Fake News: Washington Post Invents Meeting Between FCC Chair Ajit Pai and President Trump

The standard of reporting by the Media and in particular The Washington Post and NY Times is very simple.

"We report all rumors that are detrimental to Trump." The DNC and leftists start rumors and they gladly report them as from confidential and trusted inside sources.

In reality they report lies as facts and know they are probably lies when they print them or in the case of television broadcast them.

WaPo is funnier than MAD magazine and has less credibility.

Actually if you have read Mad Magazine over the years you will find their political satire based on fact. They were very funny to say the least. Boris and Natalia as arch enemies to The West in Spy vs Spy were insanely funny.

Reminded me of this clown whom was apprently being read and believed while at the New York SLIMES.

These pubs need to be shamed out of existence. I firmly believe the NYSlimes would have filed bankruptcy if it were not for it's angel Carols Slim of Mexico.

We have to reject the rationale and the purpose of supposed “independence” of many federal agencies.

1st - are they truly independent? No. They are all executive branch agencies, with MOST of them having majorities of their boards chosen by a sitting president and many with their chief executive appointed by the president.

2nd - What is the REAL purpose of the supposed “independence”? That purpose is threefold. First is to accept the pretense that the commissioners of the “independent” agencies come to their roles with NO political agendas in mind. The second is to accept the pretense that for the subject matter of the agency, they are the brightest lights on the planet (merely because they are so appointed AS IF they are). The third leg of the real purpose is to dismiss and avoid actual democratic representative government from INTERFERING what these agencies of supposed “experts” decree.

In sum, the “independent” agencies REAL purpose is a Progressive/Marxist joint purpose of government by decree of supposed “experts” and with true representative government removed from weighing in, examining, and dismissing what they decree.

I'm not completely sure I understand your point, or your dog's. But I'll take a crack at it. Born in 1939 out in the boonies on a farm. No electric until 1946. A two-holer privy was our "restroom". We never had luxuries like toilet tissue. An old Sears catalog was used; 1 page at a time. I wouldn't lower myself to use the WaPo for that. I got standards! 😊
