.
Fox News host Shepard Smith slammed President Trump and the White House on Monday for its shifting story on the June 2016 Trump Tower meeting with a Russian lawyer and who wrote a later memo on the encounter, asserting that "somebody is lying to us."

"It's one of those days when you just don't know what to do because we have two things put out as truth, and they're opposites. And as a result of the fact they're opposites, one of them is untrue," Smith said following the White House's daily press briefing.

Over the weekend, The New York Times reported that Trump's legal team told special counsel Robert Mueller in a letter that President Trump dictated Donald Trump Jr.'s response to a report about the 2016 meeting with a Russian lawyer with ties to the Kremlin.

Several Agencies most likely have audio and visual evidence dating back years.

Waiting for Brennan,Clapper,Sally Yates and Comey blowing the lid off this by the end of Summer. Remember these folks are or were scheduled to appear before the Senate Intel Committee once again.

Is he there so Fox can brag they DO tell the truth? Is he allowed to do what he does to placate the FCC? Is he insurance against the conservative downfall, so they have some place to escape to? Or is he, to the rest of Fox News, like some crazy fringe locoweed? He is incompatible with much of the rest of the network.

He said “ ...one of those things is untrue “

He should have said “AT LEAST one of those things is untrue.”

From what we know of this crowd, both versions could be lies.
