No shame, no integrity, no accountability
Another week, dozens of new revelations proving it beyond any doubt that the Left has gone insane, the current administration is all about America Last, and the feckless, lying media is the number one threat to the well-being of our civilisation. Simply astounding is the extent of media’s cover-ups (this week, Hunter’s racist texts discovered on the “laptop from hell”), blatant lies (Trump’s photo-op — tear-gassing folks at Lafayette Square — proven to be a total lie this week), shameless conduct (I mean, the clowns at CNN brought Toobin back, yeah, that Toobin who “pleasured himself” live on a Zoom call… <vomit emoji>), and failure to do actual journalism (the situation at the border is worse than ever, but it’s crickets on MSM).
