Anyone watching the confirmation hearings for Mr. Pompeo ? Democrats have some valid points

Sanders on right now !

Pompeo wrote the op-ed for the The Wall Street Journal, in January 2016, calling on congress to “pass a law re-establishing collection of all metadata, and combining it with publicly available financial and lifestyle information into a comprehensive, searchable database.”

He added that “legal and bureaucratic impediments to surveillance should be removed.”

The piece was published following high-profile terrorist attacks in Paris and San Bernardino.

In a questionnaire from the intelligence committee dated January 3, Pompeo was asked to explain his current position on that op-ed. In response, he promoted the usefulness of metadata, describing it as “a significant tool for the Intelligence Community that is no longer available.”

If you're not watching it spare me the one stars.
