One does not just approve 99% of warrant submissions without being hustled a fair amount of the time. That was the scariest thing I read in that article. Sounds like you could put shit on a stick and it would get approved, although

If nobody is punished for this. I guess we can look forward to a lot more of it.
The same people will vote against reforms of FISA, just like they did in 2014. Well, ISIS has been defeated so I wonder if Moscow Mitch’s views have changed.
Mitch was one of the 4 Republicans to vote for the reforms.
Lindsey and his cohort screaming about it, they had no problem.
I guess I should have looked at the voting record and bill. I saw this from the article and assumed he was a Nay for reforms.
Earlier Tuesday, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., took a stand against the bill. Citing the U.S. fight against extremist terrorist group ISIS, he said, "At a minimum, we shouldn't be doing anything to make the situation worse. Yet, that's just what this bill would do."
Another "No" vote came from Sen. Rand Paul, who said that he voted against the bill because "it currently extends key provisions of the Patriot Act until 2017."
