Before the raid on Mar-a-Lago yesterday, it appears the New York Times and CNN might have been foreshadowing the events to come with some comically serious reporting about White House toilets.

MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” is led by a former Republican congressman, Joe Scarborough, who pretends to play the role of the voice of Republicans on his show.

Ana Navarro is a rage-filled political commentator who cares less about the facts of what she is discussing and more about her next TV hit.

After about a week of pretending there was no definition for “recession” that society had settled on (there is), the economic data showed that the United States was, in fact, in a recession.
