What I learned from fox in 20 minutes

After bombshells yesterday

1. Illegal aliens kill beautiful people
2. Manafort convicted has nothing to do wirh trump
3. Cohen can not be trusted and was manipulated into his plea deal
4. Campaign finance violations are a very gray area and hard to prove

5. Illegal immigrants can be extremely violent



Not really a surprise at all but watching them twist and turn facts is kinda fun.

They are like the tentacles of a Hydra, one head is cut off two or three grow in its place. Globally when Fox goes there are several replacements waiting some of them Russian.

who killed his pregnant wife and two young daughters?

They did note that the undocumented migrant worker was employed by a noted Iowan Republican. For the last 4-7 years.

and the residents of my small town are all over Facebook with their "build the wall" and "if I see an illegal, I'm making sure he never hurts anyone" rhetoric. Veiled threats all over the place and they get really, really angry if it is pointed out that people are killed by US citizens far more often than those here without documentation.

I feel for the family of that young woman, but there are other missing young women (and young men) who no one really cares about because they aren't as "pretty" or quite as white. Pointing out the man who killed the wife and young daughters gets the "mental illness, we should have sympathy for him" response.

Oh, I SO want to move to a better, less hate-filled place.

They are a huge part of what is/has destroyed America. I find nothing fun in that. Pure evil is not fun.
