Garbled and confused messages from this White House

"No, we weren't told about that", the Congress says.

"We told them about it", Pompeo says.

Trump tells FOX News that four embassies were targeted. Huh?

Why didn't they tell our Congress that??

Nobody knows the truth, it seems?

It looks like another abuse of power.

How did protesters get into the green zone and then get into and atop the embassy in baghdad?

That is the most secure complex in the world, and protesters just walked right in.

The Iraqi government started to reopen the green zone back in December 2018 and it was all opened up by June 2019. All the walls and checkpoints are gone.

The lies are so transparent, so nonsensical, that if there were an actual liberal media, these types of things would be front page news,
