Do you want to dig up a T-Rex? -
Why didn't anyone tell me excavation kits are a thing?
quote [ Former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper says that he knew of no FISA-approved wiretap activity against the Trump campaign. ]

In truth these particular bills are mostly too extreme to be really 'terrifying'. They have no real chance of passing, it's ideological red meat for the snarling base. It's what they sneak into omnibus spending bills and budgets- specific program defunding etc that's the really dangerous stuff.
But the more relevant point here is all of Trump's unhinged fuming about wiretaps etc is indeed deliberate distraction.

But the more relevant point here is all of Trump's unhinged fuming about wiretaps etc is indeed deliberate distraction- from his own Russia scandal and increasingly unpopular policy moves.
For example- people might want to keep their eyes on this-
Pentagon plan to seize Raqqa calls for significant increase in U.S. participation.
The start of Trump's Vietnam? Stay tuned.
