The long standing and excellent Main Stream Media is under attack and it is completely unacceptable.
I have watched Kristen Welker from her earliest days in broadcasting. She is an excellent journalist. It is no surprise to me she is leading the profession at NBC and the White House. She is focused, compassionate, and precise. She is everything a first rate journalist with leadership capacity should be. The attack by the dictator-king-coward in the White House of Kristen Welker is all political and out of line with rules of journalism and the Rule of Law.
The rule of interacting with a world class journalist is simple, they ask the questions and the interviewee answers to the best of one's ability. Because Trump lives in a world he creates for himself does not give him the right to complain. Not legally.
This country has been through at least two decades of some of the most political nonsense at FOX News that has sought to destroy this democracy. Not only were women victimized by men at the top of the company, but, Murdoch Media has a long history of invasive practices that bring scandals to the public and not important facts that lead to informed decisions at the ballot box. A prime example of FOX's bizarre corporate culture is the hideous numbers of FOX employees currently serving in the Trump administration. It is easy to say Murdoch's media is seeking to take over the power structure of the USA for it's own ideology. There is no question about that understanding. It is obvious. The people serving Trump make a lot more money working at FOX than they do working in government. Their purposes are overtly questionable.
Realizing the level of racketeering existing with this administration along with the ideology of "Truth Social" the attacks on the Free Press of the Main Stream Media is an obvious attack on Freedom of Speech, the First Amendment including the free practice of any religion in the country, and the USA Constitution in general.
The FCC is not in the position to begin a witch hunt to undermine the high quality of journalism in this country. There will be no attack on Kristen or an interruption in her broadcast. There is no declining FCC licensure to ANY media as it is a life blood to Americans and it will remain free and open. The FCC is way out of line and attacking world class journalism in the USA.
Trump's temper tantrums do not amount to any form of quality of governance. He is out of control and showing his temper as a person that enjoys confrontation over and above any form of civilized communication. If Trump insists on making an ass of himself on a daily basis it should do it in his free time and not the time he is serving in the White House. He should attempt to be a real president and not a faux copy of one.
Trump has obvious mental instability that is well documented openly by world class psychiatrists worried for the country. His influence as president to undermine this country's democratic government including free and open mailing services guaranteed by the USA Constitution amounts to some of the most hideous acts of any president in this country's history.

...KRISTEN WELKER: (click here)
Thank you so much for being here. We are going to talk about your visit, why you’re here in Wisconsin. But I’d like to start off by talking about the major issue that you are focused on every day which is Iran. Sunday will mark 100 days since the first strikes. Your secretary of state, Marco Rubio, said that the war had concluded. And yet, just this week, Iran attacked U.S. allies in the region, calling it retaliation for a set of U.S. air strikes. Is the United States at war with Iran?
PRES. DONALD TRUMP:
Well, they’ve been largely decapitated. And I call it a military exercise because people would rather have it called that. It’s not a big war for us. It’s not. We have the most powerful military in the world. I built it, frankly. I built it in my first four years. And I’m using it a little bit in my second four years. Their navy is gone. Their air force is gone. Their anti-aircraft is gone. They might’ve built it up a little bit over the last four weeks during this little ceasefire that we did at the request of some very good people, very, very fine people from — actually from numerous places, as you know. You know, there are a lot of people involved. But from Pakistan in particular, the field marshal and the prime minister. And we’re very close to having a deal. And if we don’t have a deal, we’ll do it one way or the other. Either way, we win....
