Dear Patriot,

You knew the fight would turn WHITE HOT again
. . . and it just did!

Mitch McConnell's allegiance to the Deep
State is astonishing.

As I wrote you earlier today, Senate Majority
Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) introduced amendments to Nancy
Pelosi's House-passed SHAM FISA reform bill to make it an even
greater threat to your privacy and liberties.

Senator McConnell's
amendments are a return to the worst provisions of the so-called
Patriot Act.

The fact is, Pelosi's SHAM FISA Reform bill
H.R. 6172 keeps the Section 215 mandate that communications
companies act as the NSA's filing cabinet and requires they jump
whenever the NSA tells them.

So the "reform" is already meaningless as
currently written and should be opposed.

But the Majority Leader is actually trying to
make it worse -- if adopted, McConnell's amendments would
explicitly permit the Deep State to warrantlessly collect records
on Americans' web browsing and search histories!

1) Please call your Senators IMMEDIATELY by
dialing 202-224-3121 . . . or if you're reading this on your
phone, CLICK HERE TO LAUNCH YOUR MOBILE DEVICE'S CALLING FEATURE
and act even faster!

Tell them you've had enough of the government
abuse and snooping on law-abiding Americans made possible by the
so-called "USA Freedom Act" and FISA under the guise of "national
security" -- Tell them to vote against the Deep State's SHAM FISA
reform (H.R. 6172)!

And DEMAND they vote against McConnell's sham
amendments that give the Deep State your Internet history anytime
they want!

2) After you call, please dig deep and chip
in with as generous a contribution as you can afford to help
Campaign for Liberty mobilize more patriots to bring the Deep
State's unconstitutional domestic spying programs to a crashing
halt!

As we predicted, Senator McConnell is
relying on the same old same old excuse of "keeping us safe" the
Big Government statists have always used to justify their
blatantly unconstitutional spying programs on law-abiding
Americans.

And just as we predicted, McConnell is now
insisting coronavirus and Speaker Pelosi's refusal to bring the
House back into session as the reason he must crush real debate
and reform and RAM the crown jewel of Deep State domestic spying
back into law full force.

"This is urgent because the House refused to
take up the Senate's short-term extension of important
counterterrorism and counterintelligence authorities before they
left town.

"We must act quickly to clean up their mess
and renew these authorities which our government needs to fight
terrorists and check the agents of China and Russia."

-- Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell

Like always, the statists' excuse is
"security."

But regardless of what buzzword they use to
defend their assaults on our freedoms, their enemy is ALWAYS the
same.

It's our privacy. Our liberty. Our
"stupidity" for not trusting them enough.

Just like the PATRIOT Act, the so-called "USA
Freedom Act" traded real liberty for illusionary security . . .
this latest sham is more of the same.

The fact is, the statists crafted this whole
scheme in secret with Attorney General William Barr (the Deep
State's Chief Enforcer) to forcibly collect, store, and search
every American's emails, phone records, text messages, Internet
searches, instant messages, online purchases, and Facebook posts
whenever the Deep State wants!

The Deep State has proven over and over
they'll abuse their domestic spying powers.

Now Deep State lackeys McConnell, Barr,
Pelosi, and the rest of the Deep State's thugs are hoping to pull
the wool over Americans' eyes with sham reform or some
window-dressing amendment that keeps their spying powers running
full blast.

Of course, Barr is the very same Attorney
General whose Department of Justice goons asked Congress at the
start of this whole coronavirus mess for "emergency" powers to
indefinitely detain law-abiding citizens without so much as a
judge signing off.

So you don't have to think very long to see
how terrible this could get. . .

Consider for a second the actions of Big
Government authoritarians in BOTH parties in the course of this
whole coronavirus mess.

And of course, they've added coronavirus to
their list of excuses to spy on you and me.

In fact, Scott Gottlieb, a former FDA
commissioner in the Trump administration, recently raised that
narrative. Echoing Dr. Anthony Fauci and Bill Gates on massive
government "track and trace" requirements, he stated "the massive
surveillance system that we need to detect infection quickly
we're hopefully going to have in place."

Now, Trump administration Economic Advisor
Kevin Hasset is saying "There Is No Downside" to implementing a
national surveillance testing and an aggressive contact tracing
system.

Meanwhile, tech giants like Facebook, Google,
Twitter, and others openly admitted turning over phone GPS
location data to government officials under the guise of the
coronavirus.

But the truth is, they have been tied at the
hip to the Deep State for nearly two decades now, handing the NSA
gobs of private information on law-abiding Americans anytime it's
asked for!

And it will get much worse if this SHAM FISA
reform is rammed through as currently written.

And even worse if Senator McConnell's
amendments are adopted that would explicitly permit the Deep
State to warrantlessly collect records on Americans' web browsing
and search histories!

So, I'm counting on your IMMEDIATE action
today.

First, please call your Senators IMMEDIATELY
by dialing 202-224-3121 . . . or if you're reading this on your
phone, CLICK HERE TO LAUNCH YOUR MOBILE DEVICE'S CALLING FEATURE
and act even faster!

Tell them you've had enough of the government
abuse and snooping on law-abiding Americans made possible by the
so-called "USA Freedom Act" and FISA under the guise of "national
security." Tell them to vote against the Deep State's SHAM FISA
reform (H.R. 6172).

And DEMAND they vote against McConnell's sham
amendments that give the Deep State your Internet history anytime
they want!

Then, please dig deep and chip in with as
generous a contribution as you can afford to help Campaign for
Liberty mobilize more patriots to bring the Deep State's
unconstitutional domestic spying programs to a crashing halt!

Won't you please consider making your most
generous contribution of $50 today?

I know that's a lot to ask, but your Campaign
for Liberty has been neck-deep in halting America's further slide
toward total authoritarianism and we've been stretched thin
during the coronavirus panic.

Of course, if $50 is too much, then
please consider a generous contribution of $25 or at least
$10.

These funds will supercharge our grassroots
muscle to make it 100% clear to your elected legislators that the
FBI, NSA, and their Deep State allies have run rough-shod over
Americans' civil liberties long enough.

Please act at once.

For Liberty,

Ron Paul
Chairman
