US Anti-Terror Laws Expire

[Foxholer]

An excellent result! But achieved for all the wrong reasons!

The phillybuster that achieved this has Presidential aspirations! And intends to do similar with intended replacement.

Just love the way the US names laws! Those that allow wholesale snooping are called 'Patriot Act' and 'Freedom Act'!

No chance of another filibuster on the Freedom Act as senate passed a vote yesterday to limit the debate on that so that will now pass.
