Just deranged: she’s implying that Biden’s National Security Advisor is somehow fabricating Russia’s troop buildup as some sort of distraction tactic? They live in such an insane conspiracist world that every event is viewed through that funhouse mirror.

Fox truly lives in an alternate universe where if you even peak out a little, you see a whole different world.

I detest Fawks (I refuse to spell it correctly) I think more than I detest Trumpty Dumpty because they helped bring him to power and keep him there. They remind me somewhat of William Randolph Hearst in his "yellow journalism" days. Hearst's "yellow journalism" didn't last forever. They gives me the hope that Fawks doesn't either. Maybe not in my lifetime, but in the future. Maybe things change after Rupert kicks the bucket.

millions and millions of people's lives. I knew evil existed in Germany with the Nazis but it always deeply puzzled me how it could have happened. Now, I'm watching it happen in my own country, right before my eyes and I STILL don't understand how it can be happening. Evil really does exist.

The US would have never fought in Europe during WWII. FOX would have totally normalized Hitler as someone just pursuing traditional conservative values.

Their coverage of the Russia Ukraine situation is wholly un-democratic and treasonous in their attempts to subvert the President and NATO. They are the epitome of a Fifth Column supporting Comrade Vlad and his sinister oligarchs.

on financial shows, was a crazed, right wing loon in her politics?

Neither is a good moniker but even the sexist Money Honey nickname is not as bad as being a winger lunatic.

"This whole Russia thing is just Biden covering up for his Afghanistan fiasco"

I asked how he got Putin to send 150k troops to the Ukraine border. He explained that, no, Biden sent 5000 troops. I explained I knew that but he sent them to NATO countries because Putin sent 150k troops to Ukraine and Belarus.

"Well, that's because Biden is weak".

"Okay, but that doesn't explain how Biden orchestrated all of this."

He didn't have an answer for that.

They expose the the problems of a country based on honor and integrity. That is a glaring weakness of our free society and jeopardizes national security.
