This is the moment that Donald Trump threatens an ABC reporter after they asked about free speech. Speaking with ABC News Chief Washington Correspondent Jonathan Karl on Tuesday (16 September), the president appeared to become annoyed after the reporter asked him about Pam Bondi’s crackdown on “hate speech”. “A lot of your allies say hate speech is free speech,” Mr Karl said, to which Mr Trump responded: “She’d probably go after people like you because you treat me so unfairly. It’s hate. You have a lot of hate in your heart.” After slamming ABC, the president claimed that he “wants everything to be fair” and placed blame with the “radical left who have done tremendous damage to the country”.
Press are unarmed, it’s what gets them a pass into a lot of situations that armed people don’t get to go to.
It’s sort of a big part of their identity.
Fundamental aspects of the press need to change or we’ll continue watching them whitewash everything. Plus I wanna see SCOTUS justify gun control for Fox News people in writing.
Armed reporters are antithesis to everything they stand for.
