    I think their main targets are Breitbart, InfoWars, and Project Veritas.

    They are particularly after Breitbart and Steve Bannon. They are almost foaming at the mouth over Bannon...

    At least Occupy Democrats made it on the list as it is one of the most annoying, hateful sites ever. I can't believe people believe what they write!!

    Fact-checker is a new one on me - but I have doubted Snopes all along.

    What bothers me is so many people think whatever they find on Snopes is gospel.

    Do they really think some website can actually check out all things and find the truth? If so, the government could take lessons from them.

    Also, I don't know about PE Trump and Russian connection.

    You know it seems anyone can route their internet connection from anywhere.

    People can evidently have their internet routed through other cities and other countries - even Russia.

    I agree, read a lot of different sites, different viewpoints.

    One I used to read is where I learned our government had given licenses for illegals to operate a radio station - "so they could advise other workers of the weather conditions".

    They were bragging about it, I was horrified.

    Licenses to operate barber and hair salons too. A citizen must attend an accredited school $$$ for a set amount of hours then must take a state board exam. The illegals sneakered across the border and open these shops with none of the hours or exams required. There are health issues with hair, scalp, shaving that require knowledge for safety and public health.

    They operate restaurants as well.

    Licenses & Inspection comes around and inspects for valid licenses of anyone working in the shop - all workers licenses must be displayed at all times - no license and you pay fine and could close the shop for a period of time. The over reach of the federal gov't into obliterating states' laws is incredible and is a mockery to our citizens.
