"Washington Post" and "fact-checker." That's a joke, right?

For a media outlet that's sitting on and spiking the biggest government corruption story in the last century, the WAPO shouldn't be "fact checking" anyone or anything.

You didn't actually read a word of it, did you?
Biggest corruption story of the last century? lolz. Don't worry, I'm sure InfoWars is all over it.

I read it - and it pretty much meandered all over the place without ever really coming up with any answers.

Look, one of your crew claimed there are no gun laws to enforce. That’s total, unadulterated BS. There are thousands. Quibble over whether there are 20 thousand if that makes you feel better. There may be less, there may be more. But there’s a sh!tload more than zero.

No answers? It gives the claim Three Pinocchios,
Three Pinocchios is defined as:
Significant factual error and/or obvious contradictions. This gets into the realm of "mostly false." But it could include statements which are technically correct (such as based on official government data) but are so taken out of context as to be very misleading.

Well, that's not quite what he wrote, and - while I can't speak for him - I'm pretty certain he intended his remark as sarcasm.
I imagine you read it that way as well, but you're arguing about it anyhow.

Read the whole article. They don’t have an answer as to how many thousands of gun laws are out there.

Right. Because they never set out to determine how many gun laws are out there. It set out to determine whether the claim you shared here is accurate. And it's not.
It really isn't any more complicated than that.

I spent the evening with a CNN exec who I would consider pretty impartial and very well read.  His take on a lot of this stuff was enlightening.  For both sides.

He knows it’s a game and he already knows the  score.   

Maybe I shouldn’t trust him but I really like him and his girlfriend. They seem like good people.

Guy Tweets to "NEVER SURRENDER" by posting a picture of his surrender to police.

Also self reported him height and weight as the same height and weight as Lamar Jackson.  #EliteAthlete

I never said anything of that sort, just that a place none of you live in isn’t the hell hole you make it out to be. Sounds like you're the one moping about it. Shouldn’t you be Dutch ruddering with some bigoted dentists somewhere?

only one of the top 5 large cities losing 3% of it's population over the past 2-3 years-nothing to see here though.  just looking for their next victims eyn'a?

So on the nose you almost can't believe it.  Kind of like the only guy held in custody is the African American guy who can't post bond.  Rudy is set free to mumble and wander around, but the African American guy has to spend the weekend in jail. 

Who wrote this script?

LOL, Lens - just noticed this. Hope you had fun catching up - I’ll vouch for them as good people. I think they can be trusted.
