"Knowing what we do about Donald's approach to policy issues, it seems unlikely that the American president is aware of what is going on." LOL, like you have a clue and sit in the presidential briefings.
"But somehow he has been persuaded to revive a civil liberties oversight body that was torn apart for criticizing a controversial spying program that requires reauthorization by Congress at the end of the year."... Oh yeah the one killed under Obama, but you cant admit that, and you just cant fathom that the President cares about civil liberties because of your blind partisanship. LOL, go take a knee.
