US Congress Overrules SCOTUS
CONGRESS PASSES BILL WHICH GRANTS “UNLIMITED ACCESS TO COMMUNICATIONS OF EVERY AMERICAN”
Amash labels legislation "most egregious I've encountered"
According to Congressman Justin Amash, Congress just passed a bill which grants the government and law enforcement “unlimited access to the communications of every American”.
When the Michigan lawmaker discovered that the Intelligence Authorization Act for FY 2015 had been amended with a provision that authorizes “the acquisition, retention, and dissemination” of all communications data from U.S. citizens, he desperately attempted to organize a roll call vote on the bill.
However, the legislation was passed yesterday 325-100 via a voice vote, a green light for what Amash describes as “one of the most egregious sections of law I’ve encountered during my time as a representative”.
The bill allows the private communications of Americans to be scooped up without a court order and then transferred to law enforcement for criminal investigations.
The legislation effectively codifies and legalizes mass warrantless NSA surveillance on the American people, with barely a whimper of debate.
Read the full text of Congressman Amash’s letter below, which was sent out before the bill was passed.
*********************
Dear Colleague:
The intelligence reauthorization bill, which the House will vote on today, contains a troubling new provision that for the first time statutorily authorizes spying on U.S. citizens without legal process.
Last night, the Senate passed an amended version of the intelligence reauthorization bill with a new Sec. 309—one the House never has considered. Sec. 309 authorizes “the acquisition, retention, and dissemination” of nonpublic communications, including those to and from U.S. persons. The section contemplates that those private communications of Americans, obtained without a court order, may be transferred to domestic law enforcement for criminal investigations.
To be clear, Sec. 309 provides the first statutory authority for the acquisition, retention, and dissemination of U.S. persons’ private communications obtained without legal process such as a court order or a subpoena. The administration currently may conduct such surveillance under a claim of executive authority, such as E.O. 12333. However, Congress never has approved of using executive authority in that way to capture and use Americans’ private telephone records, electronic communications, or cloud data.
Supporters of Sec. 309 claim that the provision actually reins in the executive branch’s power to retain Americans’ private communications. It is true that Sec. 309 includes exceedingly weak limits on the executive’s retention of Americans’ communications. With many exceptions, the provision requires the executive to dispose of Americans’ communications within five years of acquiring them—although, as HPSCI admits, the executive branch already follows procedures along these lines.
In exchange for the data retention requirements that the executive already follows, Sec. 309 provides a novel statutory basis for the executive branch’s capture and use of Americans’ private communications. The Senate inserted the provision into the intelligence reauthorization bill late last night. That is no way for Congress to address the sensitive, private information of our constituents—especially when we are asked to expand our government’s surveillance powers.
I urge you to join me in voting “no” on H.R. 4681, the intelligence reauthorization bill, when it comes before the House today.

Wow. I was really worried about this... until I saw it was from Infowars.

I'm very sorry for you. Infowars seems to cover news stories that only later on are carried by mainstream news shows but in a different view quite often.

Infowars overall seems credible. There is no news site that is always 100 correct due to so many deceptions and lies in governmental systems.

Source be damned, is it hard to believe the same degenerates that have been voting like this since 9/11 would do something like this? In a world where every nation is on that same slippery slope?

All of them should be tried for treason and crimes against humanity.

The more I hear from you - the more you remind me of Ambrocious.

The more I am reminded about Ambrocious - the more I recollect Alex Jones.

Whenever I think of Alex Jones - you and your defensive posts, cross my mind. yXZVmpE.gif

I don't know about the creditability of the source but I do know which has been talked about all over the news is that the N$A has been and will from now on be collecting data on all communications....they don't need congress approval...its already happening. lol This is really no new news...been public on world news for a while now. Would not shock me if other countries are doing the same and their ppl don't even know it...

Keep in mind who came up with the WWW and what it was used for. ;)

Note: If you want privacy, don't go online and stay off the grid (no smart phone).
