    1) He's full of $#@! and blowing smoke.
    2) The government censoring the government isn't censorship.
    3) Censorship is already really goddam popular. And normal for 80 years at least.

    Why do you think our freedom-strong democracy's been complicit in the creation of the Five Conglomerates all these 3 decades?

    Congress revoked press RT credentials, stating that is new new registration as a "foreign agent", that Washington forced it to do under threat of forcible arrest of its executives, now disqualifies it from conducting journalism on Capital Hill.

    It is an attempt to silence and censor outlets that hosts guests critical of Washington neocon interventionist foreign policy.

    Don't know the technical rules on that but RT has published some very controversial articles about our domestic leaders in recent days.
    This is just one example from this week:


    Who Is Jared Kushner: Trump loyalist or Kissinger protege?

    Robert Bridge is an American writer and journalist. He is author of the book, 'Midnight in the American Empire,' released in 2013.
    Published time: 2 Dec, 2017

    Never before in the annals of US politics has a top presidential adviser had more of an inside track for influencing the White House than Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner. Will this turn out to be a problem for Trump in the future?

    Name any major event over the course of Trump's first year in office and you will undoubtedly find the doleful face of Jared Kushner lurking somewhere in the crowd, gazing on with rapt attention (or is it somber satisfaction?), a bit like an apprentice trapped in the floodlights of ultimate power.
    Beyond the question of Jared's omnipresence is his apparent knack for political survival. Although Trump tends to go through officials as rapidly as tweets, Jared has managed thus far to ride out the storm. Yet firing Jared – husband of Trump's daughter, Ivanka – would be more than your average political decision, which is probably why Trump should never have dabbled in nepotism to begin with. Or perhaps Jared Kushner remains in his top-level position not because he is the son-in-law of Donald Trump, or because he is so politically astute (thus far it would seem he is not), but precisely because some high-ranking people in the establishment want him there.
    Whatever the case may be, it is notable that while Trump's main allies – guys like Mike Flynn, Steve Bannon and Reince Priebus (all of whom were loathed by the establishment folks, incidentally) – fell to the wayside one after another, Kushner is one of the only top officials left over from the original Trump lineup. And his popularity among the establishment elite appears untarnished.
