Senate Blocks House Bill on NSA Surveillance
Editor’s Note: Our government politics is a poisonous, two-headed snake. The Democrats stand up against Obama on the TPP and the Republicans ram it through anyway. Rand Paul steps up as circus leader with the Greatest Filibuster Show on Earth yet the Republican-led Senate blocks a House bill that would end the NSA’s bulk collection of domestic phone records.
It doesn’t matter what side we vote for Congress is not voting in our best interests.

The Republican-led Senate blocked a House-passed bill and several short-term extensions of the USA Patriot Act early Saturday.
The big stumbling block was a House-passed measure to end the National Security Agency’s bulk collection of domestic phone records. Instead, the records would remain with telephone companies subject to a case-by-case review.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell favored retaining the program, but fellow Kentuckian and Republican presidential contender Rand Paul blocked any extension no matter how brief past the midnight May 31 expiration.
