- Tommy Christopher has us counting on our fingers as a Fox News personality insists that mainstream media lied about the Ukraine telephone summary. Reports told of multiple references to Joe Biden, but, says Catherine Herridge, there were not multiple references: only a handful, perhaps just three. Let’s see. I used to have multiple fingers. Now I have just a couple of handsful. Or handfuls, depending on whether you use the Merriam-Webster dictionary.

“I don’t know how much of the 16 year old Thunberg’s vision is indoctrinated ignorance and how much is her actual conviction. I do know one thing. Her utopian vision would be disastrous for human life on Earth.” – An Old Man Who Dislikes Reality So He Uses His Feelings and “Common Sense” to Substitute His Own
