When lies become used as casually by the prisency as office banter. Something needs to be done!!!

Not just the president but the press secretary and most of his cabinet now just casually lie through their teeth like they are talking about what they had for dinner the other night. And we aren't talking about minor policy details. We are talking about inventing terrorist attacks that never happened. The president and his people are lying about Americans having been murdered on home soil! Let's stop and think about that for a second. It boggles the mind! And the lies are getting larger, and bolder and told more frequently. When the hell is this madness actually going to have fucking consequences??

TV, newspapers, radio, politicians, Wall Street bankers, international leaders

They lie and lie, we KNOW they lie, but then everyone's surprised when TrumpInc lies

The same disregard for truth from an earlier illegitimate President and his Cabinet of corporate tools.
