A federal judge ruled Monday that the National Security Agency program which collects information on nearly all telephone calls made to, from or within the United States is likely to be unconstitutional.
U.S. District Court Judge Richard Leon found that the program appears to violate the Fourth Amendment prohibition on unreasonable searches and seizures. He also said the Justice Department had failed to demonstrate that collecting the so-called metadata had helped to head off terrorist attacks
This is the stuff I have been arguing that Obama should be impeached over. Instead, Republicans have focused on birther conspiracy theories and a fake Benghazi story. While the GOP is making themselves irrelevant with their silliness, the Obama administration has been wiping it's ass with the Constitution of the United States of America. Hopefully, this decision is the first step in dismantling a program that the old Soviet Union would have had a wet dream over. A little help on this, Republicans? Please?
