I don't watch the news since last November, bad for my heart, and the one time I turned it on

Just now to see about the shooting and if they caught the guy or whatever woman whatever, and I look at CNN for 30 seconds and the host of the show or whatever is a Woman saying “the rhetoric from both sides is terrible.“

Now I’m pissed and I won’t watch any more news.

I haven’t watched news in years for this and countless other reasons.

Lies about us, to us, etc.

As they kill us and destroy our country.
They say their atrocities are our fault.
