it's again, this sort of weird simulacrum journalism that covers the superficial aspects of certain things, but has no interest in any sort of real exploration of the broader issues? especially as they pertain to consumers, labor, and market health?

If you receive an illegal order, you have a duty to disobey.
This isn’t controversial.
A President calling for the execution of anyone who reminds service members of this oath is showing us why the duty to disobey illegal orders is so important in the first place.

“Piggy” is particularly egregious but he tells reporters to shut up all the time. He insults them personally and asks where they work before telling them they’re bad people.
The only way to know this is by watching the unedited videos because it’s so routine that it’s not considered newsworthy.
