Thanks for mentioning this again, stylin:

Everybody else:

Please make note of this:

Americas Last Line of Defense CLAIMS to be a parody, satire, and tomfoolery site. It's a site that puts out deliberately misleading stories, and tries to fool conservatives into spreading them.

Here are a few of their headlines:

Chrissy Teigen Was Just Fired from Mega Modeling Firm For Disrespecting Trump

Clinton Foundation Deploys Secret Army Against Trump’s Troops

Portland Votes to Defund Police

Every time anyone puts a story out there without verifying it, they're doing exactly what the site wants.

Just another note:

Twitter allows accounts to deceptively impersonate other accounts. Just saw one with the screen name "Donald J. Trump" and the @ is donalcljtrump. It also uses President Trump's twitter image. I'd suggest not retweeting these sites, as they are impersonating, not satirizing. They can do damage by making outrageous tweets, but even if the tweets are relatively benign, they are still a method of spreading false information.
