    Pretty good deconstruction by Stephen on the “fake news” piece.  Very, very tired of the short memories in the media and on the left regarding their own propagation of fake “truths” that serve the narrative; Stephen hit on several but their number is legion.

    Ricochet Audio Network: Jon’s song of the week is “Colour Television” by Eddy Current Suppression Ring

    This was my mindset leading up to the election.

    So I’ve given Stephen Miller grief in the past, I’m merely noting HUZZAH on his fake news rant. More of this, please!

    Update: I’m guessing this is his rant with a three-piece suit on: https://heatst.com/politics/fake-news-media/

    You may owe Jeff Sessions an apology for calling him the Right’s Eric Holder. Ouch!

    Jon – you really need to park your anti-Trumpism.

    The relentless repeating of leftists memes (particularly the “Trump was in the WH with a dumbfounded look,” and “You mean I these people don’t come with the place?”) is beneath you.

    I didn’t subscribe to Democrat Underground, this is Ricochet.com and I understand you loathe Trump, but please try to do it in a responsible way and don’t stoop to leftist tropes.
