War Powers and Abuse

• I know as do you:

  • That war powers are vital to national survival
  • That these powers may be reduced as peace comes

• But these have been and are being abused:

  • Long history of political abuse
  • President says the war is indefinite and secret
  • No specific target - find new ones and hit as they come
  • No specific enemies - generic 'terrorists'
    • And the definition changes as those in power wield it

• We are losing the war on cybercrime

• We are losing our freedoms along the way
