He truly is making them cry like babies. They look pathetic to anyone with a brain.
Today’s so-called “journalists” wrap themselves in the mantle of the First Amendment like it is holy scripture meant only for them.
To my mind a “journalist” citing the First Amendment is akin to an abortionist calling himself a humanitarian.
Snowflake. She’s a snowflake.
I can keep informed what the “other side” is doing without voluntarily putting one dime of my money in their pocket. Same with the entertainment business—not one dime. If I can step away from Brad Thor my once favorite author, the others are no problem.

The next Pope needs to fire Cupich before the sun sets on the day of his election. Follow with Dolan several days later. Like Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Make them think it’s going to continue indefinitely. Follow with O’Malley. Rinse, repeat.

Every day I find a new reason to like Trump, and calling out the lying press is one of the biggest.
The butt hurt is strong with the Compost.

Yes, yes, a thousand times yes.
the article appears to be labeled as an editorial...
Iirc, Thucydides himself admitted that he was making up the dialogue.
