The law is that “Although the WH is not required to open its doors to the news media, once it establishes press facilities for credentialed journalists, it cannot deny access based on the content of a journalist’s coverage.” That's exactly what Trump is doing. joycevance.substack.com/p/its-a-nice...

Putting aside the 1st Amendment implications…it’s not like Convicted Felon Donald Trump tells the truth when the press is at the White House anyway.

As an American political historian, I can confirm that this Congress has been "almost unmatched in history" in several categories -- sad abdication of its war powers, craven surrender of the power of the purse, weird refusal to conduct meaningful oversight, and an utter failure to pass actual laws.
Mike Johnson claims that the current Congress is "probably in the top three or four of all time" and is "almost unmatched in history" 🙃

Wow -- RNC video: "On June 14th, 1946, God looked down on his planned paradise and said, 'I need a caretaker,' so God gave us Trump."

The word "socialism" is constantly thrown out at any attempt at social progress that challenges the rich and powerful.
We hear it used today — but this fear-mongering tactic goes back much further than most of us realize.
