No, he does what you do. Call out the networks with heavy bias. You’ve slated the BBC for having a Brexit bias, which is inaccurate, more like bias for Remain.

So this Russian collusion story.... seems there was collusion after all, back in 2009...

The Obama administration potentially knew of corruption at a Russian nuclear supplier years before it agreed to sign over 20 per cent of US's uranium supply to the company, a new report has claimed.

The Hill claims federal agents found evidence of illegal payments made to an employee at a Russian nuclear company years before the Obama administration allowed the company to make a major business deal.

Employees at Tenex, a subsidiary of Rosatom – the regulatory body of the Russian nuclear complex – received bribes and kickbacks from American companies as early as 2009, according to the Hill. An undercover agent made secret recordings, collected financial records, and intercepted emails documenting the payments – the earliest of which was recorded in September 2009.

The decision sparked controversy years later, following a 2015 bombshell report: The New York Times found Moscow had paid millions of dollars to the Clinton Foundation at the same time the US was pondering the Rosatom deal. Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State at the time.

Sarah Huckabee Sandees completely changed what he actually said.
Well looks like General Kelly is the one who told Trump, Obama did not call parents up. NBC are running with:
