Lisa's "question" at 1:36 would fit right in.

And the production values are nearly as good, too (unlike some).

OAN is truly horrifying. Imagine if it ever gained the popularity of Fox.

Thanks for posting, Rhiannon!

When the actual news organizations are forced to take turns now. Trump is doing his best to turn these essential informational briefings into the rallies that he misses. I cringe to think what history will make of this shameful and insane time in this country.
