Main part is being able to throw out our constitutional rights under the guise of terrorism. From my understanding it is written pretty vaguely so who knows how they will "interpret" it.
I do know they can...
They can hold us indefinitely.
They can detain us when we are outside the US.
Due process is something they can laugh at while holding you as long as they want.
Apparently it is suppose to include more domestic military powers.
I find it ironic that this came out after the American assassination of Anwar al-Awlaki in Yemeni. I would imagine this frees up any notion that it may not be legal to assassinate Americans without any trial.
Basically bypassing due process of law since "terrorism" is something different then criminal and should be treated differently.
Just another way to control us and cement the police state we know as the United States.
