The Atlantic published a report claiming Donald Trump disparaged fallen military members as "losers and suckers" during a 2018 trip to France.

Donald Trump doubled down on his "enemy of the people" label for the media, specifically targeting outlets that use anonymous sources to create "fake" stories.

Rhino the Bearded is highlighted for his work producing "No Agenda Shots," which are short video and audio clips of the program.
