“If I have to create stories so that the American media actually pays attention to the suffering of the American people, then that’s what I’m going to do.”

-- Vice President-Elect JD Vance.

(Translation: the false flags will continue until approval ratings improve.)

Literally in response to a rumor from Facebook that our now president-elect blew up to a national news story on live television. A rumor that was already debunked by the time he did so. Whether that was from malice or ignorance doesn't matter, each one has its own terrifying end.

That will be the moment that defines the next 4 years (at least). Much like Kellyanne Conway telling Chuck Todd about Alternative Facts right after Trump's first inauguration.
