I've been waiting for this. I keep having visions of Trump's masked storm troopers dragging a journalist off camera during a live broadcast. This is where it's going. What's amazing is how quickly it's happening and STILL Republicans quiver in their closets.

Agreed. We’re veering that direction.

Obviously, the intent to tighten control on the press has to be a violation of the 1st amendment, as well as protecting their sources, but perhaps you could more clearly articulate the present safeguards or perhaps even point to how we, as citizens can support that effort.

All media outlets should be standing together against this orange tyrant not settling with him and paying $$$$. I hope those he goes after do not release their sources. When will this nightmare end??!!!

Today, reporters. Tomorrow, the opposition. We are all going to have to embrace secure communications. As a former telecom company regulatory manager, I can tell you that they hand over, without question, anything law enforcement asks for, as long as they have a subpeona, and I'm sure tech companies are no different.

This includes everyone on Substack too who gets inside scoop on things going on in the White House! I fear for the safety of all of you!
