When Section 702 was passed - and again, its only purpose was to retroactively legalize Bush/Cheney's illegal domestic warrantless spying - civil liberties groups warned it would destroy 4th Am values. Now, the only chance to prevent Biden's renewal demands is with GOP votes.🤷‍♂️ — PolitiTweet.org

I'd bet that enough Republicans join with Dems to give Biden what he wants. But note: NYT says it will be hard because many Republicans "have adopted Trump's distrust of security agencies and surveillance." Distrust of the CIA/NSA/FBI is basically non-existent among Dems now. https://t.co/YOtn0XWP0X — PolitiTweet.org

(Just to fix the vague time-line in my first tweet: the illegal warrantless spying on Americans was authorized in secret by Bush/Cheney in 2002. Only the Gang of 8 - including Pelosi - were briefed, and they approved. It was exposed in 2005 by NYT, which won a Pulitzer for it.) https://t.co/8UZJHk2J44 — PolitiTweet.org
