Trump,McConnell,Mulvaney,Bannon and the rest of the gang come up with all of these other crazy schemes

Since the Repugs in Congress voted so callously to violate the internet privacy of the American public, can states (like Ca with Dem legislaturees/Governors) pass a law to stop this?

(2,574 posts)Can't imagine Ca and NY State Legislatures also aren't going to try to shut this down. And it'll go to SCOTUS.
The DNC have to spend every cent lying around and make an immediate ad against every Repub who sold their voters' privacy and, double hit, Gorsuch...the Corporations Uber Alles Judge, as SCOTUS who will make sure it sticks.
Like Colbert said the other night, not one single American voted for anyone to sell their internet privacy.

And it was all "republicans" the same ones like I said in the beginning that TOOT the horn of BS about protecting individual rights--------------------right.
A couple of big states need to file, and this is another reason to keep this dick**** Gorsuch off the court. It really despicable that someone would say yes to a sexual predator to just jump a head of the line to put his Hobby Lobby, Transcom Trucking mentality BS on everyone, someone that thinks stealing a seat is better than earning the privilege-------------amazing
