Trump has now banned CNN, MS Now, and Politico from entering the White House grounds.
That's not all. He's threatening that more news organizations that criticize him, including the New York Times and Washington Post will be next.
Why? Because when a want to be authoritarian like Trump is in trouble, they want to control the flow of information and silence the media and journalists who would hold him accountable.
Trump must not be allowed to undermine the First Amendment, the Constitution, and our democracy.
We will not stand by quietly and accept authoritarianism!
If the Republican dominated Congress does not stand publicly and vocally against this agressive suppression of our rights, using the full power of their office to prevent it, then they have proven to the American people that their loyalty is to a man and an ideology, not to their constituents, the Constitution, or our country.
The hypocrisy is astounding. It seems as if the Republican Party's moto should be "Freedom for me and not for thee."
The American people are watching you and we will show up in mass to the mid-terms to vote in representatives that defend our Constitutional rights over Trump's precious ego.
You will be held accountable.
