tRump LIES & legit media immediately issues it as a headline. The LIE is now legitimized. The

message is out. So many people go no further. That is the talking point. That is what people are left to believe. Mission accomplished for the tRump messaging team.

The latest LIE, of course, is the Iran/Israel "cease fire": Headlines everywhere as if it were true.

When the Minnesota Democratic lawmakers were murdered, gravely injured, terrorized by a tRumpster. The immediate "statement" from the tRump messaging team was that the murderer was targeting "pro-abortionists". What the fuck? That fucking shooter was targeting Democrats. That should have been the headline.

We used to have a Media and Supreme Court that was part of the checks and balances.........

7. Yes - I remember that. The GOP/Putin message machine responds immediately to get THEIR message front and center.

All they're looking for is confirmation bias and validation
of their crazy conspiracy theories.
