Trump seeks to "paralyze" the "Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board" (PCLOB). A key element of the EU-US data transfer deal ("TADPF") that allows EU-US data flows.
What a fucking shit show. It is astounding how impotent our legislature has been for so long. This whole thing could easily be avoided with actual fucking laws, but instead they’ve continued to hand more and more power over go the executive/presidency for years and years.

Oh, 100%. That’s what I mean, our Congress has become completely useless due to the “all or nothing” stance the GOP and to some extent the DNC have taken over the last couple of decades.
