Happy? More like inured.

The question is: How long can Trump take on all of the alligators while still making progress on pumping out the swamp (the actual drain has yet to be reveled).

Being partially Galt, I'm working to live out my remaining days in peace from gov't interactions. Trump could help; the GOPee? - not so much.

Anyone remember the support we had at Chik Fil A? Why don’t we use that support and boycott an advertiser at the Times? Or maybe not the Times so much as a small liberal station that carries NPR? Boycott their main sponsor. I bet NPR will be off the station within a month.

Wash, rinse and repeat.

That paper is the worst piece of crap in a world swimming in manure! Anybody see that ex-restaurant critic’s op ed about Hillary running for mayor of NYC so he can see her wreck havoc on Trump and his family?! This after an op ed piece a couple of weeks ago writing that he was going to reach out to Americans in the heartland to understand T’s victory! That was short-lived. Interestly, the comments after today op ed was a huge push back against his vicious little “satire.” Apparently, there are NYers who want to Clintons to just go away.

...New York Times...attacks Breitbart News...and encourages an effort to “destroy” the company by appealing directly to advertisers not to support the website.

Okay, fine. Might there be a comprehensive listing of the advertisers in the nyt?

Inquiring minds would like to know.

freedom of the press?
N.Y. Times, Washington Post, L.A. Times , Etc. do not like their agenda lines to be ridiculed or proven false.
I read Breitbart daily and it gives me info that is usable, not fake.

I stopped clicking on Breitbart when they barred me from commenting, and would not reply to repeated requests to tell me why.

Actually, this is rather laughable. The NYT is telling it’s few remaining readers to do to Breitbart what conservatives (like FReepers) have been telling each other to do to the NYT. They are kind of slow to catch on. And not very original.

Because it was in the NYT, this tells me that they are afraid because Breitbart is publishing the truth and we can’t have any of that now, can we?

(Personally, I find the Breitbart content excellent, but the site itself is very annoying. I will have to hold my nose and give them a few hits today, just to irritate the NYT and their ilk. PLEASE, please, Breitbart, get rid of the popups and other annoyances and you would have me as a frequent reader.)

The truth is always the last option ever considered by liberals. They occupy a world of fantasy narrative construct, where they alone are good and possess virtue and those who oppose or even question their current narrative are “evil deniers”, worthy only of contempt! Reality and truth are to be avoided, censored, and outlawed if possible. The more true truth is (especially God’s Bible Truth), the more it is to be avoided and maligned! This reality of being reality “deniers” leads them into a permanent anger and tantrum mindset. It not “fair” reality doesn’t conform to their fantasy demands! There is no way to reason with them, (reason is bigotry) so they must be vanquished!

The NYTimes pioneered fake news when it ran as news, a fictionalized series by Walter Duranty. The Times also ran as news, anther fictionalized piece by Jason Blair. At least the inventor of #FakeNews has weighed in on organizations they think are trying to remake fake news.
