I will not give a platform to flat out lies.

What is going on with Hunter and Joe Biden is a joke, is bullshit. Multi-year investigations have produced nothing. I choose not to click on lies about the Biden’s, I don’t need to to defend the Biden’s with lengthy arguments.
People viewing right wing sites have been programmed to confusing a wall with a fence.

Magats lie, Magats are the fascist Nazis not Democrats. I know all of this without watching lies on TV. Saying Biden is too old is a joke and is propaganda. Should I watch Russian state TV so that I can rebut it? Magat politicians push Putin talking points, that’s how I respond.
