Three of Fox News’s most popular TV actors (Ingraham, Hannity, Kilmeade) directly texted the White House chief of staff believing they were empowered to immediately change the behavior of the president of the United States. Tell me more about the liberal elite media.

Pentagon's spokeswoman Sabrina Singh just said if Ukraine moves on Crimea, the US would support. "That includes an operation in Crimea. That is a sovereign part of their country and they have every right to take that back." Not a new stance from DOD, but a firm restatement.

I see lots of questions, so I'll just add that every administration has tried to or threatened to fuck with Stripes, cut its budget. The political press secretaries can't stand they can't control it's content and turn it into a pro-White House rag.

It’s stunning the Trump administration hid the details of the deal they signed until after it was signed basically. Zero press conferences in Washington. After 18 years, Trump just committed to a total withdrawal by next April. No WH announcement. No Pentagon briefing.

Unbelievable. The correct question to this was a simple: “no, of course not, don’t be absurd, we’re not handing over our former ambassador to Vladimir Freakin Putin, over my dead body” Instead, Trump’s team: We’re considering it.
