Truth Matters January 21, 2018, Mike Rinder, Something Can Be Done About It

Senator Jeff Flake (R - Arizona) made a speech a few days ago on the Senate floor.

Though a Republican, he excoriated President Trump over attacks on the media and his catchphrases "Fake News" and "enemy of the people."

I was brought up to believe the media are "Merchants of Chaos" and should be "kicked down the stairs" because L. Ron Hubbard said so. He proclaimed the media to be enemies of scientology and therefore enemies of mankind. It was a mindset I held for 40 years. He made no bones about his disdain for the "running dog press" who only want to "take him down" and "destroy scientology and his good work." One of his last public utterances was "if the papers say it, it isn't true."
