JD Vance insisted Donald Trump had not banned CNN and his so-called reasoning was the very essence of Maga logic
In an outrageous breach of the First Amendment, Donald Trump has banned CNN and various other news outlets he doesn’t like from the White House.
It’s already wildly backfired on the president and shows every sign of falling apart, but for now we are indebted to JD Vance for explaining just why it’s not a ban at all. Oh no, absolute, totally, 100% not a ban. Right JD?

In a similar way Vance is not an idiot. He’s an utter cockwomble.

Man, JD Vance should do another tour of Europe to lecture them about defending free speech. https://t.co/sJuU4ww9Ay

It is a violation of the 5th amendment right to due process. Once the government grants access, it cannot refuse it without protocols – without a process.
