The Russian media is probably more trustworthy than ours.

The Russian media is controlled by the Russian government. It's not a free press in any sense. That you trust the Russian government over independent journalists in the United States speaks to what you prefer to believe, not to any objective assessment of journalistic credibility.

I think it's time for the patriotic Americans to take to the streets and launch a national strike and shut down everything until Trump, his entire cabinet, and all of his appointees resign ... and a special prosecutor is appointed along with the new administration of President Orrin Hatch, Speaker Charlie Dent, and Senate Coalition Leader Joe Manchin.

Speaking of hyperbole Guess again.

Didn't you grasp what happened? The Russian media (TASS) covered the event. The American people only saw any reporting of the event through the RUSSIAN media. Putin must be having a laughing fit he made Trump and the whole country look like idiots. Russia is playing us like a fiddle and Trump and his supporters are apparently too dumb to realize that - or to care.

That's a knee-slapper there Comrade. Have a read in the article below about how Putin dismantled the free press in Russia after he came to power. The Russian government took over over all television stations and cracked down on any independent media outlets.

So you think that is being more trustworthy? Please explain your logic behind that.

Russian government was laughing it's heads off as it live tweeted from the Oval Office the day after getting Comey fired. They must really have the goods on Trump.
