Do you actually believe in your heart of hearts that either the media or the Government would have the audacity to lie to the public do you?

The government agencies are politicized and weaponized IRS, FEC, dept of labor with fake unemployment numbers, FCC, EPA so why would NOAA not be?
The media and FED are also politicized . All in favor of the democrats/socialism.

Drudge report today said NOAA and media probably lied about cat 4 threat to Florida

I believe that they did also. And I believe that they were intentionally hyping it up.

“St. Augustine may be one of the hardest hit areas by Hurricane Matthew.

The powerful storm has pushed water into much of the historic downtown area.”

I was listening to Rush this afternoon when the news was updated. The news person on site somewhere in Florida made the mistake of interviewing a local resident.

How’s everything holding up he asked? Resident responded, it’s not been bad at all. I’d call it a half hurricane. You could feel the disappointment in the reporters voice.

In the South it’s called “water pipe”, because it is so often used as water pipe.
