Tulsi is a CFR member which has always made me doubt her. She is really good at optics though, really really good at optics.

Isn't the Patriot Act expired?

Technically it's "expired", but really they're just postponing the extension of it (The House of Reps has been postponing a vote on it since March). In my opinion this is a power play to ensure extension after President Trump threatened to veto the bill (a lack of extension during a national crisis provides plausible deniability to continue operating under its protections but a straight up veto is confirmation that it's kaput.) Come March I'm sure the extension will get pushed through.
