The passage of the Patriot Act in October 2001 is by now an all-too-familiar story. The American people, already suffering from the trauma of 9/11, were pushed into outright panic by the anthrax attacks, a series of anthrax-laced mailings that killed five, injured 17 and shut down congress for the first time in modern history. The Act itself was introduced on a Tuesday and signed into law on Friday, before anyone had read let alone understood the sweeping changes it would introduce to American law.

One of those changes were amendments to a little-known and little-used FBI instrument called National Security Letters.

Find out more about how the US government keeps its opposition silent with these constitution-destroying investigative tools on this week's edition of The Eyeopener.

This is what happens when you allow dual citizens from Israel to serve in congress.

Dual nationals should not be allowed in our government.

J Edgar Hoover loved to keep records on people. It was like a hobby. He kept his office for a long time. Nothing wrong with the FBI.

In 93 they wrapped up the WTC bombing in a hurry. Of course seeing that it was their informant that built the bomb "he wanted to build a fake bomb , but they insisted a real one be built", financed by them "they spent 1.3 million" & court records show that they knew that a bomb would be set off & they did nothing

They wanted something like the Patriot Act passed

Don't worry. Obama re-signed the Patriot act (every year ) as well as the NDAA 2012. You're safe now'. GO BACK TO SLEEP!

@puapake He lives Japan. They don't insulate their homes in Japan and rarely have central heating. Also, it's quite cold this time of year.
