Bring back the #fairnessdoctrine. Fox'll never 'flee' US, but: "Several years ago, [Fox] could not meet that nation’s impartiality and accuracy standards. Fox found non-biased reporting so challenging that it ultimately chose to stop broadcasting in the UK." #media

Here’s why: Air traffic controllers.

The government is in full shutdown and the Republicans are refusing to call the House back into session.
Want to know why?
Because we have secured the final vote on releasing the Epstein Files and they don’t want it out.
