I think you need some real time fact checking.

It's not journalistic bias to point out that one side, and only one side, is obviously lying.

with live and unlimited free press coverage for Trump. They did it for his rallies, showing empty podiums as they waited breathlessly for him to appear. Now they're giving him free coverage of what are essentially election rallies. Love the major hosts like Rachel, Lawrence, etc., but the news programming/producers of the daily news act like corporate shills.

I imagine he knows there is no better pedigree than being fired by this porcine dumbass.

The problem will be in replacing him when this porcine dumbass is on the ash heap of history.

If you can watch him contradict his experts who are highly trained physicians and still think he is doing great as President, you are seriously deluded or brainwashed. It just galls me every time he opens his yap about anything to do with this crisis whether it is about the appropriate drugs used to treat it, use of masks or who is responsible for providing ventilators. Just shut the f up you low life slug. In fact, get off the stage, go away and don’t come back. We don’t need you and in fact, are sick of the sight of you and the sound of your voice.

Oh, how I wish I or someone — ANYONE — could say that to his ugly face!!! 😡🤬🤬🤬😡

Maybe I'll watch on CNN with the sound muted. I do like to know what's going on, just can't stand listening to his vicious, death inducing and personal profiteering lies.

Dr. Fauci persists in telling the truth. And he never praises Trump's strong powerful greatness. Clear grounds for dismissal.

That’s the kind of “Propaganda Torpedo” we need to seed into the religious right. Yes it’s below the belt, but we can’t afford to be nice and let this crook continue destroying the country.

Plant this idea into feet-washing Baptists and other apocalyptic cults and it will fester. They cant resist the mixture of guilt, sex and revenge from above, it’s like catnip for them.
