The New York Times article is riddled with errors that multiple sources publicly deny. It fails to include information easily found in the public record.

Jason Zengerle publicly announced his profile of Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Calif., in today’s New York Times Sunday Magazine with the snarky tweet, “My latest for the @NYTmag on Devin Nunes, who’s been propagating, not to mention falling for, conspiracy theories since before the Deep State was even in a gleam in Donald Trump’s eye.”

It’s an accurate summation of the hit he attempted to place on Nunes, the chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI). The only problem is the case he attempts to make is riddled with errors and full of embarrassing and deliberate material omissions.

Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown

The Left has become proficient at deception by distortion. It is a skill developed over generations of practice.

New York Times and Riddled With Errors is redundant. Smile (And many of the "errors" are intentional).

You think the NYT really cares? They will say "hey everybody in this business does it."

More of the same. They've past into the lunatic fringe a long time ago.:

MSNBC analyst to Dem rep: Has Nunes been compromised by the Russians?

"Congressman Nunes, your chairman, it is suggested not by me but by people who follow these matters closely, could possibly be someone who’s been compromised by the Russians. Is that something you consider a possibility?”

I am very glad that Mollie took the time to pen this article. I just wish that more people would read these types of fact check rebuttals and the original stories had to be retracted and corrected. Sadly, we all know that that will never happen.

Love the last line.

Right on! Mollie Hemingway is on the Fox News Special Report panel several days each week, and she's equally effective on the air.
