If this writer had more time, she would search for how many news stories about Donald Trump and his claims use the phrase ‘without evidence.’
She’s guessing there are a lot of them.
Because that’s what media does: anything Donald Trump says is ‘without evidence’ or ‘baseless’ while Joe Biden can say his uncle was eaten by cannibals and media shrugged it off as Joe being Joe.

Except for, you know, the evidence of fraud like spending tens of thousands of dollars on Politico subscriptions.
We do not despise the media enough.
Blink twice if USAID is in the room with you!

Heh.
Who wrote this headline and have the doctors told you when they will awake from the coma?

More to the point: how much USAID funding are they getting?
Ah yes. The requisite “without evidence”. Are you so stupid that you think America hasn’t been reading where the money is going?

Yes, they’re that stupid.

Of course they didn’t.
That’s (D)ifferent.
For real though, ABC is why old women sound really stupid on Facebook. https://t.co/YFvyAaO9j2

We laughed out loud at this.
Am I on the same @X as these guys… Are they not getting the memos? https://t.co/ZpfLm02I2g

If they are, they’re throwing those memos right in the circular file.
They’re supposed to be journalists; you’d think they’d do some digging about this.
This is the news we’re supposed to believe? Nothing but lies, 24/7. https://t.co/2Zv54s1vg7

Lies and propaganda.
