You'd think this "journalist" is implying that people are going around calling reporters "piggy" and "fake news" (and worse) when the reporter asks a question they don't like. She is showcasing these very people on this sham (MAGA Theatre of the Ignorant) show bec she is one of them. #MAGAIsADisease

During former special counsel Jack Smith's testimony before the HJC, Chair Jordan was reminded he is on record for calling Trump the morning of J6.
Jordan was also, one of the 147 R's who voted to overturn the 2020 election.

It's common knowledge that Putin despises the West, considering it weak.
But is he really so wrong, openly calling Western politicians "pigs", declaring revenge for the Cold War and the collapse of the USSR, which he wants to restore - and hearing endless "negotiations" in response?
