The story has become that there's a national emergency, but not at the border. That's because President Trump talked about issuing an EO to start the border wall instead of doing it. I'm disappointed. This makes it look like the shutdown was for no reason, for something that could wait.

And, sure enough. Now there's another bogus "Russia" distraction. Besides that Romney in DC is inspiration to purge the Republican Party of conservatives.

It isn't "three dimensional chess" that the border wall should've been started by EO, at the very latest when DC pols took this long weekend. It isn't even follow the dots.

When has the BSM ever printed the real story about anything?

No, they will never report the truth. They report that most illegal immigrants come by air and overstay their visas and this “crisis” is being compounded by the fact that furloughed TSA agents and Coast Guard have opened up our airports and waterways to increased drug trafficking and worse. And not for nothing, but people cannot apply for refugee status or asylum at a US embassy in their country. Embassies and consulates do not process those requests. You MUST be at the border or already in the country to request asylum/refugee status.

The President IS the humanitarian crisis here per the MSM.

That is what is being broadcast 24/7, plus the sob stories.

A couple of weeks ago, someone here on FR led me to https://www.whatfinger.com/
It is a site dedicated to “The Relentless Pursuit of Creating The Greatest Aggregate Link News Site On Earth”. I have not looked at Drudge ever since. It is conservative, quick to load, and mostly current. In my view, Drudge will soon join Kodak, New Coke, Edsel, and buggy whips in the dustbin of history. It has no mandatory refresh, and opens in a new tab, making it much quicker and easier to use.

MATT DRUDGE is a bend over boy,

He can be bribed or extorted.

This is a measure of just how cranked up the Left really is against President Trump. They actually got to MATT DRUDGE.

I do not care if our president continues the shut down right into November of 2020. Our economy is booming and our furloughed federal workers can seek employment elsewhere.The smart ones are doing that right now. Say goodbye to airport TSA,the airlines can do their own security, and welcome the further expansion of US military deployment along our Southern Border.

I saw that Drudge headline today, as well.

If anyone had any doubts he’s gone over to the other side - here you go.
Tabloid “journalism” at its worst and ALWAYS meant to paint President Trump in the worst possible light.

Why he’s thrown away his target audience of so many years is beyond me.

Matt Drudge has gone over to the dark, wild side. He has taken to posting radical headlines...but, when you read the story behind his headlines...there is zero there. Matt Drudge is done as a reliable news and information source. I have stopped reading him ages ago. Poor lad is not with it and is severely, unbalanced!!!

click through and what do you find? A story from several fake journalists at the fake Washington Post
What is fake is not that the Washington Post is a newspaper, and not that the people who write stories for it are journalists.

What is fake is the conceit that people cannot be journalists unless they agree with the politics of the Washington Post’s journalists. But don’t try to tell them that - if you do, you will be told that you are “not a journalist, not objective.”

Well, guess what! Nobody can be certain of their own objectivity. Meaning, that the people who say that someone else isn’t objective are almost certainly right - but their insinuation that they themselves are objective is even more likely to be wrong.

People aren’t interested in writing about things about which they have no opinion, and everyone thinks that their own opinions are right - or they wouldn’t be their opinions. Seriously attempting to be objective means scrutinizing your own opinions from the perspective that it is all too likely that where you stands is strongly influenced by where you sit. This is not natural to anyone, but to seriously attempt objectivity you have to strive to make yourself do it.

Forming a mutual admiration society which will claim objectivity for you, while demanding that you do the same for them, is a great way to do a head-fake towards objectivity, but is not a serious effort at the real thing. And that is what we get from any journalist who is not being battered incessantly by claims from the mutual admiration society that they are not a journalist.

Someone sewed the media’s lips to democrat butt years ago...

So no, honest reporting is NOT going to happen.

The only cure for fake news is to ignore it. If I see that a story is from the AP, I won’t read it. There’s no point in absorbing propaganda.

Quit using Drudge a long time ago. Prefer Whatfinger and Liberty Daily.

Rats better give in soon - most of the affected people are rat voters.
