Biggest Story? - General Kelly and the First Amendment

[EarnestPutz]

When General Kelly refused to accept questions from reporters
who were not from Gold Star families, that should have been the
biggest news to come out of the press conference. The administration
was limiting press access, and reporting, to a select group that they
deemed more sympathetic to their positions. The other reporters were in the
room, but were effectively being silenced because of their "bias". The next
step could be to only admit Fox News, Breitbart, Washington Times and their ilk.

1. That was what stood out for me among many racist and ugly things that day.

The misogyny and racism dripped out of his ugly mouth, but the fascism was really scary

[EarnestPutz]

2. Fascism is exactly right.

Sarah Huckabee Sanders was taken to task the
next day for suggesting that one shouldn't challenge
a General, but the General suggesting the official
government line could not be questioned by outsiders
really defines fascism. Everything subservient to the
welfare of the state.

3. Semper Fi! General Kelly, sir!

What is the administration's current thinking on nuking the fuck out of North Korea, sir?

(That Semper Fi was actually the first thing out of one of the reporter's mouths when he addressed Kelly at the press conference.)

4. Every news outlet he shunned should join a lawsuit against him
