It pays to remember, when a former (and possible future) president intimidates and vilifies federal officials in an effort to undermine the rule of law: the intimidation works!- Jumping through RupesSure, powerful Fox News hosts knew stolen election allegations and conspiracies about Dominion voting machines were BS.
