Seems like they are the American version of TASS, or at least the GOP version.

The First Amendment guarantees a free press. It does not guarantee an alternate version of the facts. This disinformation, including the blaspheming of the true and authentic press, is an affront to our Constitution. It has to be stopped. It is a criminal syndicate whose message, at this level, cannot be tolerated. It's sad when it can be suggested, as it was last night on MSNBC, that Republicans are hesitating to impeach Trump because they don't want to offend FOX. That is SICK.
