This hidden provision is so crooked and selfish, it doesn't even apply to US Representatives. Just US Senators.
Look at this new outrage. To open govt, we're retroactively letting 8 Senators sue for $500K each over having had their J6 phone toll records looked at. https://t.co/mliJ4GzFVH

@rparloff Who are they suing? They can’t sue the government. They can’t sue the gov worker who gave the order, they were just doing their job. They can’t’ sue the DOJ, or whatever division. They can’t sue the judge who approved the warrant. Bunch of ding-dongs who waste time and money.

@rparloff It's so clearly a payoff for those who aided the violent attempted coup. Hope people understand these Senators will be handed 1/2 a million taxpayer dollars - all as inflation/cost & unemployment rise - as payoff for trying to destroy democracy.

@rparloff Why are we paying politicians to break the law? $500k is criminal behavior promoting criminal justice ⚖️

@rparloff @clearing_fog It’s retribution, what he ran on, and what the entirety of the Republican Party stands for today, along with looting the American taxpayers.

@rparloff Mister Trump is spreading the grift around. Why are we paying taxes to like Ted Cruz’s pockets?

@rparloff That's because Senators have the right to challenge their data being taken with or without a warrant. Its a law. You should know that. That law was violated when Boasberg issued his gag order to the phone companies. Things like this make you very partisan and disingenuous.

@rparloff How is it crooked? Because Dems can’t find a way to parlay it into payoffs for their family members’ NGOs?

@rparloff Totally agree. Disgusting. Should be $5M each that they're entitled to. No question.

@rparloff That’s because the law Judge Boasberg is accused of violating or ignoring only applied to U.S. Senators.
