I was very worried you would mention Goldbergs many fraudulent and erroneous reports especially Russia Russia Russia.
I remember you asking who was held responsible when Joe Biden left 13 US military dead in Afghanistan but forgot the reply you got or was it Bidens reply to a great operation.
It's great to see you remove the fake news name off the paper by mistake.
