them to swallow clean 18-month extension
House Dems as @meredithllee and I scooped working on possible back up plan
Rs also eyeing shorter clean extension
Cami Mondeaux@cami_mondeaux
Speaker Johnson this morning on what FISA bill vote will look like this week: โItโs going to be a clean extension. If we put amendments on it, it jeopardizes its passage, and it's far too important.โ

Reauthorizing FISA Section 702 without any reforms to protect privacy would be a major disservice to the American people.
I urge Congress to consider my amendment to close the data broker loophole and restore Americansโ Fourth Amendment protections. politico.com/live-updates/2โฆ

I vote with GOP 91% of the time, but thatโs about to go to 90%.
I wonโt vote to let feds spy on you without a warrant.
FISA 702 allows the government to search for your information in vast databases compiled while targeting foreigners.
The White House sent me this email today:

The simple answer is because his claim is false.
Congress does not have the ability to audit FISA 702 queries for propriety. They depend on the DOJ for oversight, and even if that review is trustworthy it does not occur in "real time"
English
If @jahimes actually had ability to detect FISA 702 abuse in real-time, why didn't he alert the public when it was abused to query BLM protesters, or lawmakers, or Congressional staff, or 19,000 campaign donors, or a judge reporting civil rights violations?

After 3 days stranded by @AmericanAir โ with cancelled flights, no help, & reclassifying missing crew to avoid responsibility โ we had to buy tickets on another airline just to get home.
Hoping leadership see this, make it right, and treats others better #AmericanAirlines

Clearview AI runs a sponsored piece in Police1 saying critics push facial recognition "myths" and "debunks" false claims, such as notion that you can scan images of any quality
Hmm, wonder where folks got that wild idea from? (They got it from Clearview AI marketing materials)
English
In 2017, just one state (Oregon) restricted facial recognition, and only did so in a very limited way. By the end of 2024, FIFTEEN states now have laws limiting police use of facial recognition, and these limits involve increasingly strong guardrails
English
Overall, weโve seen ongoing trend and encouraging momentum for limiting facial recognition surveillance at the state level, with a growing set of states enacting increasingly strong regulations for police use of this AI surveillance technology

Not voting for Pramila Jayapal because you want an arms embargo on Israel is the kind of high-IQ move I've come to expect from Twitter leftists
โจtaylor - she/herโจ@TaylorrObvi
None of these Dem Party clowns get my vote. I'm voting for things I believe in: socialism and an immediate arms embargo. I am also rooting for Jill Stein. She'd be my 2nd if we had ranked choice. I can say confidently I will never regret this ballot. Will you regret yours?

@OrinKerr I think the case that Upstream + "Abouts" collection (or, since its FISA 702, a domestic version with a warrant obtained for the targets) complies with the Fourth Amendment is *very* hard to make
English
@OrinKerr This strikes me as best email comparison (maybe best comparison in general) to geofence:
1) Non-govt entity with access scans 4A protected content per govt order
2) The content itself is what determines responsiveness
3) The content may be totally disconnected from criminality
