5. Excellent assessment of Dana Millbank
These pseudo journalists ignored all the evidence of the lies told by this administration, and they were serious lies, for years now. I remember Millbank making fun of Rep. Conyers' hearings on the DSM.

Why anyone asks him for his opinion on anything is beyond me. He is definitely working for the WH.

He tried to dismiss the Jeff Gannon story (when we finally know who told him about the memo, that story too will prove to have been important, imo), make fun of the lies revealed in the DSM and ridicule one of the few decent politicians we have in this country today.

Since he rarely actually 'reports' on anything, as far as I can tell, but mostly gives his opinion, we have a pretty clear picture of his own moral compass.

1) Phony journalists are no problem
2) Lies are fine, even if they are about war
3) An honest politician, shut out by a criminal administration, is someone to ridicule, while crooks in the WH are not.

There's more, but Dana is a joke, like all the rest of the WH propagandists, except for the fact that they got so many people killed.
