Rachel Maddow, on tonight's show, laid open the bare and blatant lying coming from four Republican senators over the issue of reconciliation.
She uses an Op-Ed in today's Washington Post, written by Orrin Hatch, as prima facie evidence for her judgement.
WaPo
This use of reconciliation to jam through this legislation, against the will of the American people, would be unprecedented in scope. And the havoc wrought would threaten our system of checks and balances, corrode the legislative process, degrade our system of government and damage the prospects of bipartisanship.
Hatch lied.
...
Here's Maddow's rebuttal to that, and to the larger point that not only do major media companies collude to publish and not fact check this shit, they willfully promote it.
...and shamefully, they're not embarrassed.
Update:
If you'd like to tell the Washington Post what you think about their offering Hatch a no-factcheck forum to spew his lies, here's the email: hiattf@washpost.com
