Along with reporting what's topical and important, it's the main job of the press to FACT CHECK. It's their JOB!

The judge who sentenced Tina Peters perfectly described MAGA Republicans when he said: *"You cannot help but lie as easy as you breathe".*

[lovejazzminewilliams]

If you don't want to be fact checked, then stop lying. It's that simple.

If you have loved ones expecting damage from Milton think about Speaker Mike Johnson refusing to call back the House to work on aid for victims of Hurricane Helene. Why would you vote for the party whose presidential candidate said, "I don't care about you. I only want your vote." ?

[pho-kingsoup]

To be fair, they don't have a fact to check between them. Only lies.

[Ivanka.Putinrump]

If someone lies to you, it means they don't respect you.

[ronicamcphee]

They don't want their base to know all the lies they tell.

[Yup]

If you fact check them, they have nothing to run on.

[pattravers]

How can anyone NOT see through their B.S. !!??

He's definitely not up for it. He's never been up for it. He simply doesn't want to go to jail.

[Elmer.Mcscrotum.]

If i have create stories, i will.

Don’t call it fact checking, call it “being called out”

[tadhgflaherty]

He's obviously preparing for sentencing. His lawyer will argue that prison time would be a cruel punishment for a senile man who's suffering from cognative decline. 😉

[QuinnPrice]

Manipulators resist accountability by all means possible. Trump and Vance fit that mold.

[KesselRunner]

There is nothing new about this. This is who he has *always* been.

[nursesteve]

He who tells the truth fears no questions....he that lies fears all questions.

[C.M.]

If you didn't lie, you wouldn't have to be fact-checked

[marianka]

Claire, you are so right. Every time when I don't want to fight with my husband I avoid him :):) Fortunately, I do not "run" to be a president!!!
