They talked about the new constraints it imposes on the Justice Department and the FBI, what it doesn't do, the warrant requirement that isn't there, some other provisions that have generated controversy, and the bill's prospects in the Senate this week.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.
