Like back in the good old days when people believed if it was in the paper than it had to be true.

- ISIS almost wiped out
- lowest unemployment in 44 years
- Trump bump market skyrocket jump
- Illegal immigration down 70%
95%, huh?

Lay your bull**** on me.

I stopped believing them when we stopped watching the news last year and saw how they "reported" the news. I'm still stick of them because they are still twisting and inputting their opinions way too much. Turning the news off last year during the election time was honestly one of the best things I could have done for myself and the kids. Still is.

I accept most of what I read or hear from what I consider to be mainstream media and I'm done with your lies.

That is the truth. Every freaking story about Trump is a negative one. Meanwhile for 8 years they buried anything about Obama that didn't fit the agenda. Sickening.


Now as for the above items...


Trump gets a lot of credit for ISIS being on the run, as he removed the Obama era shackles of 'playing nice' with ISIS -- example, not bombing their oil convoys because the driver might get killed. It's no holds barred right now which is the way it should have been all along, there's no reasoning with those animals.


Lowest unemployment in 44 years: not giving Trump the credit here, the numbers are being falsified, just as they were under Obama. The economy is doing reasonably well now, just as it was under the previous president.


Stock Market: Trump get some credit here but it remains to be seen if a market correction is in the cards.


Illegal Immigration down 70%: Where did you get this number from? It is certainly possible as I'm sure we are doing a lot more enforcement activities than prior. If number is true, Trump gets full credit as he was the only candidate willing to do anything about the issue.

I don't even watch any of them, except to occasionally check to see what kind of lies they are spreading.

CNN, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, NBC, the Washington Post, NYT, and a few others, are all like a sewer, spewing effluence everywhere, polluting the airwaves with their crap.

I look to alternative media for news, the only reason I pay attention to MSM is to see what agenda they are pushing, its become fairly easy to recognize pretty quickly, Its almost comical to me, that they engage in this type of mass conditioning.

Something I think people do not get, the press today is not the press of the past, and I do not think they should be entitled to the same rights and privileges anymore, all of the MSM is owned and controlled by 6 private corporations, that should be a huge red flag to everyone, they can literally control what is news and what is not...that is extremely powerful.
