Let’s run a little scenario: a reporter’s post is doctored or posted completely outside of their control. Their boss calls them in:
“Did you post this?”
“No”
“Yeap, treason!”
Please don’t confuse enthusiasm with critical thinking.
You haven’t watched the news lately, have you? Trump simply says you’re a traitor and you’ll be “investigated” as in someone will write a doc saying why you should be deported (you’re a terrorist! Evidence not required) and you’ll be on a flight out.
This current US government really doesn’t give a shit about facts
What I’m trying to convey, in the face of your obnoxious sarcasm, is that while the administration would of course interfere in what should be an objective investigation, politicians and reporters have a wealth of powerful advocates in their support networks. The administration can only control the message/investigation of the SS. They cannot control the message or investigations of the victim’s support network, however hard they may try.
Dear baby Jesus, dude, go watch some “news” from US sources? Everyone just went with the program and there is very little pushback from the press. Oh yeah, there is pushback but it’s a fraction of what it could be, should be.
The point is still that most people, even most journalists or politicians, don’t have those protections. Fact is, a lot of top politicians and journalists don’t have those protections which is literally why we have politicians getting arrested for protesting against the El Salvador prisons and then going after comey.
You’re quite enthusiastic there with the idea that anyone would actually investigate any of that instead of just saying “yeap, treason!”

Ah yes, because this administration is SO good about providing people with due process.

Amazingly enough, there are more people in the world than the rich, famous, or powerful. Most people do not have that “wealth of powerful advocates.”
Those people also deserve the rights you’re so callously ignoring.

And leave personal attacks out of it.
