as posted by the channelRyan Grim ( ), Washington Bureau Chief of The Intercept and TYT contributor, talks to Intercept reporter Alex Emmons about how the Senate found 60 votes to move forward with a bill to give Donald Trump and Jeff Sessions expanded surveillance authority, including the ability for Sessions and the FBI to have access to the NSA’s data for any reason they see fit.
Only 41 Republicans voted for cloture, meaning the bill needed 19 Democrats to get over the line. Jeff Flake voted yes, knowing that he had already written a speech to deliver on the Senate floor comparing Trump to Stalin.
