Twice a day since the beginning of the Trump administration, a special folder is prepared for the president. The first document is prepared around 9:30 a.m. and the follow-up, around 4:30 p.m. Former Chief of Staff Reince Priebus and former Press Secretary Sean Spicer both wanted the privilege of delivering the 20-to-25-page packet to President Trump personally, White House sources say.
These sensitive papers, described to VICE News by three current and former White House officials, don’t contain top-secret intelligence or updates on legislative initiatives. Instead, the folders are filled with screenshots of positive cable news chyrons (those lower-third headlines and crawls), admiring tweets, transcripts of fawning TV interviews, praise-filled news stories, and sometimes just pictures of Trump on TV looking powerful.
One White House official said the only feedback the White House communications shop, which prepares the folder, has ever gotten in all these months is: “It needs to be more fucking positive.” That’s why some in the White House ruefully refer to the packet as “the propaganda document.”

So are we supposed to report repeat threads or what? It's not technically against the rules but this is the third thread we've had about this.

Eh, repeat threads are going to happen. Can't really expect janis to be on top of deleting them. I just hide them most of the time.

Sounds more like fake news to me.

I hate vice too, but I haven't caught them on many inaccuracies yet. Got any bullshit story links that we can laugh at?

They jump the gun and early stories may be inaccurate, but generally they're preddy gud if not incredibly left leaning.

I didn't say it wasnt true, I said it's just a bullshit story

wuz overkill

LMAO! Is this really worth discussing? More Anti Trump bullshit!

>>166473
Their reporting on Africa is generally poorly sourced and factually wrong

Please explain to me how a bullshit story is different from an untrue story.

If you say:
>I like sucking cocks but I'm no fag.
That's bullshit.
>I like girls, I'm not gay.
That's untrue.
