For CNN’s Jim Acosta, it’s been a Dangerous Time to Tell the Truth in America™ for the last nearly four years, and he wants everybody to know that the danger hasn’t yet passed:

As some worry about Trump having access to nuclear codes, recalling what I reported about Trump’s 2017 trip to Puerto Rico where he was showing off nuclear football to the governor. pic.twitter.com/MgfFxv87A6

By “some worry” Acosta means he’s got less than two weeks left with Trump in office and no talking point will go unexhausted come January 20th.

Don’t worry, Jim. You’ll be able to go back to sleep on January 21st. https://t.co/Xjj1zHaPWS

"Dear Diary, it's almost over now. Less than 2 weeks & I don't know who I can write about now. I'm sort of scared. I will make one last blitz against orange man before it's over." https://t.co/FC0lP4fwEu

By sharing a quote from his own story from three years ago, Acosta got more people alarmed enough to call on the government to invoke the 25th Amendment immediately, so it’s “mission accomplished” for CNN’s chief Resistance reporter.
