Trump Chooses “Mad Dog” Mattis for Pentagon Chief
Canada Free Press ^ | 12/02/16 | Matthew Vadum

Leftists foam at the mouth and gnash their teeth

Obama foe and retired Marine Corps Gen. James “Mad Dog” Mattis will be the nation’s new Secretary of Defense if President-elect Donald Trump gets his way.

“I will not tell you that one of our great, great generals—don’t let it outside of this room,” an impish Trump told a Cincinnati audience last night. “We are going to appoint ‘Mad Dog’ Mattis as our secretary of defense ... but we are not announcing it until Monday, so don’t tell anyone. He’s great.”

It is time to repeal the First Amendment protections afforded the press.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.[

Well its time that Press starts to refer to all the Bloggers out there. And not just all the billionaire’s networks and papers. Since they allowed radio and TV to become press, certainly bloggers are press as well.

It’s in the Constitution. You can’t repeal it.

Well, technically, you can...but only with an amendment.

Not easy to get: Congressional resolution, then 3/4 of the states to ratify it.

The problem is not with “freedom of the press.” The problem is 1) 90% of major / main steam media are owned by 6 corporations, 2) the airwaves are a public good and they are required as a condition of their license to present a balance of different views.

As to item #1, a little research will show that the ownership of these media giants is owned by a particular ethic group, which in case you can’t guess, isn’t white and isn’t Christian. If these media giants WERE owned by Christians, we would endless hear what is known as a “Brandeis brief” analysis, to wit: that their 100% ownership is ipso facto proof of cartel practices and illegal discrimination. But since the shoe is on the other foot, so to speak, the silence is deafening.

As to item #2, in the past two years we have witnessed the news media go all-in as a propaganda organ of the Democrats (Commies) that would make Stalin proud. Even during Vietnam, Cronkite never got that bold. But they broke “cover” during these past two years. The result is that a Trump administration should revoke their broadcast licenses. Further the media cartel should be nationalized (without compensation to the stockholders) and shares distributed to evenly to every citizen. This is essentially what the Soviets did with their major industries when the USSR collapsed.

I did not mean me, as in I was going to do it all by myself.

The Constitution provides that an amendment may be proposed either by the Congress with a two-thirds majority vote in both the House of Representatives and the Senate or by a constitutional convention called for by two-thirds of the State legislatures.
