You keep missing the key component 'public business'. Public figures are entitled to and should have privacy in their personal business. When that public figure is discussing or meeting or communicating public business - full transparency is required. If Laura wants a private conversation with a public official she should discuss Thanksgiving dinner not public business. The really funny thing here is that Laura's job at this time is literally telling millions of people every night what she thinks about this same topic. And from my own perspective and view any government official that wants to spend my money or make laws that impact me and keep secrets about it can go fuck themselves because I don't fully trust them to begin with and definitely don't see any reason to trust them if they are hiding something.
The obvious question here: why does Fox have an inside track to Mark Meadows and donald trump? Do we need any more evidence that Fox is not a legitimate news network, but an arm of the Treason Party?
If Laura texted Mark from her phone paid by FOX; then FOX can have that information. No privacy If she texts from her private phone to Marks government phone the government can have that information. No privacy If She texts from her personal phone to his personal phone AND its not about public business - its private and they can sue if they are damaged because the conversation is made public If She texts from her personal phone to his personal phone AND it is to influence or impact public business - then its not private. And they have also violated the same things Hillary did with her private email server.
Amazing whining from the party and its network that supported the subpoena of Hunter Biden, an entirely private citizen. And, by the way, sure, this is an invasion of privacy. But a perfectly legal and fair one. It was Mark Meadows, a government employee and party to the conversations, that delivered up the goods, not some government seizure of private citizens. Get ready for it: there is a more than even chance that Congress will make trump's tax returns public.
I heard that Bill Oreilly said that the texts from FOX news personalities should not have happened and management would have stopped it from happening when he was at the network.
so in this case, if hannity is texting the private phone of mark meadows, and he suggest trump would be smart to speak out against riot, then he is no longer allowed privacy? he can have no opinion on this that isnt public info?
yeah you got em, they are hypocrites. and racists. if we were talking about X instead of Y, they would be different. we know.
This was not two guys talking in a bar over a beer. If Hannity just wanted to express opinion he and Laura could have exchanged texts - and that would have been private protected conversation. But this was not about expressing opinions. In the middle of a national crisis Hannity, who is a person of influence nationally, text the government official closest to the president and suggested a course of action that he thought would help resolve the crises Hannity was not making casual conversation and he was not just passing opinion. His purpose was to influence government action. Thats public business.
