Many are calling it a “constitutional crisis“. House Oversight Committee Chairman Darrell Issa calls it potential “treason“.

High-level NSA whistleblower Bill Binney, Edward Snowden, a very high-level former CIA officer, a former FBI agent [20] and many others are all slamming Congress for the hypocrisy

Even Jon Stewart has lambasted them:
