Sen. Wyden (D-OR) pledges to block Senate vote on NSA director nomination

JTN:

Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., vowed earlier this week to block the vote on the NSA director nominee until answers are given about whether or not the spy unit is purchasing Americans’ data. 

“The American people have a right to know whether the NSA is conducting warrantless domestic surveillance of Americans in a manner that circumvents the Fourth Amendment to the Constitution,” Wyden said, according to Politico.

Lt. Gen. Timothy Haugh is the nominee and if appointed, he would lead both the National Security Agency and U.S. Cyber Command.

Haugh’s nomination has been held up for several months by Sen. Tommy Tuberville’s, R-Ala., hold on all military nominations. more
