So again - what did the Murdoch's "see" that they could get people excited about. I hate Fox News and I think it should be a continuous chyron at the bottom the screen when Lara, Tucker and Sean are on stating "This is NOT news this is opinion only".īut like Mitch McConell I have to grudgingly give them credit for playing the long game which ONLY a clear +4 Dem majority in the Senate could over come.

Facebook, Twitter, just watching the news?”īrennwald, after consulting with Sibick, said that his client’s response surprised him. “He came here, fired up about a stolen election,” Jackson said. The January 6 rioter who assaulted police officer Michael Fanone was sent into a manic fury by disinformation that he.
