Well said. Leftists always start with a false premise, never having to prove it.

“In a “news report” on Friday, A(ll)B(ull)C(rap) reported that Pres. Trump called for shuttering USAID, “alleging, without evidence,” that the agency is spending money fraudulently.” In fact, A(ll)B(ull)C(rap)’s report was without evidence, inasmuch as Pres. Trump had proof positive of massive transfers of money by the agency without earmarked congressional authorization for same.”

Exactly.

The Right and Patriots must start refuting Lying Leftist premises that go all the way back to FDR and Teddy Roosevelt.

ABC needs to be forced to provide equal time for their political opposition. It is insane that we allow one political party to control mass media.

Trump’s talked about putting the licenses up for bid. I don’t believe any of the networks are paying much at all but the affiliates are. He’s also talked about taking over the West Wing press room as its by tradition, not law that a press group manages it. His administration took over a couple of press room seats and has encouraged 400 news agencies that were banned by Biden to reapply for WH creditentials.

“ABC is part of the traitorous Enemedia.”

CBS and NBC are just as bad.

The left KNOWS their side will not consume media that they do not like.

Thisis why Trump must make a prime time address to chronicle ALL the misdeeds the federal government was doing. Have Glenn Beck's people produce it. Make it flashy. Have other people narrate/host. Expose it ALL.

Use the emergency takeover powers Obama created to put this on every channel on TV

The headline is misinformation itself. Trump isn’t killing USAID. He’s moving the administration to within the State Department. The department best equipped to understand the national interest in the disbursement of money to foreign countries and interests.

Appointed officials that were given their position as a result of nomination by the President and confirmation by the Senate, serve at the pleasure of the President.

Even though they are not serving under the President that appointed them to office.

This President is none too pleased with the performance of many of these appointed officials. And the President IS the Chief Executive, after all.

Any broadcaster that promotes a clear lie should have their license revoked.

👍 👍

“Use the emergency takeover powers Obama created to put this on every channel on TV”

That’s what he should do because the nets will not give him the air time. Every Network gave Biden 4 prime time addresses in the 6 months leading up to the election

“...Revoke their broadcast license. Any broadcaster that promotes a clear lie should have their license revoked....”

I certainly agree wity ya, but those days are long gone.
There used to be a law on the books that they had to tell the truth in good faith.
I believe it was in 2015 that their mighty messiah god, odongo, got that law repealed giving them free reign to lie their sweet lil’ arses off. By repealing it, odongo turn the MSM into a form of PRAVDA controlled by the communist left.... They’ve been lyin’ ever since....

I am reminded of Bill and Hillary Clinton teaching the public on the art of parsing words. Bill’s explanation of what “is” is was mind blowing. Then there was Hillary explaining how one “wiped a hard drive” with a piece of cloth.

To Liberals words like “proof of fraud” take on a special meaning that the rest of us just don’t understand.

Don’t you remember when the liberals kept saying that there was no “proof” of election fraud because there was not a single court case where fraud was proven, even though most of the cases were dismissed for lack of standing or other technicalities before sworn testimony had been entered.

Even though that is lots of fraud that has been exposed.....”proof of fraud” is in the eye (or parsing of words) of the beholder.
