Hello Callinectes Ocasio-Cortez,
I have no problem discerning that everything CNN reports is real. And I trust that if they mistakenly aired something that turned out to be incorrect that they would do a retraction.
President Trump lies so much it is safe to simply assume everything he says is a lie until verified. That's why nobody is taking him seriously after his glowing SOTU speech. He really sounded good. Sounds like he is acting more like a seasoned slick politician. And that makes sense. He is a slick-talking con man from way back. That speech was really well written, and it appeared he mostly stayed on script (for a change.) But how can we take him at his word that he wants a new era of bipartisanship when he lied in the same speech?
"Trump: “I want people to come into our country in the largest numbers ever, but they have to come in legally.”

Context: Last fall Trump set the lowest cap in the history of the refugee admission program -- permitting just 30,000 a year. In former President Barack Obama's last year in office he proposed a cap of 110,000 amid the height of the crisis in Syria. In fiscal year 2017, the Trump administration allowed the second fewest refugees ever.
Trump also won a battle in the Supreme Court to restrict all forms of travel and immigration from seven countries, five of which have Muslim majority populations. Just last week, the administration began selectively enforcing a new policy at the southern border that requires migrants seeking asylum to wait in Mexico while their applications are processed. He has also called for the elimination of the diversity visa program, which typically awards up to 50,000 immigration visas each year. "
Fact Checking The President
Oh, let me guess. You think the above documented LIE is 'fake news.'
Do you really think he has allowed more legal immigration than ever before? Just because President Trump SAID so as "a plain spoken guy and he's easy to understand without going through a bunch of talking heads that hate him?"
