 @CerstinMahlow@mastodon.acm.orgJust look at the start of chapter 12 of “It can’t happen here” with an excerpt of the book of dear leader. Sound familiar, doesn’t it?

 @cdarwin@c.imJournalists from The New York Times will not sign the Pentagon’s revised press pass policy, 
which threatens to punish them for ordinary news gathering protected by the First Amendment.
Since the policy was first announced, we have expressed concerns that it constrains how journalists can report on the U.S. military, 
which is funded by nearly $1 trillion in taxpayer dollars annually. 
The public has a right to know how the government and military are operating.
