True Patriots should have cancelled their cable subscriptions years ago and cut off Faux Noise and Murdoch's profit center. "Give me Liberty or give me Tucker" - an easy choice for patriots.

Humans are complicated, by the way, and Cassidy H. is definitely human but she has gotten the right and honorable place before any of the other seditionists in that inner circle. Absolutely a 'John Dean' moment, thank God!

It's the "No true Scotsman" trope.

More like taking back the term 'patriot' rather than ceding it to authoritarians. Otherwise the malicious Right can turn all words to their own liking. Fake News for instance. Trump coopted it to mean any news that was unflattering to him. But I reserve the right to call Russian bots fake news.
