WASHINGTON—Trump’s federal agents raid Rep. Ilhan Omar’s home over decades-old “immigration paperwork” her father filled out when she was a kid.

Trump denied that he would undermine NATO, help Putin, or weaken the United States in the face of feudal Russia.

Ten years later, Trump has done everything Hillary Clinton warned us about.

Hillary Clinton wasn't just right. She was practically a prophet.

Trump wants a race war. Minnesotans won’t take the bait.
We love our Somali neighbors.

Trump announced a "massive" potash deal with Belarus. Lukashenko then immediately came out and said Trump is making it all up and Belarus can't help him. Trump is desperate and pathetic.

Important illustration of the step-by-step process used to "launder" and legitimize information by stripping out relevant details (like Hamas' child & teenage fighters) to present the lie that Israel is needlessly killing innocent civilian children.

That changes the entire context.

🚨 HOLY SMOKES! Ben Meiselas just UNLOADED on Trump over his fake Ukraine ceasefire announcement.

“We're run by a sex predator, lunatic, a felon, a bankrupter, a fraud…”

“Every freaking thing out of the guy is a fraud and a lie.”

And Ben isn't letting corporate media off the hook either.
