Re: Politics and the Church
I agree with Ohio that there is a lot of fake news on these cable news networks. For example, I heard many people on CNN and MSNBC say that Trump was "petty" for revoking the security clearance of one of his critics. How do they know its petty? How do they know that Trump isn't planning on authorizing some very disturbing clandestine operations and doesn't need someone who is critical of him reading about it?
If Obama did this no one would be saying it was "petty". Imagine if Clinton did this during the Whitewater investigation or Nixon did this after Watergate.
This is certainly every bit as chilling as what McCarthy did. What an insult to characterize what McCarthy did as "petty". And words matter. If the President is indeed "petty" then suing him over this would also be deemed petty. This is not simply a constitutional matter and a first amendment matter, it could very well be a national security issue.
