A few months ago, ICE hired me
I didn't sign and submit any paperwork. I almost certainly failed the drug test. I'm real outspoken about my opposition to the Trump administration, and I am extremely googlable
And yet, there it was, in plain English. "Welcome to ICE!"

Journalisten moeten ‘radically truthfull‘ worden. Oók in NL. Een lezenswaardige lijst met ‘do’s’, zoals:
- Let no lie reach the audience unchallenged
- Get the fact check as close to the lie as possible.
- Interrupt aggressively.
- Boot people off the air if they repeatedly lie.
En nog veel meer.

My Stop the Presses newsletter calls for more aggressive action by the media to be "radically truthful" and defeat the liars:
/ Correct *every* lie uttered on your platform.
/ Put Trump's remarks on tape delay for proper fact checks.
/ Cut off liars in mid-interview and ban them from your airwaves.
/ Correct *every* lie uttered on your platform.

How to build a radically truthful news outlet
The old ways don’t work. Time to declare war on the liars.
