it was when john bolton was on every single news program cheerleading the Iran war and saying there's no downside that was the coup de grace for me

Turns out lawlessness is not a winning strategy. See you at Nuremberg 2.0

How Vulnerable Are Computers to an 80-Year-Old Spy Technique? Congress Wants Answers A pair of US lawmakers are calling for an investigation into how easily spies can steal information based on devices’ electromagnetic and acoustic leaks—a spying trick the NSA once codenamed TEMPEST.

Senator Ron Wyden and Rep. Shontel Brown are calling for an investigation into the vulnerability of modern computers to what the NSA calls TEMPEST: spy techniques that pick up devices' accidental electromagnetic/radio/acoustic emissions to learn their secrets. www.wired.com/story/how-vu...

Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) called the strike on a girls’ school in Minab a “horror.” The attack reportedly killed 165 people, mostly children. He rejected Secretary Rubio’s argument that the U.S. had to follow Israel into war to defend American interests. “I think it’s not a close call. We make foreign policy in the interests of the American people,” the Senator said. @JulianAndreone | @RonWyden

Sen. Wyden Warns of Mass Surveillance Amid Pentagon's Fight With Anthropic "Creating AI profiles of Americans based on that data represents a chilling expansion of mass surveillance," said Wyden.

"This data broker industry is largely unregulated at the federal level, and the Department of Defense is entering into contracts to purchase such data." https://gizmodo.com/sen-wyden-warns-of-mass-surveillance-amid-pentagons-fight-with-anthropic-2000728971

If you want to understand how the government and private companies are working together to spy on americans, read joseph.

On Tuesday, Wyden, Rep. Adriano Espaillat, and a group of 70 other lawmakers sent a letter to the DHS OIG urging it to once again investigate DHS’s purchase of location data. “Public reports indicate that ICE has resumed its location data purchases, even though DHS has yet to adopt all of the recommendations from your prior review,” the letter, shared with 404 Media by Wyden’s office, reads. “Your 2023 report noted that there was no DHS-wide policy governing component use of commercial location data. DHS created a commercial data working group in 2022, but as of April 2023, the DHS commercial data working group had yet to issue a policy. Your office recently confirmed that this recommendation remains open.” The letter says that ICE is “stonewalling” Wyden’s efforts to investigate the Webloc purchase. Wyden’s office requested a briefing on the purchase after 404 Media first revealed it, with that briefing scheduled for February 10. “One day before that briefing was to take place, ICE cancelled it with no explanation and without any offer to reschedule,” the letter reads.

Today a group of ~70 lawmakers are urging the oversight body of DHS to investigate ICE's location data purchase we recently revealed. DHS previously ICE, CBP, Secret Service all used the data illegally. Letter says ICE is stonewalling congressional oversight www.404media.co/cbp-tapped-i...

After Supreme Court rebuke, Oregon Sen. Ron Wyden and other Democrats call for government to refund billions in Trump tariff money The bill is unlikely to become law, but it reveals how Democrats are starting to apply public pressure on a Trump administration that has shown little interest in trying to return tariff revenues after the Supreme Court announced its 6-3 ruling on Friday.

A bill from Senators Ron Wyden, Ed Markey, and Jeanne Shaheen would order Customs and Border Protection to issue refunds within 180 days and pay interest. The bill prioritizes small businesses.

After Supreme Court rebuke, Democrats call for government to refund billions in Trump tariff money

“Trump’s illegal tax scheme has already done lasting damage to American families, small businesses and manufacturers who have been hammered by wave after wave of new Trump tariffs," Sen. Ron Wyden of Oregon said.

so glad republicans are willing to sacrifice themselves for their leader and defend these deeply unpopular tariffs

We're all going to have to keep paying higher prices because the president is throwing a tantrum

If only someone knew that these tariffs were definitely illegal beforehand

this is psychopath behavior

Sen. Wyden is trying to alert the public to potential CIA abuses.

The classification system and the CIA’s knee-jerk secrecy will make uncovering these activities difficult, but that shouldn’t stop us from trying.
