Sounds like Fake News to me.


Your odds are good on that guess.

Washington Post is mostly Fake News.

MSM deception is so predictable. First you publish a “journalistic report” with no mention of a source. Once it’s out, it’s out. Secondly, the next day you apologize for the erroneous reporting. No consequences whatsoever, and mission accomplished.

A naive question: why would we take Islamic refugees from Australia. Australia must have let them pour in and now it feels overrun.

Odd that the WAPO requires a money subscription to access and read their seditious and Fake News.

Can’t imagine who it would be that agrees to that.

They have great headlines though, and it burns the clock for those who refute everything the Post has written.

See the pattern, here? They’re pulling a Trump in reverse. Trump moves through so fast, the media can’t cover it adequately. Media prints crap so rapidly it takes time to refute it.

There was a picture of him talking on the phone, but he could have been talking to anyone...and that was one of my first questions...

Remember yesterday when it was said that Trump said something about ‘Hombres’ at the border...I read a comment that was fake news also...

I am very careful about all these stories, half of them are fake news because the media isn't being treated with ‘kid gloves’ anymore and the Administration has frozen CNN out. period.

“President Trump blasted Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull over a refu­gee agreement and boasted about the magnitude of his electoral college win, according to senior U.S. officials briefed on the Saturday exchange.”

And what are the names of these “senior U.S. officials” ?

No. They want Sharia in western countries when they had it in their countries of origin.

Still plenty of Obama people left in administration, sabotaging things. Time for a serious purge.

Isn’t Turnbull a Liberal? All deals cut by the Kenyan in his waning days should automatically be null and void.

So they say this was said. Here’s to Trump finding the “leakers” and cleaning them out. Administratively this is what is happening in the first two weeks of office. They are in place— let’s get them out.

Otherwise, it is best to manipulate the “fake news” by using the truth (in the exception of true negotiation). Note that the Aussies and the US disavow this completely— as they would. So this is.... nothing. Keep playing them Mr. President.

I think the more likely scenario is that 'journalists' use unnamed source to make shit up. In other words, unnamed sources are used give credibility to a narrative they already planned to say.

Any story with unnamed sources is likely to be fake news, especially from the WashPo.

Better question— did we stop the $$MMillions that obamaomau sent to Hamas... on the morning of Mr. Trump’s inauguration.

Trump has to fire a lot of leakers, and a lot of 5th column fedgov check collectors in many agencies. Loyalty oath time, and polygraph time. Then... fire them for cause, and no pension.

Along the way— pick up what FDR said— “no government employee should be allowed to join or form a union— they are civil servants”. There’s a start.

So you are saying that this might be “fake news”? SHOCKED, I am. Good that John McCain’s getting himself all in the middle of this, now, right? (/s)

A technique of the “black hats” in our domestic/foreign intel, still in place— and who need to be weeded out and convicted— is to PLANT a story, just like they have here.

Key is to chum the water and let the morons bite and repeat the manufactured tale that is not their own creation— that gets em. It’s like fishing.... you need effective lures.

Australia thinks she can dictate our immigration policies - I guess they know better now - John McCain offered his shoulder for them to cry on - he’s still working hard to epitomize “RINO”...
