Some here may not remember but while Obama was President the justice department spied upon many journalist. During that time Joe Biden was Obama’s Vice President. Why does the press continue to love Obama and Biden even knowing that they threatened the freedom of the press through the justice department spying on reporters? Do you think Biden/Harris will bring back spying on reporters? I think it’s possible they may do so using the storming of the Capital and right wing extremists as an excuse.

There is absolutely no need to spy on press, as there are no journalists left in this country - only propagandists on a payroll.

Will they have to? The mainstream media is already a consortium of slobbering, knee-padded, sycophantic toadies. They will "report" what the regime tells them to report.

Yep! I'll go further, no need to spy on the press when it's owned by the government.

The press was in an absolute love affair with Obama and yet Obama had phones and email of reporters tapped

You've been spied on your whole life and will be until your death regardless of which stooge currently resides at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

Unless you're walking around in a homemade faraday suit.

You mean all the bickering on cable news channels is just a big show?

Next thing you'll tell me is that taxation is armed robbery.

I don't need to tell you. You already know.

That's just a habitual thing. Dems spy on everybody, including themselves. You know, it's like stress eating - they just can't stop, even when there is no reason to spy.

They spied on the leftist media when Obama was president. Think it was NBC. Remember, the network that asked the DNC for questions to ask Jeb Bush. The network whose anchor sent an e-mail to Hillary's campaign, after his work as a moderator, bragging about how he had gotten Trump.
