Fox"news" paste-eater Pete Doocy doesn't ask questions, he tells lies with a vocally inflected ? at the end of the lie. 1) to sell the lie 2) to hide & bury some other truth with the lie & to 3) introduce Leavitt's follow-up lying

peace prize envy, resentments, & cowardice has eaten Donald's mind
DOOCY: If Trump launches a bigger military campaign in the Caribbean, is he jeopardizing a Nobel Peace Prize?

LEAVITT: The president has proven over the past year that he's more than worthy of the Nobel Peace Prize. He's solved 9 conflicts

It’s been two weeks since ICE took Yuanxin Zheng from his father. He is six years old. He’s still not home. This has to end.

The passage of the harmful “Big Beautiful Bill” in July was disastrous for families. Allowing federal ACA premium tax credits to end isn’t an accident; it’s a policy choice.

Message your senator and representatives and demand they extend the ACA credits: https://bit.ly/4iW6HAs

For months, the Trump Administration has sought to deny Kilmar Ábrego Garcia his rights to due process and fair treatment by our justice system.

Today’s ruling by Judge Xinis – requiring the government to immediately release him – is a forceful stand for our Constitution and all of our rights.
Federal judge orders Kilmar Abrego García’s ‘immediate release’
U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis said the government could not indefinitely detain Abrego, a 30-year-old immigrant from El Salvador who is fighting his deportation.

Trump tweets and he does rallies.

And not a single sentence is the truth.

He happily lies and lies to his biggest supporters.

Then he goes back to his billionaires and laughs.

What makes their tactics any different from criminals? Criminals also don’t uphold the law and respect rights. Indeed,it is altogether possible that these are the worst and most dangerous people in our society. Other criminals tend to assault people, these maskers kidnap, imprison & disappear people
