Homeland Depicts Brave Female President Against Violent Right-Wing Mob

Beito has written a fascinating look at “Roosevelt’s War Against the Press.” The telling subtitle? “FDR Had His Own Breitbart, and Radio Was His Twitter.” Well, yes. Exactly.

Nikki Haley with ridiculous questions about Russia, and at one point insinuated that she doesn’t speak for the U.S. “And you mentioned this. President Trump has said he respects Putin.

With each passing day, the Russia story seems to balloon and grow a whole new facet for the media to talk about.
