    It is of course perfectly appropriate for the Government to support and even subsidize worthy citizens of proper heritage who have been defrauded by the actions of the Rothschilds and their proxies.

    The problem is money going to those others.There is no reason for them to be receiving anything.

    Fox is anti-news.

    https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2019/4/23/18512347/mueller-report-polling-fox-news-trump

    "But a new HuffPost/YouGov poll finds that 83 percent of respondents who got their information about the report from Fox News think it clears Trump.

    The HuffPost/YouGov poll — conducted last Thursday and Friday, the first two days following the Mueller report’s release on Thursday morning — provides a stark illustration of the effective job Fox News does protecting a president with whom the network has a symbiotic relationship."

    I think everybody who is not a Trump voter realizes that Fox is Republican propaganda, not news. Although some also convince themselves that Fox is not unique, that MSNBC or CNN or whatever is the left's Fox, and that is a very large stretch. But a different subject.

    2. So did Trump.

    I have a neighbor who watches Fox News every night. Loudly. I believe he's hard of hearing because you can hear his TV, outside, at least 50 feet away, I am excited that I'm potentially moving soon.

    That said, if I was half as dumb and vapid as these people I'd make a fortune.

    I would add that chyron thing is wrong.
    The New York Times did not "release" 10 years of Trump's taxes.
    They wrote an article discussing 10 years of Trump's taxes.

    If there was a release of the actual taxes, I do not see it.

    We lived next door to people like that. The TV itself wasn't that loud, but the woman would occasionally scream at her TV. Well, usually at the latest Obama abomination as depicted by Fox News. At least a couple nights a week between 9 and 11, we'd hear her.

    I'm sure my neighbors complain about me screaming at the TV too. I had to live through the Daniel Woolard era at DC United.

    Every night, 9-11, Fox News. Right next to my damn bedroom where his living room is. I have to hear the yelling.

    At least said neighbor isn't watching porn anymore. First night that happened I walked to the bar.

    I wonder if they have autocorrect on their chyron machine. Ill bet it is supposed to say 'mixed reactions to farm policy'. It was installed originally to change 'R' to 'D'. on dead hooker stories.

    Fox - "Democrats have always supported terrorists over American warfighters."

    Libertarians - "We hate warmongering. We caucus with Repubicans because the Dems are no better."

    Sure fellas. You go with that.

    I presume you refer to politicians here. It's more like "hey, at least we can carve out an anti-war niche over here while avoiding a whole lot of other non FP-related garbage, and still reach out to the three or four serious anti-war Dems".

    I wonder what Fox thinks of this guy.

    https://taskandpurpose.com/krulak-statement-trump-warcrimes

    "If President Trump follows through on reports that he will mark Memorial Day by pardoning individuals accused or convicted of war crimes, he will betray these ideals and undermine decades of precedent in American military justice that has contributed to making our country's fighting forces the envy of the world," said {Charles} Krulak, who served in the Marine Corps for more than three decades before retiring in 1999 as the 31st Commandant.

    Krulak, a two-time Purple Heart recipient and son of legendary Lt. Gen. Victor "Brute" Krulak, went on to say that "disregard for the law undermines our national security," and it would negatively impact combat effectiveness, increase the risk to U.S. troops, and provide a propaganda boon to extremists.

    The retired general's statement came in response to recent reporting over the weekend that Trump was considering the possibility of issuing pardons on Memorial Day to Navy SEAL Chief Edward Gallagherand Special Forces Maj. Matthew Golsteyn — both of which are currently undergoing court-martial proceedings on separate war crimes charges — as well as a group of Marine scout snipers who were accused of urinating on the bodies of Taliban corpses in 2011.


    Fox also seems to be neglecting that the trials are not set in The Hague, but in American military tribunals.
