Lies

Great Beatlesque style single by The Knickerbockers from 1965.  A one-hit wonder New Jersey band they adopted the British approach - listen to how "girl" becomes "gurl" in the lyrics.

Speaking of lies, let's quickly note three current lies promulgated by the Biden Administration.

The filibuster as a "Jim Crow" relic.  Historically a lie.  More recently, only Democrats have used the filibuster since 2014.  When, in 2017 President Trump asked Sen. McConnell to end the filibuster, McConnell refused to do so.  Just last year, the Democrats used the filibuster to block Senate action on Republican Senator Tim Scott's police reform bill.  Senator Scott is the first black senator elected from a former Confederate state since Reconstruction.

The Georgia voting legislation, as yet another "Jim Crow".  Basically, everything President Biden is saying about it is a lie.

There is no border crisis.  Yes, there is.  Can you imagine if President Trump was blocking access to border facilities by the press and even members of the opposition party?

The difference between when President Trump lied or, more commonly, blustered and exaggerated, is media reporters would challenge him on it and then report.  Now propaganda outlets like the New York Times, Washington Post, CNN, MSNBC and the networks work overtime to amplify Biden's lies.
