Watch This GOP Senator Cook the WSJ Over the Trump-Epstein Birthday Card Hoax

Sen. Bernie Moreno (R-OH) wasn’t having any of The Wall Street Journal’s fake news nonsense over the Trump-Epstein birthday hoax. The publication tried to spark another Russian collusion hoax-like media frenzy with this cockamamie story about how Donald Trump typed a birthday message to Jeffrey Epstein for the latter’s 50^th birthday in 2003. The whole story stinks, not least because when the White House asked the Journal to produce a copy of the note, they wouldn’t. And they couldn’t—they admitted they didn’t possess it. The article mentioned the birthday card, but didn’t publish it.

The Ohio Republican appeared on CNN, criticizing host Kaitlin Collins for devoting most of her program to this hoax. Moreno added that the story is a distraction from what seems to be an endless stream of wins: we have lower inflation, lower gas prices, stability worldwide, the most secure border in American history, and passed a bill that cut taxes, kicked illegals off Medicaid, and fully funded Trump’s immigration enforcement measures.

WATCH: Senator @berniemoreno absolutely torches the con job from WSJ.

So let me get this straight:

– Trump is getting his agenda through
– Republicans are out-raising Democrats
– The House & Senate maps favor the GOP

We’re not just witnessing the Golden Age unfold. We’re on track to own it for the next 3.5 years.
