  2. All the cabal tele-vision networks report on is doom and fear.
    All they do is deceive and lie
    A little truth with a bunch of lies is deception and thats the speciality of these creeps.

  3. Seriously! All thats out there on ghe msm is negative. Demonize police, demonized history you name it and its only the negative that gets air time over all
