Warning!!!! The NYT is hiding it's sneaky little lies buried inside short paragraphs of truth. Be aware and, as Jesus commanded, "Do not be deceived!" Just because the first sentence is true doesn't mean the second one is!! Stay vigilant when reading articles; don't be lulled into trusting the untrustworthy!!💕💕💕👵🏻
