🤣 “Confiscated”… or they could have just said “revoked”, but no, “confiscated” makes it sound like Hegseth bound and gagged them forever. No, you can’t roam the halls of the Pentagon barging in on classified meetings whenever you want.
It’s like the old 90’s SNL skit where the Arab reporters in the back of the White House briefing room keep trying to determine exactly when and where the US will attack Iraq. Maybe you don’t agree with the ruling government’s policies, but the 1st Amendment is about restricting government overreach to regulate and stifle the press, not about giving the press the ability to do and say and go whatever and wherever they damn well please. There are such things as privacy laws and anti-defamation laws because the press overreaches sometimes too.
