The Russia Test:
Some topic about Russia always on the first page "Politics and Other Controversies".
Sometimes I think that people do it for money...

If you're going to question someone, at least get the facts right. That deal fell through before the campaign even began for the primaries.

As for the Russian thing, as you know, there is an investigation going on that should concern every American, regardless of their political affiliation. We NEED to know the truth, and this investigation is going to provide those answers, regardless of how painful those facts might be for Trump supporters to accept.

Are you willing to accept the results if it comes out it was actually the Dems that colluded? Because they absolutely did. For some reason I think you won't accept it like you don't accept the election results.

I can't stomach her anymore as she has become the left's answer to Glenn Beck circa 2009 with her hysteria and constant histrionics.

I've begun doing a test where I switch the channel to her and bet how long it will be before she mentions Russia.

Tonight I said 30 seconds. I flip the channel and she is covering Houston. I figure, "OK, this is a huge story, no way she mentions Russia tonight."

She goes to commercial break within 30 seconds and promises more on the Trump-Russia investigation.

You just can't make this **** up.

I don't think you really watched her because she spent several minutes during the opening discussing the flooding issues in Houston going back to 1929. She went into details of why they built the dams far from the city, the creation of the water control board and over development. She did spend time on Trump and the latest with Trump Towers in Moscow that is understandable, but that was later in the show.


To be fair I think she needs to reduce her coverage of Trump but he seems to stir the pot just when things seem quiet. I still enjoy her show because of the background and research, I don't know any one else that fits that niche short of some PBS shows.
