Any administration whose message is "don't trust the media, only believe what we tell you" should be terrifying to anyone regardless of political affiliation or beliefs. That should be North Korea, not the USA. The fact that there are people who seem to have no issue with that is scarier than Trump being in the WH.

Fake Presidency!
Yep, the media has had their fill. When the hosts of Morning Joe turn against the GOP, you know the shit's hit the fan.

My wife and I both agreed the press conference was an embarrassing trainwreck.
In other news, she now admits she has the hots for CNN's Jim Acosta...

Well, he at least told the truth once in this abortion of a press conference.

The reports of Trump's campaign being in contact with the Russians come from the intelligence community, not some weird conspiracy website. ------------------------------------------------ From NY Times article: Several of Mr. Trump’s associates, like Mr. Manafort, have done business in Russia. And it is not unusual for American businessmen to come in contact with foreign intelligence officials, sometimes unwittingly, in countries like Russia and Ukraine, where the spy services are deeply embedded in society. Law enforcement officials did not say to what extent the contacts might have been about business.
So, if this turns out to be all smoke, no fire, the Democrats risk pushing away moderates.

I like to toggle between Fox News and CNN after such things to see how both sides put their spin on things, but I was not expecting what I heard from Shepard Smith. He hit it on the head;

What is wrong with me? I teared up when Shep Smith stood up for himself in that clip.
edit: Being totally unfamiliar with FOX news, I assumed Smith was one of their right wing mouth pieces now breaking from the Fox party line. Just a little digging shows me that is very much not the case and the Smith is often called the most liberal anchor on Fox. Still, nice to see the "good media" show a steady interest in the issue of Trump's Russia connection.

The full press conference:
At once fascinating and utterly terrifying.
