    Your so right – they have now fully proven how psychotic and delusional they are. I mean, one really has to question their sanity here.

    What is the us thinking?
    Like they would give the EU all of the US citizens bank information (300 milion people). Like the they wont.

    They think they can get away with everything and what makes me more angry is that many prime ministers want this to happen. Like, are you serious, by doing this you only make them more powerfull. Give themselfs a bigger to lick on!

    European Parliament is sick, this should be a clear no to us dominance and bud licking practices. Are they stupid? This is just a way for the NSA to do profiling and target singe European citizens. I dont want my data in the hand of a possible future enemy. USA is going down and taking us with them. Why should I trust a war sick country? We have Europol (police) to handle terrorist matters. Corrupt globalist governess will drive us in to poverty.
