1. I sure would like it if you included the link as well

I know a lot of people here complain about links ONLY, but -- if you include the link I can go retweet, I can respond, I can see who else responded and said what, etc.

from a site on Facebook called "The Political Resistance Against Donald Trump". I went back to check if there was a direct link to the tweet and there isn't......sorry....

4. Found the tweet

Link to tweet

It begins by seeding the ground with a falsehood: "They spied on the Trump campaign." It's then promoted by the President, who echoes the falsehood. Then his allies call to investigate the falsehood.

This is how propaganda works. It is also how democracy dies, one lie at a time.

7. Yet another blow struck by Adam Schiff.

I fear he is outmanned, and outgunned, though. There needs to be MANY Adam Schiffs.

12. K&R The Big Lie......

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”
