Donald Trump wants the Senate Intel Committee to investigate ‘fake news’
What do you want to talk about today? Gun control? Abortion? Health care? America’s military presence around the world? The Russia investigation? All of the above? Too bad, because our esteemed Emperor Pissypants wants to tweet about fake f–king news all morning. Yesterday, Donald Trump sent Secretary of State Rex Tillerson out there to not really deny the factual, confirmed stories that Tillerson called Trump a “f–king moron” and that Tillerson wants to quit. Tillerson came out yesterday and he was like, “Blah, whatever, words,” but Pissypants is still SO mad about it. He tweeted about it yesterday and today:
Wow, so many Fake News stories today. No matter what I do or say, they will not write or speak truth. The Fake News Media is out of control!

NBC news is #FakeNews and more dishonest than even CNN. They are a disgrace to good reporting. No wonder their news ratings are way down!

The @NBCNews story has just been totally refuted by Sec. Tillerson and @VP Pence. It is #FakeNews. They should issue an apology to AMERICA!

Why Isn't the Senate Intel Committee looking into the Fake News Networks in OUR country to see why so much of our news is just made up-FAKE!

Rex Tillerson never threatened to resign. This is Fake News put out by @NBCNews. Low news and reporting standards. No verification from me.

Why would NBC need “verification” from Donald Trump, a noted liar and despot, if the story is about Rex Tillerson’s unhappiness in the administration? Trump literally believes the people who work in the government are his slaves, that they cannot speak without his permission, that they cannot say one word against their dear leader, and that they are not working as public servants, on behalf of the American people. As for Trump wanting the Senate Intel committee to look into “fake news” – they are. They’re looking into the Russian-Trump fake news network which got him elected.
Anyway, the stories are all true – Tillerson did call Trump a “f–king moron” and reportedly, White House aides wanted Tillerson to resign because of it. WaPo reports that Tillerson is very unhappy but mostly the vibe is that Tillerson isn’t going anywhere until Trump pushes him out personally, which may never happen.
Also something to keep your eye on: Kellyanne Conway has gotten caught up in that air-travel scandal. She was on several of those planes with Tom Price, who resigned last week.
