@emptywheel@robertcaruso@Krhawkins5 so then@RandPaul capitalized on the crisis and@McConnellPress was just stupid and/or slow? -
@weems@RandPaul only capitalized by distinguishing himself fr POTUS rivals, small $ fundraising@robertcaruso@Krhawkins5@McConnellPress -
@emptywheel@robertcaruso@Krhawkins5 maybe I dont understand procedure but it was powerful to see an objection every time -
@weems Oh, absolutely. McConell's bid to destroy the dragnet to vastly expand it didn't work (yet)@robertcaruso@Krhawkins5 -
@emptywheel@robertcaruso@Krhawkins5 its so weird that the law that purports to close dragnet opens it further. -
@weems USAF just shifts things around. What McConnell wants is vast vast expansion of dragnet.@robertcaruso@Krhawkins5 -
@emptywheel@robertcaruso@Krhawkins5 is it a philosophical love of spying or is there some financial benefit? -
@weems Yes to both.@robertcaruso@Krhawkins5
