It's also lovely how the SCOTUS and the Dem majority in both houses have done very little to quell creeping authoritarianism in the country. It really doesn't matter who wins the election and who is appointed, does it?
I understand the frustration with the Dems, but to their credit, they did stop the current bill and allowed the law to revert to the old FISA policy, with court oversight. That wouldn't have happened under a Republican rubber stamp Congress.
