Nope, Neither is allowed to operated inside the USA. or Monitor US citizens inside the USA.
more subtle than I thought. It does collect international emails and phonecalls made by americans.
"A lot of people are very angry over the treatment of the goat. Lions can eat zebras in Africa but MAGoat can't eat your cabbages? UNFAIR!"
Wasn't that the crux of the Edward Snowden revelations? That the NSA were actually spying internally?
Illegally. No one said they dont I said illegally.
Yeah, the program was called Prism. Illegal, but you know every country capable of doing it is doing it.
Sooooo… hey I know a place
PRISM was snooping on private e-mail because it was being mirrored on foreign servers eg. Your Gmail.
There isn’t any privacy or spying issue with looking at Trumps public social media messages or fundraiser emails that go out to the public.
The NSA can monitor my Boards posts all day ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Judge rules in favors of CREW and will release improperly redacted portions of the Mueller Report!
I never mentioned Trump's social media of scamraising e-mails. I'm not keen on the idea of mass surveillance of practically everyone. It's something that could easily be misused by an administration that places loyalists at the head of every facet of the state and weaponises them.
Its how it came up in the thread iirc. Sorry for any confusion.
Mass surveillance of public internet I don’t see issue with. Getting into private emails is why Snowden broke laws incl. the Espionage Act to bombastically leak PRISM etc. to the press.
GOP is trying to pretend like Trump doesn’t exist for a while
hmm I don't think they can. You have to be outside the USA. They have no jurisdiction over the Internet. Obviously sending death threats or alike internally in the USA they can go after you. But for example if a US citizen threatened the life of a Foreign powers Government there is no recourse. Why people can say that they like about the small Russian chap. Inside the USA they have to get a warrant as my understanding. And that would be Questioned on why the FBI are not dealing with the Issue. CIA and NSA are supposed to be external. I know if your outside the USA they can monitor your for what 7-10 days before having to Get a warrant. No one is suggesting they don't do it but it would be Illegal.
That was internal to the USA. He did not have the Clearance. It's what I find odd that if someone breaks USA security from an external country they want to put them on trial and countries agree. Hacking into a US system is Illegal in the USA. Not outside.
So they can go after death threats but can’t see the death threats because they aren’t allowed to? 🤔
He's gonna hire Ingraham, isn't he....
Well the GOP congressional leadership have experience of this from January, 2021 when they lost two Georgia senate seats because trump was in full big lie about the election mode. It’s hard to be shocked that your base stayed at home when constantly told that the voting system is rigged.
Dr Oz using his same primary website and recycling it for his campaign has yielded interesting results in his old tweets that Fetterman is having great craic with:
I don’t think Trumps endorsement has helped: Fetterman now leads Oz by over 18 points.
I see a Republican running for NY-27 said Merrick Garland should be impeached and executed, and not one member of the Republican leadership has condemed his remarks.
And yet some of the fools here will look at you in shock if you dare to say Republicans are domestic terrorists.
DeSantis also made a churchillian speech against wokeness that could be viewed as a call to kill woke persons in the state of Florida. “We will fight woke at school we will fight woke at work bla bla bla florida is where woke comes to die!”
One in Florida stated that under his plan Floridians should be able to shoot FBI and irs agents without repercussions.

Notice that the American right wing doesn't really define what 'woke' is. That's important because by not defining it, it becomes whatever you want it to be when you want it to be. Ron Desantis says to his supporters that he's going to kill 'woke' and they don't think he's going to only ban litter trays for school children who want to live as cats or some other scare mongering ultra-liberal thing, but that he's going to get rid of everything to the left, politically, of a Desantis supporter, which is how they would think of 'woke'. So, that could be education on gay rights, tolerance of other religions or how minorities in the USA haven't always been treated well, to name a few.
The way they and some people online use it, basically covers everyone who doesn't automatically hate someone because they are different or isn't suffering from persecution complex.
Woke just like cancel culture is just a buzz phrase that means next to nothing but also anything that suits the argument at a given time. It’s a tactic to appeal to the stupid, something for idiots to rally behind because the world is changing and they aren’t comfortable with it.
It’s weird, “woke” used to mean something positive. To be “woke” meant to be tolerant and aware of the struggles of others.
How is that a bad thing?
Because those struggles (for the most part) belong to minorities and the Conservative right only like if you're a white christian man
Yeah, as far as I understand it, it's just a peculiar word for treating others with dignity and respect. I can't fathom how you can run a political campaign/stunt based on banning people being treated with dignity and respect. It boggles the mind.
'murica...
Fcuk yeah!
It can sorta mean that but it’s used as a catch all these days, it’s just meaningless really. Using labels is an easy way to whip up noise without being specific.
It's just the new "PC gone mad" an utterly meaningless insult, used by those with peanut sized brains
