Didn't they lecture us that democracy dies in darkness? I guess they were just announcing their game plan. 😂

The coup will go more smoothly if we just put Freedom of the Press aside
for a little while.

Intelligent, honest, fact finding journalists only.
Don Lemon and other CNN staff join in suit by Joe & Mika to stop this impossibly high bar from discriminating against them.
Mika: Everybody doesn’t have a big brain, you guys.

...penning reporters was done during the Clinton impeachment in 1999.
End of argument. Period. Tell the ENEMEDIA to go pound sand.

Dont allow anyone who write an article on President Trump that turned out to be false.

But it’s supposed to be a media circus.
Why else call “witnesses”?

There were several reporters on video, taking pictures of documents and notes during the house hearings. I’d ban them all, except, I want Americans to see the democrats explode on national TV during this fiasco.

The group's chair, Sarah Wire, argued against the proposed restrictions in a Twitter thread. So they can push their Dem master's plan on the weak Repub Senators (Collins, Mitt, etc...)?

Keeps Democrats from playing to their captive media during the trial.
It will shorten it enormously. This isnt is going to be the Kavanaugh hearings on steroids.
Sucks to be the House managers.

CNN doesn’t need to be there. They will just make it up anyway.

Maybe it can be CSPAN only and let the other channels relay it.
To: Vaduz
They’ve already written half of their stories, just leaving a few spaces for a couple facts, to make it sound real.

IF it’s like the House circus Dems want easy access to Fake News to give gaslighting interviews during the proceedings. Makes a lot of sense to block that, actually.
