TFG is a Sicko Psychopath Example #5412316465

Yeah, a terrific idea. Tell the press that they need to give up their sources in government, which they use to (accurately, in this case) report on government, because it wasn't helpful to the Republican Party, despite having done nothing illegal or they will be imprisoned. Are you defending this?

 

No idea who TFG is.

 

Agreed national security are no the topic of discussion.

A leak about a pending USSC decision is not a crime and we all know going to prison is not in the cards. Looks bad for the court and the damage is done. As is we are waiting on the results of the investigation.

 

Funny how you take my comments about what was said and construe it as defending who said it. I merely pointed out what was meant by the inappropriate comments to say the least.

 

There is freedom of the press and a reporters right to protect their source. Some reporters have even gone to jail doing exactly that.

I'm not defending anything I merely pointed out what was meant by the inappropriate comment. No matter what was said there will be no criminal charge levied or anyone being imprisoned for that matter. Which is how it should be. If this were to actually happen I'd be highly concerned and voicing my objection to it.

 

From the nazi party to Russia recently, authoritarian governments always target the free press. But interesting how so many blindly follow these politicians.

 

Fair enough. It was vastly inappropriate and inconsistent with the values of a free country.

 

You can actually watch this clown for over 30 seconds?

 

I had to look it up. Was just happy the F is for former.
In more ways than one.

 

Ugh. They are nuts.

 

so Chris Wallace is a “present day pharaoh who we won’t soon see again” because the Angel of Death is coming for him? and trump followers believe in this. Below a rally for Dear Leader, giving the qanon salute.

 

Good for AG Garland on protecting journalists within his power at AG

Under the new rules, the Justice Department will no longer use compulsory legal process — including subpoenas, search warrants and certain court orders — to obtain information or records relating to newsgathering activities by members of the media. Whereas previously, federal law enforcement could seek this information if it was deemed important to a leak investigation, now these measures will be reserved for extremely narrow circumstances, typically involving immediate danger to citizens’ lives and safety.

The Post and other responsible news organizations appreciate the tension between the government’s constitutional obligations to respect the First Amendment and to provide for the common defense. We recognize that balancing these imperatives can be difficult. This is why the journalists we entrust with covering our national security agencies are among our most experienced and discreet. And it’s why news organizations take great care to ensure that our reporting does not recklessly put lives at risk. The new regulations attend to this balance: They do not inhibit the government’s ability to act on immediate threats or give reporters license to break the law or special treatment outside the scope of their constitutionally protected work.
