Will Trump’s next press secretary be a better liar than the first five?
"As Karoline Leavitt prepares to step down from her role as Donald Trump’s fifth White House press secretary, a brief review of her tenure, and that of her predecessors, makes clear that the most fabulist president in US history prizes one quality above all else in the women and men who speak for him: a willingness to tell outrageous lies."

@dim0kq #Russian students educated primarily to ‘serve the state’ better hope they end up on the EAST side of the #SinoFinnishBorder when it goes from punchline to reality. They would be an unemployable liability on the WEST side.
Sorta like #American kids raised in a #BasketOfDeplorables and ‘educated’ with a curriculum of #AlternativeFacts. Only #ICE would hire them, and it will soon be abolished.
“The #education bone is connected to the #democracy bone.”

I used to think about some problems as being a "collective action problem." Lately, I've been thinking of it as a collective "acknowledgement" problem. The truth has to come first. Action takes a second place.
(and yeah, I understand the irony of adding a Roisín from Moloko track to illustrate my point...)

Nu moeten een complotdenker, een special interest scientist en een gepensioneerde pinguinonderzoeker een doorbraak forceren. De feiten zijn niet welkom, misschien dat alternatieve feiten uitkomst bieden.
Aan de overkant van de plas kun je zien waar #alternativefacts je kunnen brengen. -
Some stories have a dark side. Should we support those storytellers among us who use stories for immoral and unethical ends?

And now @[email protected] is just lying or using #AlternativeFacts to claim the @[email protected] didn't spend any money on the report. One unpaid volunteer did all the interviews, Ken? Traveled to all 50 states? Did all the background research? No one edited? Stop lying.

*#SocialMedia and the #Fediverse*
(1/n)
"...Different people disagree. Different contexts clash. Feedback exposes gaps..."
Sigh; this is exactly what I miss not having the old #Twitter anymore.
I have contacts here on different continents, in different walks of life and stages if life, but we have to admit that--in contrast to the old Twitter--we live in a (luckily) "sanitized #DMZ" 1): those with opposing #AlternativeFacts-indoctrinated,..
1) DMZ = Demilitarized Zone

Mike Pompeo now says Israel is the real victim in Gaza, which is true if you measure suffering in units of awkward press conferences rather than, say, dead children or bombed hospitals. But don’t worry—if Palestinians lose their history, Pompeo’s got plenty of alternative facts to spare.

In a ‘Did you know…’ article posted today, @wikipedia seems to be reminding #Americans of the audaciousness of #DonaldTheDeplorable and his #MAGA #cult wearing red hats with “Trump 45 - 47” (instead of ‘45 & 47’).
They might also be preparing us for decades (or longer!) of #AlternativeFacts in the #UnitedStates - IF the #RuleOfLaw does not return to #USpol.
