Telling the Truth Won’t Do in Aoteazuela

As I’ve repeatedly warned BFD readers, always assume that a so-called “fact-checker” is trying to mislead you. But, if it’s bad enough that professional, often taxpayer-funded, liars in cahoots with the mainstream media are bullshitting you, it’s far worse when a statutory body is joining in the

The Circus Just Keeps on Giving

The Circus Just Keeps on Giving

For as long as I can remember, there hasn’t been such a goldmine of scandal and skullduggery as the Higgins-Lehrmann saga since the 1970s, at least. It’s a never-ending fountain of shenanigans: from scheming politicians, sketchy public servants, dodgy lawyers and shameless media. It’s burned nearly everyone

What Are ‘Fact Checkers’ Lying about Today? #4
