Fake or Real News?
Robert, Small Dead Animals - 17 hours ago
A friend in Vancouver sent me this news story about Biden’s first phone call with China’s dictator, insisting that this shows that Biden is taking the correct approach to effect change over there. Am I the only one who questions whether any part of this article is accurate about what they actually discussed?
