LIES

Today's New York Times contains a full-page summary, in tiny print, of the lies that the current resident of the White House has told since January 20, 2017.  

I can recall conversations with family and friends wondering why the media did not use the word "LIE" rather than euphemisms like untruth, misstatement, falsehood, malarkey, and, of course, "alternative facts" to expose the mendacity.

The first time that The New York Times used the word LIE, rather than euphemisms, to confront LIES committed by The Liar-In-Chief, was in September, 2016.
