Good Article....
NSA is tracking everything, illegals dont come under the same 4th amendment laws as citizens plus they are also getting credit cards, use phones... The idea we need to pass this bill (Rubio) in order to see who is here...deceptive. (paraphrase)
Recall the Bush administration once requested info from Google on what people were most-commonly searching for on some general topic (kiddie porn?).
Not “Who” was searching, just “What” was being searched for.
Google then indignantly announced “We will never betray the trust of our users in such a shameful manner”.
Now, apparently, they have no problem divulging far more info, when the administration is to their liking.
The government did catch them but only after a phone call from a citizen tipped them off.
In fact, the government knew all about the Boston bomb terrorist and were giving these foreign terrorist hundreds of thousands in tax paid prizes, gifts, school coupons, food stamps, etc., etc.
Once again, Americans get gang banged by their own controlling corrupt government.
The government did catch them but only after a phone call from a citizen tipped them off.
In fact the government was probably monitoring the GD citizen who called and tipped them off...
It's insane...The corrupt government takes hundreds of billions for all this crap to spy on Americans, as they gave the foreign Boston Bomb terrorist food stamps, prizes and gifts...
Like our borders...The government takes hundreds of billions in tax dollars for border security, and we have tens of millions of illegals running through our streets??? The joke is on us!
The American people have been played for stooopid ignorant fools...
Now is the time for a national history lesson on the ideas and principles underlying our Declaration of Independence and Constitution. Nothing else will enable future generations to be able to enjoy the "Blessings of liberty" intended by the limitations on their government structured into the 1787 Constitution.
We seem to have forgotten that the Constitution is "the People's" limitation on coercive power lodged in government, or "the chains" (Jefferson) by which they "bind down" their government. That Constitution is not the government's limitation on "the People."
If we miss this opportunity for using the technology available to reproduce and spread the Founders' ideas and principles throughout the land, then that opportunity may be lost, along with the light of liberty which those ideas brought to the entire world.
"Posterity! you will never know how much it cost the present generation to preserve your freedom! I hope you will make a good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in Heaven that I ever took half the pains to preserve it." - John Adams, Letter to Abigail Adams, 1777
What an awesome responsibility we have to Adams and the other Framers of America's Constitution "make good use" of the opportunity we have now to "preserve" freedom for future generations!
If we "do not," then history will record our failure to use that technology as a betrayal of the trust of all the brave men and women who have been willing to sacrifice everything for freedom's cause--from 1776 to now.
"On every question of construction, let us carry ourselves back to the time when the Constitution was adopted, recollect the spirit manifested in the debates, and instead of trying what meaning may be squeezed out of the text, or invented against it, conform to the probable one in which it was passed." - Thomas Jefferson, letter to William Johnson, June 12, 1823, The Complete Jefferson, p. 322.
The answer to the initial questions is, of course, that all the snooping is exactly for the benefit of Moslems and Jihad and for the communist/Moslem government of the USA.
bingo. it’s wrong, it’s corrupt, but worst of all, like all un-constitutional provisions, it doesn’t work.
We did not have a clue on the Tsarnevs.
Ask them what those 20 AP reporters ordered for lunch every day. I’m sure they can tell you that.
The ‘media’ keep repeating that this guy, this whistleblower, has exposed secrets so dire as to endanger national security. So far —and I’ve been following this thing very closely for several days— I haven’t seen anything which endangers, but there sure is a lot which exposes the depths to which the current regime will go to silence anyone exposing their Constitution-ignoring criminality. It is well beyond time to bring this regime down ... but then that won’t even touch the brokers who chose this post turtle little bastard boy to rule over Americans/America.
It is long past time we dump all of these companies flat on their arses. I am done with all things google from this day on.
