If Hegseth were confident in his ability to lead our troops—who literally swore an oath to defend the right to a free press—he wouldn't need to do it in secret.

He must undo these restrictions.

Americans deserve to know how DoD is spending its nearly $1 trillion budget.

Five major broadcast news networks announce they will not sign the Pentagon’s new press policy, joining several other media organizations that have objected to a set of rules that many journalists consider restrictive.

Five major broadcast networks say they will not sign new Pentagon press policy

The new policy says reporters could have their press passes revoked if they publish information that has not been authorized for release by the Pentagon.

I don't think I've seen a network TV news report more transparently full of shit since maybe 2003, right before we invaded Iraq

The only way to get No Kings is:

Impeach + Remove NOW

Dismantling the VRA is their plan. An all out attack on black/brown representation that would give Republicans a hammer-lock on power.

A potentially 20-plus house seat shift. Pay attention.

🚨IRS, FBI, Federal Marshals, MPD, DEA, ICE, HLS, and ATF here to “investigate” this woman. Suspicious for being black? The regime has made their white supremacism clear. The time for us to reject it is NOW!

Don’t know who else needs to hear this but it would be good to have a strong showing of American Flags at the rallies on Saturday to combat the GOP talking points that it’s a “hate America” rally!!

Please repost and pass this on to as many as possible!!

Not reposting the nonsense from the right about how Saturday's march is ANTI-AMERICAN! SOROS-FUNDED!

What they're saying is so nonsensical that it reeks of desperation.

They're scared of a simple display of mass opposition.

Bring your American flags, folks.
It's a pro-America, pro-democracy march

Q: This has been reported for a while. Cory Mills was accused of beating a girlfriend in his DC apt. Are you concerned about these allegations?

JOHNSON: You have to ask Rep. Mills about that. He's been a faithful colleague. I don't know the details. Let's talk about things that are really serious

My wife is worried about my safety attending the No Kings rally on Saturday. This is the exact reason we need to stand and be counted. This administration wants us to be afraid.

American fascists are, obviously, very scared about how big a protest "No Kings" will be this weekend, as seen by their hysterical, dishonest rhetoric about it.

Let's make their fears come true by showing up on October 18

ABOLISH ICE and EXPAND THE SUPREME COURT should be mainstream Democratic promises and talking points.

But timidity and civility will rule the day and screw the rest of us and this country in the end.

All the press reporters have handed in their press badges to the Pentagon, even Fox propaganda News handed in their press badges. The regime is losing control. We the People are fighting back. The regime is going to increase the violence to try to get us back down. Don't stop the resistance.
