Welcome to the Freethought Forum

The lofty high Renaissance and marked mannerism. The heavy and ornate Baroque era, followed by the gentle Rococo. Harsh neo-classicism, rich romanticism, lush naturalism, stern realism, blurred impressionism. Heady surrealism, blockish cubism, postwar Dada, pointy-cornered art deco and cookie cutter Bauhaus.

The Russia story is "vastly" worse than the disinformation than Trump and the GOP engage in. Because the Steele dossier might not all be true, but Greenwald never acknowledges that the Senate's investigation concluded there was basically coordination between the Trump campaign and Russia, he never acknowledges that Russia hacked the DNC, etc. so he pretends that there's nothing to the Russia 2016 story.
