Progressivism isn't just about supporting government—it isn't now, nor has it ever been. We don't cheer on massive government subsidies for oil companies, Big Pharma, or for-profit colleges. Editors' note: When an opinion piece published on InTheseTimes.com on July 3, 2013, received heavy criticism, we invited journalist and privacy advocate Zaid Jilani to write a rebuttal. Some of the most prominent defenders of the National Security Agency's spy programs are the people you might expect: right-wing authoritarians.

There was who praised the agency's “lawful program to protect Americans” and demanded the prosecution of whistleblower Edward Snowden. There was former Bush press secretary, who said “the program is a good one” and that it has “kept us safe.” And the list wouldn't be complete with, who praised the spying program and even brought forth the spectre of terrorists smuggling in a nuclear device to rebut critics. None of this reaction is particularly surprising from those like Cheney who have been at the forefront of advancing the brutish, violent side of government for years. What is more disconcerting is that fact that self-avowed progressives have risen to the defense of the NSA's violations of American freedom. Louis Nayman—a longtime union organizer who I'm sure has been involved in difficult and important struggles as a progressive activist—makes a major misstep by suggesting that progressives should be defending the NSA's conduct. His article for In These Times, begins with a long series of unsubstantiated claims meant to defend the NSA recently disclosed domestic spy programs.
For example, Nayman repeatedly asserts that the NSA's phone and Internet surveillance programs are beyond any doubt legal. But that the powers the government is claiming to have are incredibly broad, and quite likely beyond the scope of powers authorized under the Patriot Act. This is also the —and he should know, he wrote it.
Section 215 of the Patriot Act allows the government to seek “tangible things” after proving relevance to a foreign intelligrnce investigation. Seizing the millions of phone records under the logic that a handful may have relevance is stretching the law. Additionally, the constitutionality of mass surveillance itself has yet to be tested, although the American Civil Liberties Union is through the courts.
Former Vice President Al Gore has said Nayman also writes, “According to NSA officials, the surveillance in question has prevented at least 50 planned terror attacks against Americans, including bombings of the New York City subway system and the New York Stock Exchange.” The important phrase here is “according to NSA officials.” It is entirely possible that PRISM and the NSA's other surveillance programs have stopped terrorist attacks aimed at Americans. But it's also entirely possible that they haven't—we have no idea, and uncritically taking the word of government officials would be a foolish choice. Take, for example, the case of Najibullah Zazi, a man who allegedly plotted to bomb New York City subways, whom NSA head General Keith Alexander, Sen.
Diane Feinstein (D-Calif.) and others claimed was NSA mass surveillance programs. As, investigators looking into Zazi's case already had probable cause to suspect that he was involved in plotting terrorism, meaning that obtaining a warrant to surveil him would've been easy. In fact, British authorities by seizing the physical computers of another terrorist suspect—meaning that they got wind of him through good old-fashioned police work, not mass surveillance. Meanwhile, there's reason to believe the word of NSA officials may not be good. We can't forget Director of National Intelligence James Clapper's infamous testimony before the Senate in March: WYDEN: “Does the NSA collect any type of data at all on millions or hundreds of millions of Americans?” JAMES CLAPPER: “No sir.” WYDEN: “It does not?” CLAPPER: “Not wittingly.
There are cases where they could inadvertently perhaps collect, but not wittingly.” Clapper that his response that day was the “most truthful, or least untruthful” response he could give. After this spree of misleading statements from top government officials, it would be folly to simply trust those in power. Recall that most of this mass surveillance stems from the opinions of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC)—a court whose, denying us the ability to even debate whether we as Americans are comfortable with mass government surveillance we don't even know is happening. Following Nayman's substantive defense of the NSA—which, while flawed, is something reasonable people can debate—his argument veers into much more pernicious territory.

The USA laws formulated to seemingly make the Lying and Spying of the Obama Administration legal, is like using old beyond shelf life Scotch Tape to attach Australia to Florida and then claim Australia as a USA possession.
Meanwhile the USA installs puppets in the Australian Government, and builds USA Army Bases in Australia to spy on China, and prepare for a war against China! It is time for the people of the USA to wake up, and take their government back from the bought and paid for Politicians owned by the elite 1% who control USA Imperialism!

I'm really dissapointed by ITT. AFter dropping my subscription a few years back due to its knee-jerk marxism, I was considering subscribing after reading more nuanced articles, like one criticizing Cuba. Now, however, looks like ITT supports knee-jerk Big Brother-is-watching-you statism. Their disclaimer that the opinion is solely that of the author is plainly a typical legal cop-out, otherwise, hot to explain its prominence? What's next, an apologia for Henry Kissinger like the one recently printed by the Atlantic magazine? Sorry I won't be subscribing now or never.

But it is important for those on the left to understand the true nature of the problem. It is more than those on the right are willing to examine or concede. This is a covert state/corporate operation.
Government and giant corporations are colluding for their own benefit. Corporations reap enormous profits as government contractors in the surveillance game. Corporations have been engaged in the practices of surveillance on their own purely to maximize their own profits. Their surveillance of U.S. Citizens is politely called 'market profiling.' The information about all of us is gathered, stored, used, reused, sold, resold and updated. We have no control over who uses it, what they use it for, how often they use it, when they use it or to whom they provide it.
We don't even know what it says about us. But for those on the right, this kind of activity is perfectly acceptable. It is merely the 'free market' at work.
It is certainly clear that if leaders like Dick Cheney had sufficient power in government, corporations could be readily persuaded to hand over data of any kind about anyone of us. The lessons of Richard Nixon and Watergate remind us of how easy it is for paranoid repressive leaders can create enemies lists for the purpose of persecution, harassment and intimidation.

It has never left. Today 100% of the Democrat Party subscribes to the progressive movement and somewhere around half of the GOP. This is why ALL so called bi-partisan legislation is PROGRESSIVE. Part-D, No child left behind or the Patriot Act part 1 were NOT Conservative legislation.
That stink we all smell is progressives in BOTH parties. Not sure why they are called Rino's. Just call em what they are, PROGRESIVES. Posted by Dusty Thompson on 2013-07-12 12:12:04. It is agreed that since the US government is not 'an incredibly positive force.transparent, accountable and empowering', we should oppose it.
It's also agreed that 'Not only can we advocate for rolling back the national security state and implementing positive government programs like Medicare for All and a national living wage, but if we are to win over the American public, it may very well be necessary to do both'. And in order to accomplish all that foreign policies must change, freeing-up funds. 'Might-makes-right' policies have alienated thinking earthlings everywhere. In fact US policies are primary causes of terrorism today and everyone on this planet seems to know that except the US voter and establishment spokespersons.
