FTR I always thought you were a guy because...well..Kahless is male in Star Trek cannon. But I guess if Nick Fury can go from white to black and then we find out that the black Nick Fury is really the white Nick Fury's son but they both lose the same eye.....oh nevermind. Good post regardless.

I propose a different style of communication during these Q&A's.
I am not a high tech kind of person but it seems like it would be pretty easy to eliminate the microphone all together. It could be as easy as the person speaking does so thru their phone or a White House supplied device. This goes thru a switchboard and can be shut off at the presidents request.
Problem solved.

It depends on your definition of assault. People have been charged with assaulting police officers for much less.
https://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/Assault
Based on the interns reaction, I think one could reasonably argue that his move caused apprehension...At Common Law, an intentional act by one person that creates an apprehension in another of an imminent harmful or offensive contact.
Generally, the essential elements of assault consist of an act intended to cause an apprehension of harmful or offensive contact that causes apprehension of such contact in the victim.

Of course in the real world -- not legal world -- I'd laugh at this as "assault" but I haven't seen Acosta be a big proponent of ending such shenanigans.... So maybe he deserves to reap what he has sowed.

Not sure if you're being serious or trolling. If you're using the "public microphone" argument then what is the point of a press pass? Why can't Snoop Dog just walk up in there, grab the mic and start rapping? I can't dominate a "public street" for as long as I want. A police officer (a member of the executive branch) can come and tell me to "move it along" if I decide to park my car there indefinitely.

Trolling. Step 2 is explaining how, as a means of transmitting messages, that microphone should be under the control of the post office as per the constitution. It's actually a less stupid argument than claiming that he assaulted her by karate chopping her arm, which is really saying something.
FTR only Dannno used the "karate chop" argument. You don't have to cause harm or intend to cause harm to someone to be guilty of the definition of assault. Corey Lewindowsky is a prime example of someone charged with assault without causing or intending to cause harm.
Also what does the post office have to do with this? This is a White House microphone, not a post office microphone. Microphones didn't exist at the time the constitution was written, but the executive branch does have delegated authority under the constitution to purchase and control equipment necessary for its function, be that a White House horse and carriage, a White House airplane (Air Force One) or a White House Microphone.

Actually, I described it as a "light karate chop" because that is the motion his arm took when he struck her arm with his hand.
The reason is because a karate chop is a universally recognized arm motion, whereas references to obscure forms are martial arts and lesser known maneuvers doesn't make any sense to mention.
There are two reasons for doing this.
First, it is an accurate depiction of the arm motion and strike.
Second, seeing leftists defend Acosta's actions by arguing that it wasn't a "karate chop" is entertaining because he did actually lightly karate chop her arm. Typically a karate chop is a full force strike, and this was not a full force strike. That is their argument, that it wasn't a full force strike, and that is some funny $#@!.

“The spirits of darkness are now among us. We have to be on guard so that we may realize what is happening when we encounter them and gain a real idea of where they are to be found. The most dangerous thing you can do in the immediate future will be to give yourself up unconsciously to the influences which are definitely present.” ~ Rudolf Steiner
