“The investigation is nonsense. Trump may view the presidency as a business venture, but news outlets’ standing up for their constitutional rights has nothing to do with antitrust law, no matter what Laura Loomer says" said Freedom of the Press Foundation Chief of Advocacy Seth Stern @freedom.press

Trump is helping Russia to defeat Ukraine. Putin is helping Iran to defeat America. And republican voters don’t grasp any of it because they’re all hopped up on Fox News.

When your chest hurts, a 2½-month wait for a cardiologist is terrifying. Fox pretends America has no wait-time crisis. Republicans defend the system that leaves patients waiting and bills growing. Enough with the excuses. Protect our care. #RepublicanHealthcareCrisis
