Senator On NSA: ‘Big Brother Is Truly Watching You’

[Jesus Malverde]

While President Obama considers his task force’s recommendations for reforming the National Security Agency intelligence program, Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) claimed that NSA surveillance has gone too far.

On CNN’s State of the Union, Manchin told CNN host Candy Crowley that Orwellian warnings have become a reality. “Now we found out it’s true, big brother is truly watching you,” he said on Sunday. Instead, Manchin said there is a “fine balance” of NSA reforms that protect privacy while protecting national security. “So I’m open to listen to all the recommendations that has come out to see if we can improve upon that,” he said.
