Patriot,
Washington, D.C. is quiet.
Too quiet.
Granted, Congress will soon return from Easter break, but with less than two weeks before Section 702 of FISA expires, the apparent lack of urgency by the Spy State and their pawns in Congress has me worried.
That means they’re working hard behind the scenes to make sure they don’t lose their ability to spy on you . . . read all your text messages, tap into your emails, listen to your phone calls and voicemails, get access to your social media.
It’s all done in the name of “security.”
Never mind the Constitution which guarantees our rights on this matter.
“The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”
But those in the Spy State will tell you, “if you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear.”
That’s not how the Constitution works.
I’m perhaps more appalled by the ignorance of the Constitution by sitting members of Congress.
Rep. Ray LaHood (R-IL) said, “If the president of the United States wants a clean reauthorization with no warrant, tell me your reasons why you would vote against him?”
It’s the Constitution, stupid!
So the race is on . . . and I need to be sure you’re in this race with Ron Paul and Campaign for Liberty.
On April 20, Section 702 – the Spy State’s “crown jewel” expires unless Congress takes action.
Speaker Mike Johnson and House leadership want to FORCE through a long-term renewal of Section 702 with little debate and no meaningful warrant protections for Americans.
This is how it works in the Swamp when they think they can get away with it.
They move behind the scenes.
They bury the details.
They hope you won’t notice until it’s too late.
But we are paying attention -- and we’re not backing down.
If you believe the government should have to get a warrant before spying on Americans, we need you with us.
Your donation today will help us go after those representatives who have demanded a warrant requirement in the past but may change their tunes now that the Trump administration wants renewal with no reforms.
We’re ready to bang on the doors of these congressmen to let them know a “clean renewal” is not acceptable.
Our initial list of targets is Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH), Chip Roy (R-TX), Tim Burchett (R-TN), Judiciary Ranking Member Jamie Raskin (D-MD), Ralph Norman (R-SC), Tom McClintock (R-CA), Andy Biggs (R-AZ), Freedom Caucus Chair Andy Harris (R-MD), Harriet Hageman (R-WY), and Zoe Lofgren (D-MD).
That’s quite a few representatives we’ll be targeting, but it has to be done.
Stand with us. Fight back. And let Congress know: no warrants — no deal.

P.S. We are less than two weeks away from U.S. House leadership ramming through FISA Section 702 renewal with a long-term extension . . .
. . . You and I MUST increase our efforts and demand “No warrant requirement, no reauthorization!”
This is a defining fight.
