President Donald Trump has been tweeting about "fake news" again, and this time he called for taking away the rights of the free press.
In response, Sen. Ben Sasse asked if Trump was "recanting" his oath as president to protect and defend the First Amendment.
Mr. President:
Are you recanting of the Oath you took on Jan. 20 to preserve, protect, and defend the 1st Amendment? pic.twitter.com/XLB7QXM3bQ
