First they attacked the free press in general terms ("enemy of the people"). Now they've attacked one journalist specifically (note it's a woman). They're revving up for a time when they could do worse than that - and if given a second term, they will.This is a blinking red light

Fear mongering much?
Replying to @marwilliamson
It’s going to escalate, especially if there r signs from the press corps that these intimidation tactics work (a backing off of tough questions or certain topics). There’s never been a greater need for a full-court press from our 4th Estate—across the board; print & cable.

Of the belief that women and minorities are chattel an white men rule supreme. Frightening. And rather foul mouthed for such a pious man.

We as citizens HAVE to demand only greatness from ALL our leaders! Why do we simply accept McConnell’s conduct. Mothers expect more from their kids & they grow into it. They become what we expect from them. Maybe if we collectively demand it we can positively cause that w/them.

This whole thing stinks. Now people are asking whether @kellynpr correctly identified Ukraine. She’s the journalist; she gets to ask the questions. Pompeo was humiliating her. She should have slugged him.
