We’ve grown used to the media’s joining with the Democrats to attack every move by the President, but it is still something to watch the lies and distortions about the war in Iran where the press smears the troops in the middle of battle. Using the latest technology and working closely with the IDF and IAF, our military has achieved the most remarkable, unpredicted achievements in a matter of days.

What should be done with the Seditious Press & Others?
Sedition:
... conduct tending to treason, but without an overt act; excitement of discontent against the government, or resistance to lawful authority.
The media whines about high gas prices that Trump caused with the war in Iran but not concerned with the other option a nuclear bombs on a us.
The media being the media it never changes.
