Cruz was the sole objecting senator, who claimed without evidence that Wyden’s bill could disrupt law enforcement, “such as knowing where sexual predators are living.”

1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

No, not those sexual predators. Not the rich ones who fight to oppress the LGBTQ+ and dark-skinned people. The sexual predators who are struggling to make ends meet. Those sexual predators. The ones that no one will miss.

Those are the ones the GOP wants to go after. Not the ones in their own ranks.

That's the difference between the two parties. One will kick out perverts. The other embraces them, as long as their money's good.

Pedophile defender, Ted Cruz, doesn't want you or your children to have privacy. I wonder why...

I read the article, but I’m missing how ONE dissenting senator was able to derail the whole thing?

[-] AliSaket@mander.xyz 16 points 3 days ago

It's because how it came about and how the process works (which they make up for themselves btw) it needed unanimous consent.

So basically, it was a dog and pony show to begin with?

[-] fuzzzerd@programming.dev 5 points 3 days ago

Same. I'm more confused after reading.

~~Ted Cruz blocks bill that would extend privacy protections to all Americans~~

Real Headline: The American government is corrupt and compromised, top to bottom, side to side. No one gets a pass. Not from the current admin or any previous admin. You do not go into US politics on a mere government salary and exit politics a multi millionaire.
