Mueller gave us one angle: Charge them with conspiracy to defraud the United States.

That's not the problem. The problem is that YOU can't.

After you watch what Sean has to say, please tell us if you will continue to watch news outlets which have betrayed and used you.

Stop watching network news and visiting on-line media sites.
That doesn't make any difference. The programmable people will still be watching them.

You're right it isn't enough but in a society with somewhat free speech (except for the ridiculous concept of hate speech) all we can do is educate ourselves to ignore 95% of the Media that does lie. CNN, NBC/MSNBC (Comcast), Disney/ABC, CBS, PBS, NYT, Washpo, AP, Reuters, Facebook, Google, Twitter, and many others are glaring examples of the Leftist controlled Media. Yes, they lie. Turn them off.

His lying is frequent but inconsequential. It's just self-aggrandizement; it's not part of a systematic strategy to warp the voters' moral perspective and their understanding of the world around them.

Yep, only the left leaning media lie.

So pathetic. Even when they tell the truth it becomes a lie to the right if it shows Trump in a bad light. I have seen the MSM cover Trump's tweets word for word and still be called a lie.
