The PresPressSec is holding a press conference right now, and he's doing something never done before: He has big screens set up in the press room, and in addition to people in the room he's calling on distant sites via Skype. So far, he seems to be calling on talking heads at Fox affiliates. Another step to hell.
 
Another distant "correspondent" asked when D. Trump is going to return America's parklands to "the people."
 
How Long until Trump sets up a official Ministry of Propaganda and Public Enlightenment?

It looks like he already has. The next distant "correspondent," hailing from West Virginia, asked when PresTrump will eliminate clean-air regulations and expand the coal industry.
 
Given how so many of the "correspondents" seem to be nutcases, I doubt this experiment will be repeated.

Sadly I think your FTFY will be the case.

Today I listened as coworkers nearby started taking politics. Let's just say that they approve of Trump and what he has done so far. 75% of what they said is also factually wrong. It's depressing that in the age of information so many are willfully ignorant.

He made the point that the U.S. owns many millions of acres of land, especially in the West, that he thinks should be "returned" to private hands. He also asked when Trump was going to permit logging in national forests to resume.

That was the reason the house got rid of the idea that ecconomic impact and value should be assessed before selling such lands. Makes them easier to go the Russia route of looting the possessions of the government.

I welcome our kleptocratic overlords.

By taking moves that increase the cost of alternative energy and it's a win-win for OPEC/Exxon/Putin/Tillerson/Trump. Maybe an OPEC under the radar deal had more to do with leaving Saudi Arabia and the UAE off the travel ban list than simply the fact Trump has investments in those countries.

And even though Iran and Iraq are members of OPEC, maybe Saudi Arabia has something in mind for Iran with whom they are fighting proxy wars with in Yemen. Not sure where Iraq stands in the SA minds at the moment.

Lots to review here: Yemen Isn’t Just a Proxy War Between Saudi Arabia and Iran

Can you provide any examples of said factually wrong stuff?
