Fox regularly pushes that envelope so that the concept of broadcast free speech is pretty hazy in most minds. That is fertile tillage for MAGAism. Such confusion, intentionally spread, is an abuse of the rights granted by the constitution to the extent that, should the pendulum swing toward justice some day, Jesse, along with his mentors, minions and co conspirators may be defending themselves against a charge of treason.
These for-profit political smut peddlers have a lot to account for in a world where promoting the general welfare is seriously considered a top priority. Removal from the public airwaves should be their minimum concern. Hard time would be appropriate for foreign propagandists of any stripe.

Yes, as I said, Trump should be subject to sanctions for violating the gag order.

Anyone know where Jesse lives? It would be a shame if somebody released it.

Jesse Watters will get someone murdered, but it won't be his fault, his crime, or a burden to his conscience

If the court and jury needs full sequestering, we can predict that Fox will say a "secret trial!" convicted TFS. nt
