When will the AP mockers address the outright lies of Obama? Or his repeated demonstrations of hatred for America’s heritage?

He also made an assertion that is as dubious as it was provocative: that the Iranian missiles fired by Tehran at two military bases hosting U.S. forces in Iraq were paid for by money “made available” to Iran by the Obama administration.

Ha haaaa! I was wondering how long it would take for the butthurt to settle in.

Let’s see, a 150 billion of Iran’s assets was frozen, and Obama unfroze then. In other words, Obama gave them 150 billion.

“Fact checking” would involve presenting facts. They are just saying “no it isn’t” to everything.

Shameless liars at AP

Obama unfroze seized assets and gave them to the Iran’s Mullahs. President Trump said nothing about a payout form the US Treasury.

He said “funds provided by the perilous Administration” which is a statement of fact the shameless liars in the Fake New are desperately trying to obfuscate

Obama personally made sure a pallet of cash arrived in Iran just before he left office. Used to purchase weapons no doubt.

I noticed that the writer makes claims without providing any evidence.

Two ways the media repackages the same old bias and lies it tells:

1) Slap the words “fact” and “check” in front of any assertion. Really, it’s the same assertion they would make any way but with “fact check” slapped in front of it, you just know someone has really looked into this!!! What the AP and the others don’t tell you? The “someone” is their newsroom quoting the same ole anonymous sources.

Fact check: the moon is made of cheese!!!

2) “Debunked” as a tool for establishing new facts. This comprises assembling a panel of like minded “experts” who all deal with an inconvenient fact by agreeing with each other that said fact has been disproven or isn’t so. Thereafter, since they have all agreed with themselves said inconvenient fact is said to be “debunked.”

“Trump clinging to the debunked theory that his campaign was spied on.”
