So why doesn't he have press conferences?? Or he can establish a routine of talking to the nation on a regular basis. If his tweets are supposed to be a message from him............then why does he use Twitter to continually express his rage ,disdain and contempt for others.?? Is THAT the message he is trying to convey?/ Not very presidential or professional. Just more BS from a BS artist.

He doesn't like the media because it is doing its job and questioning his conduct. ........as they should. That is the purpose of the media in a democracy. Trump is acting like an emperor. He wants a state controlled media..........so he can determine the info that is released.
If you have failed to notice , both the printed media and the alphabet networks are losing subscribers and hence advertising dollars . The press are a dying or evolving breed , Trump is riding the wave of the future .

How online calls for a violent extremist uprising are hitting the mainstream

A new report has raised alarm among law enforcement officials about growing online calls for a violent uprising in the form of a second Civil War. While calls for organized and targeted violence have previously circulated among hate groups, the term ��boogaloo�� has emerged to refer to a new and discrete movement that has moved from the fringes of the internet into the mainstream in recent months and surged on social media.

US ranks lower than 38 other countries when it comes to children's wellbeing, new report says

The United States ranks lower than 38 other countries on measurements of children's survival, health, education and nutrition -- and every country in the world has levels of excess carbon emissions that will prevent younger generations from a healthy and sustainable future, according to a new report.

The report, published in the medical journal The Lancet on Tuesday, ranked 180 countries based on a "child flourishing index" and the United States came in at No. 39.
Countries also were ranked by levels of excess carbon emissions -- specifically researchers took a close look at estimated levels for 2030. Based on that data, the United States ranked No. 173 for sustainability, according to the report.
The year 2030 was selected as the threshold because in 2015 governments around the world adopted "Sustainable Development Goals" created by the United Nations to make improvements for people and the planet by 2030.
When contrasting the child flourishing rankings with the carbon emissions rankings, the countries among the top for children "flourishing" were shown to have some of the most concerning levels of excess carbon emissions predicted for the future, according to the report, which was conducted by a commission of the World Health Organization, United Nations Children's Fund and the Lancet.
"No country is in the right place with adequately making children flourish today and in the future," said Dr. Stefan Peterson, chief of health at UNICEF and an independent author of the report.

......... The wave of State-controlled (read State-censored)newsmedia? Thanks, but I'll stick with it as is over that.
The newsmedia hasn't changed since it was invented. Some fake news, some real news. Like Mark Twain allegedly said, “If you don’t read the newspaper, you are uninformed. If you do read the newspaper, you are misinformed.”
Before that, Thomas Jefferson wrote, "Nothing can now be believed which is seen in a newspaper. Truth itself becomes suspicious by being put into that polluted vehicle. The real extent of this state of misinformation is known only to those who are in situations to confront facts within their knowledge with the lies of the day".

Yes but it has changed in regards to reader and viewership . Ten short years ago , and for all the years prior , my recycling bin was full of newspaper . Vancouver Sun , and Province , various other community papers as well as the odd Nation Post or N.Y. Times . Most of my friends seem to be the same . People aren’t consuming the MSM product in the same numbers as years past .

Sure they are, it just isn't in paper. It's on tv and in newsfeeds.

Exactly my point , people are getting their news from twitter , Facebook , various blogs , and less and less from the MSM , including television . Trump is riding the twitter verse .

Come to fruition during Trumps’s time.
He's a crook, a liar, con man, stiffed his contractors, cheated on his wives. He's the one Malcom X was talking about. Truth is lies, up is down, and you love this prick because you don't know your ass from your elbow.
