What, did they keep selecting the AP?

A reporter from ABC, I believe, has been deciding this. It looks like now that Trump will be kicking out anybody he doesn't like there...so no more free press is on the docket. Again, fascist.

The preas has become a fascist Democrat organization. Trump just fights the enemy.

North Korea tactics. Trump's buddy

More like Russia when Putin returned to power. NK has never had anything resembling a press.
This is about Leavitt being allowed to stand in front of the press and lie with impunity. This is about Trump being allowed to lie with impunity. This is about the press being compliant, or they will be punished.

Yeah, he got that from Putin and Un.

Because it is. The Project 2025 Handbook is just a rehash of fascist takeovers.

Got tired of using the Hitler label so switching to fascism? How many press conferences did we have the last 4 years? I guess you forgot that previous guy was given a list of reporters to call on, along with pictures, etc, and the questions were all scripted. What cute term would you call that?
