    So you now support the FBI going after reporters and jailing them if they do not name their sources?

    Just like the Trump right wants to suppress the free press.

    If Obama and Trump both want to suppress a free press, then both are wrong.

    Making up new definitions typifies the alt right.

    Nop, the far right has always wanted to throttle the anti-Trump oriented free press.

    Only the left wingers are desperate enough to suggest inaccurate doesn’t mean false

    Only Obama wanted to do that. Trump isn’t getting in the way of you getting duped by Buzzfeed, but he’s happy to call them what they are Fake News

    Hannity, Coulter and Limbaugh are reporters ? You have a low bar. Now, educate yourself what a subpoena is before you embarrass yourself again.

    They are entitled to the same protection as any other reporter whether you think they are reporters or not.

    Why would you go after them? They don't go out and investigate things and use unnamed sources, they only report on them. You would now go after people who merely report the news too?

    Like who? It's the left that wants Fox News totally shutdown. It was President Obama who refused to take questions from them or asked them to news briefings with the President. It was Obama who jailed two of them and surveilled news agencies.

    Well, you have a president that try’s to set up backchannels, meets with dictators in private with no interpretor but Putin’s, works to lift sanctions on Russia, and wants to give Russia the ultimate gift, the US leaving Nato. Trump is a traitor...he should be investigated from day one.

    You think a subpoena is an arrest warrant ? Dillysional. It’s a requirement to appear in court. No one has anything to worry if they don’t lie. Oops. I guess because lying comes natural, they may have lots to worry about.

    Are you talking about someone else? I did not say a word about arrest warrants. You appear to be very confused.

    What mueller said was

    BuzzFeed's description of specific statements to the Special Counsel's Office, and characterization of documents and testimony obtained by this office, regarding Michael Cohen's Congressional testimony are not accurate,"​
    The statement does not say anything,
    It says buzz feeds characterization is not accurate
    Let me give an example of the difference
    I could say. “Nothing you said was correct”
    Or i could say that your characterization of muellers statement is not accurate
    Saying that your characterization is not accurate is not the same as saying it is totally wrong

    So, my point then is that the mueller statement leaves room for the buzzfeed story to have some truth to it.. From trumps history, it is unlikely that cohen simply freelanced his lies before congress. It is also extremely unlikely that several people would independently invent similar lies.... so my conjecture is that there was some organizational effort to get everyone telling the same story. And it is inconcievable to me that this would happen without trump's involvement. I expect that there will be some sort of additional evidence of this that mueller will detail in his report (whenever that arrives). Clearly, what ever mueller has will be less than what buzzfeed wrote. But my OPINION is that there will certainly be evidence of trump involvement in constructing and promulgating the false story about trump tower moscow. This may mean that he set out the shape of false story for public dissemination sometimes before the congressional hearing.... but he might not explicitly directed that story to be told to congress

    But this is all speculation until the report comes out

    Vote to remove Trump from office. The House impeaches. The Senate tries.
