Clearly Trump is spying illegally on Americans. Lilely through your cell phone. @chrislhayes.bsky.social @raskin.house.gov

Mr. Can't Keep a Secret over here... wow

If it's a secret, then you're not supposed to send it

The Constitution has other requirements that you fail to take seriously.

We should be concerned but we don’t know what about. We know Musk stole all of our data and we know that the DOGE 20 somethings probably sold it on the dark net so that we can all have our identities stolen. And we are being constantly surveyed. So we are in Stalin’s Russia? What is it?

so tell us about it

Nice work. Then please find out why I am "randomly" selected by TSA every time I opt out of the face scan at PDX.

Senator, you are unconditionally protected by the Speech and Debate Clause if you read this interpretation into the Congressional record. Trump may try to come after you anyways, but the failed indictment of Senators Kelly and Slotkin shows they have not corrupted the grand jury system yet.

Stop telling us to be concerned. That’s why we elect representatives. We know what’s going on. Do something about it!

Read the letter into the record

@papst-ny.bsky.social

If a single Dem votes to renew this, they shouldn't just be primaried, they need to EJECTED FROM THE PARTY That includes Schumer - who will likely vote YAY

The CONSTITUTION requires it be blocked as a direct violation of our 4th amendment rights. If you democrats & republicans were AMERICANS you'd know this. Obviously you're not - you're democrats & republicans. Instead of listening to your mega donor masters, LISTEN TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!

Yes, you also voted to give Netanyandu more. So there's that.

Senator, I don't care if the information they're collecting is classified. Their "secret interpretation" of the law isn't. Tell us what that is.

nice cool cool sounds normal

Thank you-- proud to call you my Senator!

This regime and their obsession with secrets... How does a "secret interpretation of a law" even make sense? How do you enforce a law if no one, presumably even the courts, even know what it is? I have a better idea: Be open and honest with the people you purportedly serve, often called Americans.

We would be more concerned about stuff if we actually knew what is going on, especially if it pertains to how they may be infringing on our privacy.

Oh bloody hell I just don’t know if I can take one more horrible thing.

This will probably be the single most important part of our legislative process that you won’t hear about from most republicans or democrats because both republican & democrat want our government to be able to spy on you 24/7 the rest of your life. Everything u ever do will be under surveillance.

Tell Massie to come over here I miss reading his posts

This is all so messed up and scary

Thank you, Senator Wyden.

Uh 'secret interpretation of surveillance law' is so dystopian

Ya 😊

This is hilarious! They bitch and complain about their office phone logs being requested by Jack Smith and they even go as far as to make a law that allows them to sue, but the peasants are fine to surveil. They all need to go!

Thank you Senator. I’m glad to be your constituent.

You are going to have to get a bit more specific.

In case anyone needs to get some background on this "insightful" and cryptic post. A little less bragging and a lot more informing from politicians isn't much to ask. www.intel.gov/foreign-inte...

do not let them funnel this data into palantir

It’s like this admin watched every movie ever made about dystopian authoritarianism as a how-to manual.

Sounds like something that should be read into the record.

Good work finding it, but we are talking about people who literally secret circulated the anti-4th amendment as training material for ICE, so just keep that in mind that no one here is following rules.

Massie is the only Republican that I can say he puts the Constitution 1st. He does what's REQUIRED. NOW, THAT'S FAR AND FEW BETWEEN.

Absolutely Trump is already using everything he can to control us! You give him this FISA and he will turn us into a dictatorship asap!

Thank you, from a constituent and a gal who like democratic order.

My Senator!!! Grateful, sir.

Thank you so much for your work on this.

For the moment everything Trump should be voted down. America needs to "close the shop" and lock the country down until Trump goes away and takes his merry band of criminal idiots with him.

Did you know congresspeople will live 14 years longer than you, eat food you do not, have doctors you can only dream of, have real educations... Did you know it costs us $900,000 to $2,000,000 per year to support a congressperson's way of life? No other peer democracy does this.

…. Then make it public. Speech and debate clause.

a secret interpretation of ANY law should be unconstitutional, it's certainly disturbing and anti democratic with a shadow government tinge ala the old Soviet KGB

What ever the classified topic is - it’s seems to be secret policing of Americans citizens. Yes Massie vote No! Thank you Senator Wyden

The government's embrace of Palantir is years in the makingCivilian federal agency interest in the company’s technology has grown, but current and former officials have some worries, including cost.fedscoop.com

Remember as Republicans way back when we bitched and moaned about the "Patriot Act" being a huge over-reach on our personal liberty? Good times, good times...

Sure wish you gave a shit about Palestinians as much as you pretend to give a shit about americans.

Black bagging citizens to ensure oligarch puppet masters endless profiteering and unaccountability isn't secret anymore.

A. You should share it with everyone right here, or you are part of the problem. B. This is about the GD billionaires AGAIN. Our civil liberties are on the line and big money is controlling our elected officials.

It’s too bad the majority party, save for Massie and usually Paul, hate the Constitution.

Massie again!!! He’s become a “sheep in wolves fur” for the Dems. 👏👏👏

Senator, I've voted for you at each opportunity I've been given. I am curious which politicians you are training and talking to both locally and nationally to take up this mantle once you retire. We can't lose your expertise and tenacity on this issue!

Thank you, Senator Wyden and Representative Massie.

That sounds really ominous. We do NOT need more surveillance - we need to roll back what was implemented post 9/11. It is not keeping the people safer; it violates our privacy and makes us less free.

The government should know my "secret interpretation" of "go fuck yourself." 🖕🏼

FISA was wrong from the start. I was shocked that our new President, Obama, signed the bill to continue the law.

If we need to be concerned, tell us what it is.

I think the votes are now 217-214 in the House. One more Repub stalls it.

I have not been shy about tagging you on this platform bc I believe that the Schumer plan from last spring's budget/CR fight to allow Trump to hurt America so that Dems might have something to run on in 2026 is immoral, and I expected you to fight. But this? This is good. Thank you.

Same

As a career national security professional it pains me to say that I don’t trust the current leaders in FBI/NSA/CIA to do the right thing with the broad surveillance authorities and I’m OK with shutting them down…we will lose an edge but the cost to our citizens’ rights is too high with this govt…

with all due respect, what constitution?

Thomas Massie is the only Republican I can think of that is worth saving.

generalstrikeus.com

Just award him a FISA Peace Prize. He'll forget all about the rest of it. Yw

Thank you Senator Wyden.

Call me ignorant but I didn't know that we have laws with "secret interpretations" in this republic. I knew we had these weird secretive courts where only the government shows up to plead its case. But how can a law be in our name and we don't know its interpretation?

Well done, senator. Keep fighting the good fight.

Thank you for doing the right thing.

I have never regretted voting for you.

I think Thomas Massey is probably the first Republican I’ve ever felt that was an honest good human being. These 2 cared about society and cared about our country. Rand Paul has showed up too lately and impressive. Makes you wanna work harder to cross over and care about each other again💙🇺🇸

You got to tell the PEOPLE, clearly, what we should be concerned about.

You have blood on your hands Wyden!

Nonzero probability that Fetterman is going to vote in favour of it regardless because he thinks bipartisanship trumps the Constitution.

Most of us guessed there was some "secret interpretation" the minute Trump loudly demanded that Republicans had to get on board to reauthorize this. When it's important to Trump (such as the SAVE Act), it means he's seizing illegal control. I have no doubt that is part of the issue here.

Given the way it gets handled by the current administration, does classified mean anything anymore?

Republicans will vote however Netanyahu TELLS them to vote. It is evident that the senate must be the first corrupted, before it can attempt an establishment of tyranny. - Alexander Hamilton

so will you be telling us what is in those documents or not? because you can and you should. what’s the point of grandstanding like this if you aren’t gonna tell us what we actually need to be concerned about??

“a secret interpretation of surveillance law”, or as described below “a secret government interpretation of FISA”, both of which are terrifying.

Not sure if I should thank you for this info. Would love to know what we the every American is supposed to do about this! Are your colleagues aware, is there a plan? Is there going to be an overthrow?

Refine and require a warrant. This is as bad as Noem/Lewandowski/Miller ICE in violating the Constitution. Some of us pay attention this. Don't reauthorize unless there is a warrant for access. This is all going to come back to hurt republicans if they don't change it to require a warrant.

It should go without saying that the least possible unchecked power this administration has, the better.

I’m gonna take a wild stab here. FISA 702 was written to allow the FBI to tap into private communications between foreigners and US citizens. So our Bondi/Blanche DOJ has done a secret re-interpretation? THIS DOJ? Trump’s DOJ?? “Foreigners” now include undocumented immigrants. ICE is wiretapping.

Agreed!!

that's a big deal. what's the secret interpretation and how does it affect us?

Thomas Massie is right. If there are secret interpretations or abuses, you shouldn’t just rubber-stamp the law again. You should force changes before renewing it. Under the Fourth Amendment the government shouldn’t conduct unreasonable surveillance

They have a "secret" interpretation of a law? Are we going to need guns to fight them? If the average citizen can't understand a law, then it can't be enforced, and anyone who tries should suffer a revolt.

Thanks, Senator. Those of us with experience knew something was way off when Patel dismantled FBI's FISA compliance regime. 🙇

Why did you vote to send more weapons to Israel?

This is why Snowden is living Russia while those with the most power to live with the consequences will hide that the government is abusing them.

Yeah. FISA needs serious beefing up. We are already way over exposed. Congress slept on data privacy while EU did the right thing by its citizens. Danish citizens own copyright to their likeness and voice, so that deepfakes can be sued for copyright infringement.

How can the interpretation of law be considered classified? Makes no fucking sense. Secret just means a way to violate our rights without accountability.

Senator. Call me in my SCIF

Post it on here senator. You can

🤬is there anything this administration does that will not infringe on our constitutional rights and liberties? WTAF ! They pass laws to make it legal to spy on citizens without any involvement of the courts, without a warrant, without even a cause.

Oooh I’ll bet it has strong words, maybe the strongest words

If “every American should be concerned about”, why was it sent it as a “classified letter” and not “open letter”? Trying to defeat yourself at your game? Brilliant, eh?

Yeah we got the memo:

It's imperative that those asking for and making these deliberate anti-Constitutional moves end up in Gitmo.

You need to repeal all those bush era surveillance programs including the Patriot act. Eliminate the DNI

This is how we can tell it’s election season All you useless Epstein-class account executives start engaging in the theater of empty promises to the people you need votes from.

Saving it for your memoirs or are you gonna tell us what it actually is?

I would say ANY re-authorization. Clean, or buried in another bill.

why not actually tell us what was in the letter? this is like when the bush admin was running wild during the gwot. i have no idea whether i should hoard heirloom seeds or buy duct tape. yeah, i'm concerned. we all are.

Senator Wyden, keep raising a stink about anything illegal that you find. We the people appreciate it!

The secret law problem returns, here about FISA 702. My three-branch comprehensive study: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

Except Republicans don't give a rat's ass about the Constitution.

Sure, wait around hoping for someone else to tell the American people- God forbid you stick your neck out; you're a young guy just starting out in your career of public service. Just play it safe and cover your ass.

Reminds me of the `3 hops` rule. I used Snowdon as an example - anyone within 3 hops from Snowdon could be surveilled. Snowdon did a Reddit IAMA and hundreds of thousands US citizens interacted with him, thus putting themselves *1-hop* from the most surveilled man of 2014.

Thank you. I am concerned about this non constitutional invasion of privacy

wtf?!?!?!?!?!?!??

Spare me the cryptic bullshit- tell us what it is, or go away. This is like making us all scared of TikTok even as the US Govt was outright buying more personal information than TikTok ever collected. Just, stop.

TRUMP IS RIGHT, THERE IS ELECTION INTERFERENCE...BY THE GOP. Hungary’s incoming PM said that Viktor Orbán used Hungarian Government funds to help finance CPAC, the flagship GOP event for GOP candidates, members of Congress, and conservative media in AMERICA. +Guiding the creation of Project 2025

If laws are secret how can one be prosecuted?

If I had to wager a guess, the Administration wants to listen in on everything we're doing without prior authorization or probable cause. Probably so they can disappear folks into their concentration camps who organize against them.

Where all the Snowden simps who lost their minds over the NSA and “Five Eyes” surveillance? And where are all the ‘Don’t Tread On Me’ dipshits? Oh, right, they’re all MAGA now and apparently it’s okay if Peter Thiel Palantir and the government are surveilling every citizen in America.

yeah they doing this voting stuff in twilight hours

How does the government have secret interpretations of laws? How is it you didn't reveal this information if its so clearly unconstitutional?

Start with dismantling Palantir
