    Edward Snowden Retweeted Elizabeth Goitein

    This is one of the most respected surveillance policy experts in America. The context is that Democrats are quietly joining with Republicans to grant expanded warrantless surveillance powers to Donald Trump. Right now.https://twitter.com/LizaGoitein/status/951277290465431552 …

    Edward Snowden added,

    Elizabeth Goitein @LizaGoitein
    Members of Congress: history will not judge kindly the lawmakers who tried to give away Americans' freedoms. DO THE RIGHT THING. Vote yes on the USA RIGHTS Amendment, and if it doesn't pass, vote NO on the FISA Amendments Reauthorization Act.

        because there is no division of the parties near the top, just different pockets lined with cash when the political pendulum swings one way or the other every 2 or 4 years

        What a Russia-y way to frame this. Why not say "Trump and Republicans are gonna spy on you with the help of only a minority of Democrats"? Or "The institutional resistance to gov't spying on you is almost all from Dems"? Nevermind... we know why. You write for Putin.

        It doesn't look like leaks did enough to discourage them Must use encryption and poke Big Brother's eyes.

        If my experiences are anything to go by, one of the biggest things the leaks did is make the agencies much more aggressive in defending their secrets.

        I mean, current @CIA head believes @Snowden should get the death penalty. What does that say about how they're likely to be handling whistleblowers or leaks? 🙄
