Congress to Blame if Terrorists Win as Section 702 Expires and America Is Left Defenseless

Washington is at it again—willing to gamble with your safety just to score cheap political points. Congress is sitting on its hands, letting America’s best defense against foreign threats—Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act—run out of time. If these lawmakers don’t wake up by Monday, this vital tool for catching terrorists and enemy agents vanishes overnight. That would mean it’s open season for foreign threats, all because Democrats and weak-kneed Republicans are more focused on leftist optics than national security.

Section 702 isn’t some shadowy, evil spy trick. It’s what keeps American families safe. This law lets our intelligence agencies track foreign threats before they attack. Without it, our agents would be flying blind while our enemies laugh. But liberal politicians prefer hand-wringing about so-called privacy—a favorite excuse to tie law enforcement in knots—than actually doing their jobs to defend the homeland.

Here’s the truth: The radical left and their globalist buddies have never liked the idea of strong American security. They’d rather protect the feelings of foreign spies than your children. Whether it’s defending terrorists at Guantanamo Bay or blocking ICE from deporting criminals, liberals always seem to side with the other guy. Now, by stalling on Section 702, they’re ready to roll out the red carpet for America’s enemies.

Of course, the Biden administration is nowhere to be found. This White House preaches about “equity” and “inclusion” while gasoline, crime, and threats from China skyrocket. National security is just another item for their virtue-signaling checklist, never a priority. The American public is left hoping Congress will rediscover some backbone before it’s too late.

Let’s get real. If Congress lets Section 702 expire, every politician responsible should hang their head in shame. Do liberals really want to make it easier for terrorists and foreign agents to operate on American soil? Or is that just what happens when you care more about global approval than protecting your own country? Time for Congress to decide: are they on America’s side, or on the side of our enemies?
