Patriot,
The Deep State is scared.
And in turn, they are trying to scare you and other patriots.
"Losing Section 702 would be a calamity for American security,"
Rep. Ken Buck (R-CO) wrote last week.
The National Security Agency boasts "Section 702 Saves Lives,
Protects the Nation and Allies."
But the gross abuse by our government violates the Constitution
and must be stopped!
Now, the Deep State is worried their "crown jewel" that allows
them to spy on Americans might be going away.
Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Security Act (FISA)
allows the government to target any non-U.S. person abroad who is
"reasonably likely" to communicate "foreign intelligence
information."
But the government's Section 702 targets need not have any
connection to terrorism investigations or criminal activity.
Targets may be academics, journalists, or human rights
workers-anyone likely to communicate with foreigners or about
"foreign matters" . . . even you!
And the FBI has been found to have done millions of illegal
searches on innocent Americans. When caught red handed, they say
they will police themselves to clean things up. So now they are
down to only 250,000 illegal searches.
When will this end?
I have some bad news.
Media sources are now reporting House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA)
told members of two key House committees to "stop butting heads"
on Section 702 renewal and "quickly meld their competing bills."
As we have been warning, there are two competing - and completely
opposite - bills in the House regarding the government's endless
spying on the American people without a warrant.
It's a clear case of good vs. bad:
- The Protect Liberty and End Warrantless Surveillance Act (H.R.
6570), which would require the government to get a warrant before
they spy on you, a major improvement to the unconstitutional
Surveillance State today, which was passed by the House Judiciary
Committee;
versus
- The inappropriately-named FISA Reform and Reauthorization Act
(H.R. 6611), which would actually expand the government's
unconstitutional spy powers, which was passed by the House
Intelligence Committee.
Patriot, there can be no "compromise" between two ideologically
opposite forces. We either restore our constitutional rights, or
we lose even more.
One side wins, the other loses. The statists understand that -
does Speaker Mike Johnson?
It's critical you call Speaker Mike Johnson today at (202)
225-4000 and insist he advance and support ONLY H.R. 6570 and
restore our constitutional Fourth Amendment protections!
Here's a simple message:
This is [your name] from [your city and state]. I'm calling to
insist the Speaker advance and support ONLY H.R. 6570, the
Protect Liberty and End Warrantless Surveillance Act, and REJECT
H.R. 6611, which would renew and even expand unconstitutional
surveillance under Section 702 of FISA.
This is a black-and-white issue. Section 702 has been abused
millions of times and continues to be abused by the FBI. The
Surveillance State has proven it cannot follow the Constitution.
There can be no compromise between the Judiciary Committee's bill
to restore our rights and the Intelligence Committee's bill to
further degrade them.
This issue has always been in the Judiciary Committee's
jurisdiction. The Speaker should support the bill the Judiciary
Committee passed.
Contact Speaker Johnson's office at (202) 225-4000.

STOP THE SURVEILLANCE STATE Directive. Your petitions will be
delivered to your representative, and you and I need to let them
know we won't accept them trampling the Constitution anymore!
Last Fall, the Speaker attempted a "Queen of the Hill" scheme,
where both bills would have been brought to the floor for a cage
match.
That's not leadership, and he was rightly called out on it . . .
and he was forced to abandon the scheme.
You and I can force Johnson to abandon this scheme, too - but
only if we take action NOW!
According to our Capitol sources, members of the House
Intelligence Committee are falsely claiming H.R. 6570 will
greatly curtail the intelligence community from stopping
legitimate threats.
This is just another example of the dishonest scare tactics the
Surveillance State always employs to justify its unconstitutional
schemes.
You and I know from Johnson's "Queen of the Hill" scheme that he
is motivated by what is popular.
So, call him RIGHT NOW at (202) 225-4000 and let him know freedom
is popular! Insist he advance and support ONLY H.R. 6570 and
restore our constitutional Fourth Amendment protections!
