How does Russian state TV know that President Trump personally directed any U.S. official to not attend the Ukrainian presidents inauguration?
And why is the President directing anyone to not attend the inauguration of an ALLY?!?

Oh my, the Russians weren't lying. They knew what was taking place behind-the-scenes. The #WhistleblowerComplaint revealed that Trump personally instructed Pence not to attend the inauguration.

#Russia's state TV shamelessly lies that Rudy Giuliani was going to travel to #Ukraine for President-elect Volodymyr Zelensky's inauguration, but Trump personally directed him & any other official U.S. representatives not to attend the inauguration.
So many lies, so little time.

I think it was abe lincoln who was quoted as saying: "No one has a good enough memory to be a good liar"
or was it: "It is better to be thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt".........
Both quotes are relevant.......

I had to do a double take. I could totally picture Hannity, Carlson or Ingraham on that set. It sure seems like they're Russian owned propaganda too.
