Pam Bondi rescinded Merrick Garland's.....
protection order of members of the media from having their phone records seized. Bondi’s new orders will seize phone records of the reporter’s or have them forced to testify in conjunction with any investigation of leaking information from any administration officials.
Boy, they are all so evil! The word of an “anonymous source” is going out the window with this administration! This is just another example of dictatorship!
I just have to wonder why they are so afraid of the leaks? What are they doing criminally wrong? Oh so many things are so wrong with this administration! This takes away the ability to do what the media does best to get information from sources and to alarm the public of nefarious activities from the administration! So, let’s look at chapter 1 of “Signalgate”? It was their own mistake bringing in a media reporter to the illegal activity of telling sensitive information over an unsecured phone. Now jumping to chapters 2 & 3, Hegseth is the leaker! What will they do with that? Another point, what if the administration leaks something on purpose and it blows up in the faces, who will they go after for that leak? Amazing how much they hate freedom of the press!

I think a whole lot of folks have discovered that letting things slide for the good of the country isn't for the good of the country. But will we play by their rules in order to save the country? Probably not. We'll continue to bring knives to gun fights. 
We may never get an opportunity to rebuild what once was. That first "letting them get away with it" may be irrecoverable. Biden's Justice Dept. may have fiddled and now it's too late. If so, history will not be terribly kind, nor should it be. Honestly, I don't think the country will survive all this in its current form. We're less than 1/3 of the way into the first of 4+ years and so much is going straight to hell. What that new form will be, I don't know, but I do think the current state is unsustainable. If you think enough Republicans will impeach and save the status quo we grew up in, forget it. Article 1, Section 3 of our very own Constitution, coupled with current politics won't allow that to happen. Khrushchev may be right. We collapsed from within. Undone by our own people and flaws in our own system.
It's natural to think what we've known is static, but think again. I'm reminded of George Washington's transformation. In the 1760's he had a few beefs with the British Army and wasn't all that fond of Parliament's stamp and sugar acts, but like his ancestors he was as staunchly loyal to the British Crown as ever. If you'd told him in 1765 that in 10 years he'd be in command of a rebel army opposing the British Crown he'd have thought you'd lost your mind. I don't think we'll repeat a bloody war, but I do think things will be a whole lot different by 2030. Some things for the good. Some not.
