    “In the fake news media, there are two sets of rules, and conservative[s] are always treated differently,” she continued. “That’s why Americans don’t trust the Fake News.”

    I’m a snowflake! I’m a snowflake! I’m a snowflake!

    It was around 2019 that I realized that conservatives have a persecution complex. I thought I’d unlocked some secret truth. Nope. It’s obvious to all of us who pay attention (I just hadn’t been paying attention).

        No no no. That’s a line from the novel 1984, which is a criticism of Communism. Kristi Noem hates Communism. How can the statement apply to her? She’s literally always been at war with Eastasia.

    Well, she’s right about that much, but not in the way she thinks.

    Honestly, the fact that sociopathic whack jobs like Noem are even given the time of day by the media shows how beholden they are to conservative interests.

    I mean you wrote the book lady. You could just lied and not said shit and later on when it came out that you did drive out to a gravel pit with the expressed purpose of shooting a puppy in the head…

    THATS when you cry fake news.
