Trump's proposed data-sharing deal with Palantir would be an appalling attack on our privacy.
It goes hand-in-hand with his attacks on habeas corpus.
Liberals and conservatives should agree on this: we don't want mass surveillance or erosions of our civil liberties.

When an admin starts to defy the judiciary,
Congress should shut all work down.
All of it.
No more action on ANYTHING until the rule of law is restored.
