OP
Calling them out for "bogus conspiracy theories" can't even remotely be considered covering for them

That's about as direct as it gets.

Maybe not as harsh as we might like, but still accurate.

Forwarding that kind of stuff is certainly within your rights, but that doesnt make it helpful, nor in accordance with consensual reality.

(9,213 posts)6. How about this one "Democrats could impeach Trump by Christmas"
This was the headline on their site right now that I saw as misleading.
It would be the House impeaching Trump, not the "Democrats". Regardless of who in the House votes yay or nay, the House is a legislative body that puts out a decision. It is not a partisan institution, yet it is made up of political parties who were voted in and represent their district. The House is the will of the people.
