Calling the press “fake news” is harmful. Calling them “seditious, perhaps even treasonous” for publishing reporting is something else entirely. Treason is a capital crime. Suggesting journalists should face it for exercising their First Amendment rights and doing their jobs is dangerous.

It is absolutely wild that the guy who won’t stop yelling about law and order is now personally stepping in to keep January 6 documents hidden from the police officers who were attacked that day. He knows exactly what’s in those files and he is terrified the country will see it.

Cheney had Halliburton. Trump has Vulcan Elements. If Don Jr. profits from a Pentagon-backed rare-earth venture while Trump shapes policy around Coltan-rich nations, that’s corruption on a scale we haven’t seen since the Iraq contractor era.

Let's not forget, there was a BIPARTISAN border bill that Trump killed by pressuring GOP members of Congress -- because he didn't want Biden to have a win.
