    Justin Amash Retweeted Rich "The People's Pundit" Baris

    Too bad Twitter won’t let me reply with more than 25 tweets to this disingenuous take. Nobody in Congress fought harder against the surveillance state—and government’s use of private companies as agents—than I did. The frauds are those who let their biases blind them to reality.https://twitter.com/Peoples_Pundit/status/1357707015288721409 …

    Justin Amash added,

    And when banks are violating the civil rights of their customers, our enlisted are subjected to inquisition, citizens are being spied on and framed, etc., notice libertarian frauds like @justinamash are silent. Remind me why there’s even a Libertarian Party in this country.

        I sounded the alarm about the dangerous arrangement between financial institutions and the government—and about the many privacy and rights violations via laws and regulations. Meanwhile, Trump did nothing to stop abusive Treasury regulations and signed multiple abuses into law.

        Big vote in the House this week to extend the powers of the #PatriotAct. There's still time to stop this unconstitutional assault on the rights of all Americans. Both parties hope you'll be distracted by other news and not notice their stealth effort to pass this horrendous bill. https://twitter.com/libertycaucus/status/1044625089877225472 …

        #HR6729 is described as involving voluntary data sharing, but it also includes language from a section of the #PatriotAct that the government has used to warrantlessly demand customer information from thousands of companies.

        #HR6729 also invites due process violations. The bill allows nonprofits to go to banks and accuse people of serious crimes, while being shielded from liability.

        Even if the accused is innocent and never charged with a crime, their reputation may be destroyed, and banks may choose to close their accounts, effectively blocking them from the financial system.

        #HR6729 can even protect disclosures that were not made in good faith. Someone could share a false accusation and still be immune.

        Section 702 of FISA allows the government to conduct warrantless searches on Americans and maintain massive troves of our data—but it is about to expire. Congress now has 15 days to decide whether to protect the #4thAmendment or let the government continue to eviscerate it.
