He has never once deviated and won't start now.

Whether the media wants to make mention is based on whether they think they'll get eyeballs, and apparently, they don't think anyone really cares so they are giving it small attention. Media is about profit, and that's not likely to change.

Silence is demanded on real interest stories. Midas touch on you tube has some on this.

Just like the classified documents found at Pence's house. Silence. But on the other hand corporate media is still talking about Pres Biden's.

So there you have it. If McGonagall had interactions with Democrats, it would be non-stop coverage, and very negative.

it isn't about clicks, about making money, it's about protecting the fascist right. If this involved a Democrat it would be front page, segment 1 on cable news. What a story, an ex-Lover of McGonigal who dated him for a year without knowing he was married, and became suspicious of him when she found a big bag of cash in his apartment. This is click bait if only it involved Democrats.

It was McGonigal's ex-lover who turned him in to DOJ.

Today Stephanie Miller played a sound bite of Trump gas lighting us by bashing McGonigal and saying he should go to hell.

This should be 24/7 news.

11. Since it's obvious this guy is a traitor shouldn't the DOJ be doing something about/with him?

I'm so do with the "it's about clicks/money" "you don't get journalism" dismissiveness regarding our news media.

They are about preserving the ruling class and promoting a police state. End of story.
