How fake is Fox “News”? Pretty fake.
What Fox News had “previously reported” on the completely fabricated videos.

![THEY QUOTED A FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR OPINING ON WHAT THE NON-EXISTENT BLACK PEOPLE IN THE FAKE VIDEOS SAID:
"Because of the government shutdown, now I can’t get my SNAPs for next month," another user shared on social media.
The user went on to ask how she was supposed to feed her seven children.
"I have seven different baby daddies and none of ‘em no good for me," she said.
Fox News contributor Brett Cooper discussed the woman’s comments on her YouTube channel, calling the video "insane" before commenting, "That is [her] responsibility… It is not [the] American taxpayers fault that you have seven baby daddies who will not step up and help you pay the grocery bills."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:5jgvsxybi3ivfmaxqczyj2cw/bafkreialpk66hn5r7nvy33j5vdyrnyzhbjdwhdcahhqepd3vatjgvymmrq@jpeg)
![THEY DEVOTED SEVERAL PARAGRAPHS TO THE DESCRIPTION OF THINGS THAT DIDN’T ACTUALLY HAPPEN AND WERE JUST VIDEO FABRICATIONS CREATES BY A COMPUTER MODEL:
Other users joined the online debate with videos showing people confronting grocery store staff and threatening to steal food, saying, "I ain’t paying nothing. I’m walking out with it."
One man shared how "mad" he was in a video showing three carts filled with groceries at his place of work, with the bill totaling $1,013.73, all charged to food stamps and later voided.
Another Walmart employee shared he "had to go home" because people entered the store "bum-rushing [and] stealing" before "running out the store" amid changes to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) in November.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:5jgvsxybi3ivfmaxqczyj2cw/bafkreihhioiil7pzoegs76wrwxxoaz27lvej7iqwqikejcchbw2ln6l2vy@jpeg)

@hcrichardson.bsky.social's deadpan account of one day in the life of Trump's America is devastating. It's all about the juxtapositions, like 24 photos of his White House bathroom renovation (white marble, gold fixtures) as SNAP benefits expire.

Cheering! It's nice to imagine legislation now could have such benefits within my life
"In the layers of lake mud, we see not only a record of damage but also a testament to nature’s resilience, a reminder that with good legislation and timely intervention, recovery is possible."

Industrial pollution once ravaged the Adirondacks − decades of history captured in lake mud track their slow recovery
Acid rain and metals from power plants, vehicles and industries reached remote mountain lakes for years. Evidence from those lakes today shows the success of the Clean Air Act.

Club Ped moves to the Epstein Ballroom!
I for one think the Epstein Ballroom will be magnificent. I love the decor theme of “what if Uday Hussein ran a Ramada Inn.” And giving it a theme song everyone will associate with it is a stroke of brilliance! “Thank Heaven for Little Girls” is very catchy.
