You probably did not hear. Facebook did something great, and they purged thousands of hyp hyperpartisan pages, and facebook said enough. It technically said that it removed the pages because it was engaging in inflammatory behavior. And so good for them trying to make progress, but there is one problem. The president of the United States is the countrys biggest promoter of misinformation and he has been in a awfully chatty mood lately and awfully talkative and holding pressers and q as and chats on air force one.

Hello, im jake tapper in washington where the state of our union is in crisis, just three weeks until the midterm elections and President Trump is dealing with two major tests of his leadership, the disappearance of saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi, who should be celebrating his birth today this week. If the saudis are proven to be blamed for the missing journalist. We would be very upset and angry if that were the case. As of this moment they deny it and deny it vehemently. Could it be them .
