HOLY SHIT! Donald Trump let the Patriot Act expire in June and not 1 person reported this. Just you wait for Joe to renew this come Janurary.
Wiki: "After President Donald Trump threatened to veto the bill, the House of Representatives issued an indefinite postponement of the vote to pass the Senate version of the bill; as of June 2020, the Patriot Act remains expired."

We just going to forget this very important part of that wikipedia article just a few sentences before your quote:
> The Trump administration delivered a letter to Congress in August 2019 urging them to make permanent three surveillance provisions of the Patriot Act.
@freemo @SirSpencer you do make a good point.
@freemo @ned yeah in that case the "Trump administration letter" was a letter from swamp rat Dan Coates right before he was forced to resign.
Those citations can teach you a lot.
