1. By any objective measure, Fox News Corps. programing like @FoxNews @Foxandfriends @TuckerCarlson @seanhannity @IngrahamAngle @MariaBartiromo and the like are extreme rightwing anti-government propaganda and improper for any military command to prefer over another news outlet.
2. It's up to civilian regulators and economic forces to deal with Fox News in the civilian context, but its connection to the violent attempt to overthrow the US should end any preference for it by the military & would justify an outright ban for purpose of military discipline.
3. If the tie-in that forces consumers to subsidize Fox News Corp is ended and damages paid for the past five years times three, it's likely Fox News Corp will be unable to continue to pose a national security threat. If the @JusticeATR does not act by February, the plaintiff's
4. bar can commence Sherman Act litigation to end Fox's unlawful subsidies. The major shareholders that control the board should act to end it. I know of no immunity they possess to Sherman Act criminal penalties. @blackrock @Vanguard_Group @StateStreet @TRowePrice @MorganStanley

1. @MSNC just reported McConnell opened session in Senate with a foreboding comment about Trump and his enablers. Here is part:

"The last time the senate convened, we had just reclaimed the capitol from violent criminal who tried to stop congress from doing our duty. The mob
2. was fed lies. They were provoked by the president and other powerful people. And they tried to use fear and violence to stop a specific proceeding of the first branch of the federal government which they did not like. But we pressed on. We stood together and said an angry mob
3. would not get veto power over the rule of law in our nation, not even for one night. We certified the people's choice for their 46th president. Tomorrow president-elect Biden and vice president-elect Harris will be sworn in."

@SenSchumer in the well now.

1. I don't think Michael Ellis will last long at NSA. First, his hiring was not merit based and violated the Civil Serice Act, 5 USC 2301(b)(1). President-elect Biden will soon be briefed on Trump's connections to the Kremlin that IMO should make any holdover political appointee
2. burrowed in immediately subject to POTUS power to order loyalty investigations. See 5 USC, 1304(c). Until they are complete, I'd expect power exists to suspend them or at least revoke their security clearance and ban them from secure facilities. I'm pretty sure Ellis was
3. sent there to report to the SVR on how much of their operations have been compromised. And too bad for Vlad, tomorrow's a holiday so HR will be closed. Tuesday may be a busy day and by noon Wednesday he should be walked off the property.

1. What if every person buying or selling guns and/or ammunition had to sign a form each time under penalty of perjury that tracks the language of the SF-86 form?

"I have never advocated any acts of terrorism or activities designed to overthrow the U.S. Government by force." ✅
2. The statute that criminalize this conduct states "force OR violence." My brother and I once long pondered what is force that is not also violence? IMO the actions of @HawleyMO @TedCruz and the treason caucus advocated force in the well of the House and Senate. They advocated
3. forcing @VP Pence to simply hand Trump the presidency again. That is force without violence though later in the day their calls ripened into a violent attack and insurrection. To save America the members of the treason caucus must be charged. @HawleyMO @tedcruz @SenHydeSmith

1. The SF-86 form Question 29.3 is the thing that will end the @GOP and Trumpism.

"29.3 Have you EVER advocated any acts of terrorism or activities designed to overthrow the U.S. Government by
force?"

Every person who was at the Capitol attack will have to check yes. Everyone
2. who supported Trump Stop the Steal like his seditious @Senategop @HouseGOP members all will have to check yes. @FoxNews hosts, people who appeared to call for the overthrow will have to check yes. 18 year-olds in red states who supported Trump's overthrow will have to
3. check yes if they try to enlist. Every member of the current military who supported Trump's overthrow will have to check yes. Every person who is identified at one of the rallies to overthrow the election that Trump called for at state capitols will have to check yes.

1. A reminder: @POTUS Trump, @IvankaTrump @DonaldJTrumpJr @EricTrump @tedcruz @HawleyMO @replouiegohmert @RepMoBrooks @MarkMeadows @ScottforFlorida and the other #SeditiousSeven have not done full noisy withdrawals from the Trump crime family seditious conspiracy & insurrection.
2. Therefore, all the crimes that come from the Trump conspiracy remain chargable to these conspirators. They can and should be charged if any acts of violence occur in DC or at state capitols and the full extent of the punishments that attend these crimes should determine
3. whether they are afforded bail. And no lawful punishment should be off the table when they are charged. @SenHydeSmith @CynthiaMLummis @RogerMarshallMD @TTuberville @hogangidley45 @PressSec

1. IMO James Jeffrey is a dangerous Islamist and should be shunned and IMO can be charged, along with Trump and @mikepompeo, with Christian, Ezidi and Kurdish genocide.

Biden Doesn’t Need a New Middle East Policy foreignaffairs.com/articles/middl… via @ForeignAffairs
2. Remember: Erdogan is ISIS. He armed them. Fed them. Gave them hospital care to return them to the battle & allowed them to run an Ezidi slave market in Gaziantep, Turkey. With top cover air support for the SDF we can expel Turkey's ISIS and Al-Qaeda force in 60 days.
3. DOJ should alos consider charging Erdogan for sanction violations.

Once all of Northern Syria from Derik to Afrin is free of Turkeys' ISIS/Al-Qaeda force, if they are willing, the SDF can assist in recruiting a Sunni force to liberate Idlib and end the Jihadist control of
