And yet this , via Fox News it is being openly discussed by the exponents of small goverment and the US administrations and GOP trade mark .
Not sure who fired first shots as it is a symbiotic partnership and confusing who actually leads this piss pile administration now.

Well that's 24 carat bollocks and you know it.
He's using the office of POTUS to undermine the freedom of the press, hence failing to uphold the first amendment, a clear violation of his duty to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States. Just one of several impeachable offences he's committed.

Not to worry,if a blue wave comes in November the administration will be up to their necks in free speech and what it means for this president and the Administration over the next couple of years .

A post facto award for trashing his career.I suspect he would have rather it hadn't happened in the first place.Let's be honest about this, it's doubtful he will ever be viewed in the same light again.

One problem being he's stuffed the Supreme Court with 'Hawks' who will no doubt continue to push a right wing agenda long after he has left office.

The BBC's new political flagship programme 'Politics Live' (replacement for The Daily Politics Show) was discussing 'has social media made politics more toxic' at lunchtime today.
All the guests i.e. politicians from both sides plus media journalists including Laura Kuenssberg argued that it had.The consensus being that social media postings on Twitter and FB are nasty, bullying and some are downright illegal.Those on the programme said many M.P.s were now reticent to speak up because of the vitriolic attacks they are being subjected to.
Apparently it is much worse for women M.P.s than for men but unacceptable for both genders.Emily Thornberry stated that you get a far different conversation when talking to people face to face than when people have the anonymity of posting online.
It's an interesting watch - available on BBC iPlayer

Is it a political programme or Loose Women?

Yes but the they ticked the box for all female guests.
I'm not sure if your're arguing that because there was only one committed brexiteer on the show today (that we know of) the argument that social media has/is making politics more toxic is not valid?In fact the Telegraph journalist (leaver) was quite vociferous in her dislike of the way people are behaving on social media.
My first thoughts on the new programme are - it felt very much like a political version of Loose Women.I will give it a couple of weeks, though my initial impression was it's a bit 'lightweight'.
Apparently the new head of live political programming at the beeb Rob Burley, thought the programme needed a new direction, to reflect the digital age (cliche cough cough).There will be more video segments and less intense scrutiny of guests.I think that's code for 'people these days have the attention span of a gnat and aren't able to follow debate'.
The BBC News website on mobile is a case in point.Far far to many video stories with a dearth of column inches.I like to read my news not watch a dumb down video feed.
