Ha! Williams Claimed He's Been ‘Cleansed’ of Opinion; Only Facts Left

March 6th, 2021 12:09 PM

Brian Williams appears to be one of those people who doesn’t listen to himself when he talks. How else to describe the reasons behind why the truth-challenged journalist says the things he does?

A FAR CRY FROM FOUR YEARS AGO: ‘Poetic’ Biden Delivers ‘Chills’

January 22nd, 2021 8:50 AM

The exuberance began even before Joe Biden was officially sworn-in.

Over on MSNBC, they completed their transformation from a network of hate for the President to one…
