NP but close

[Mark Kohut]

I'm sure many are so far away from the USA they hate that they seldom
listen to the ex-President, FOX NEWS,
dozens of US Representatives and Senators; or Steve Bannon, or Roger Stone
or even followed the Alex Jones
trial in which his willfully misleading disinformation harming hundreds met
its day in court.

"Disinformation is false information deliberately spread to deceive people.
It is sometimes confused with misinformation, which is false information
but is not deliberate. Disinformation is presented in the form of fake
news."


Every day you post, lowers my estimation of you, as if you care.
