Fact-checking the Washington Post: Is it truthfully reporting Trump’s ‘lies’?
LaCorte News ^ | 4/2/2020 | John D. O’Connor

The great 14th century Italian poet Dante Alighieri, in his classic Inferno described and classified the sins that the eternally damned perpetrate. One of the lowest circles in Dante’s Lower Hell – for those who pervert reason – is reserved for the hypocrites, who accuse others of deceit while guilty themselves. He describes the leaden coats they wear in the style of a monk’s habit... The stark image comes to mind with the constant Washington Post “news” reports detailing the supposed thousands of lies told by President Trump in his first three years. So let’s fact-check The Washington Post’s “fact-check” for hypocrisy, that is, whether deceit lies behind its shiny, gilded exterior:

I went to a website that some libtard set me to a website that supposedly contained documentation of all The Presidents ‘lies’

They counted every single time that he said “No Russia Collusion” as ANOTHER lie.

So half the 3000 ‘lies’ he told were “no Russia collusion” and he was right. I’ll have to see if they reduced the number.

And even after the Mueller Report came out I still had morons telling me “maybe there was no collusion, but there was interference and implications” or something like that...

So I said OK tell me where the Mueller report says that and they would just reply “It’s in there...” _ After repeated attempts to get them to tell me where I was blocked.

Liberals have a mental disease.

Remember when the intrepid “journalists” of the Democrat fake-news outlets fact-checked the jug-eared jackass occupying the White House? Neither do I.

I’ve never heard of La Corte News, but that was a very good list that they put together. Thanks for the post.

And yes, the Washington Post is made up of lying scum who deserve scorn.

I know on social media the libtards like to reference huffington post or the Toronto star who gleefully have been tabulating Trump’s “lies”. I had to explain the my 7 year old the other day the difference between being mistaken and lying. The media basically counts opinions and knowledge infractions as lies.

I don’t think Trump is much different than other politicians in that he makes opinion statements most of the time. Not factual claims. By nature, opinions can’t be lies.
