As long as the border and shut down distraction keeps getting reported on @cnn without equal coverage about the money that McConnell accepted from Russian oligarchs and all of the GOP interactions with Kremlin officials since 2009, I'll be watching C-SPAN and tuning into Maddow.
I've had enough of them trying to get the Democrats to give a wannabe dictator billions of dollars for a giant racist monument that nobody wants, earlier the banner read that the Dems and Trump refused to cooperate on the shutdown.

Our country is in dire trouble
This isn't about a political dispute, it's about a complicit GOP party giving concessions to our enemies for a compromised illegitimate president.

It's about the right embracing deep fried fascism in Nazi rhetoric sauce.

1. This thread will take a closer look at the #FakeNews media.

"The people will believe what the media tells them they believe." –George Orwell

#MAGA #WWG1WGA #QAnon #QArmy #WeThePeople #Trump #OneNationUnderGod #GreatAwakening #UnitedWeStand #KAG #Americafirst
2. During the Cold War, one news commentator ironically noted that the Soviet people were actually less brainwashed than Westerners. In the USSR, people would receive Pravda and immediately toss it in the trash, saying “Ah! Party propaganda!”

#MAGA #WWG1WGA #QAnon #KAG #Trump
3. But in America, people would get the New York Times and believe every word, under the illusion that “we have a free press, so we can’t possibly be brainwashed.”

Dr. Mark Crispin Miller, Professor of Media Studies at NYU echoed these same sentiments:

Humanitarian Wars for democracy and freedom are false and lying - 13

The so-called "moderate rebels"

#Syria #WarCrimes #FakeNews #lies #terrorism #aggression #Hypocrisy #FalseFlag #bastards #IillegalWar #Criminals #CriminalDamage #DoubleStandard #ModerateRebels
1.
 What was the UN created for?
What was the United Nations charter created for?
What were human rights associations created for?
What was the International Criminal Court created for?

Enough of double standars and hypocrisy. Enough is enough.
2.
 If wars can be started by lies, they can be stopped by truth.”
