The far-left, so-called “lamestream media” did it again Tuesday night—trying hard to fabricate a scandal from nothing.
During President Trump’s (unofficial) State of the Union Address, a hot mic captured him shaking hands with Chief Justice John Roberts and saying, “Thank you again, I won’t forget it.” Immediately, the left-wing conspiracy engine went into overdrive.
President Donald Trump to Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts: "Thank you again, I won't forget"

Secret deal? Backroom conspiracy? Or simply common courtesy?
The radical left quickly lost their composure, insisting that Trump’s remark was some kind of payoff for the recent Presidential Immunity ruling from the Supreme Court—a decision that confirmed basic constitutional protections and affirmed that presidents cannot be criminally prosecuted for their official actions.
Unsurprisingly, the usual media outlets—CNN, MSNBC, and The New York Times—ran with the narrative, suggesting a shadowy, behind-the-scenes deal between Trump and Roberts. In their view, every move Trump makes must be corrupt (unlike their favorite, Joe Biden, who can supposedly sell out America without any repercussions).
Rather than let the media spin their baseless story, Trump set the record straight on TruthSocial:
He explained, “The Fake ‘Play the Ref’ News, in order to create a divide between me and our great U.S. Supreme Court, heard me say last night, loudly and openly as I walked past the Justices on my way to the podium, ‘thank you’ to Chief Justice John Roberts. I don’t watch Fake News CNN or MSDNC, but I see they’re going crazy asking what I was thanking him for. They never even called my office. If they had, I would have told these sleazebag ‘journalists’ that I thanked him for swearing me in on Inauguration Day—and doing a really good job doing so! The Fake News never quits!” Boom. Case closed.
This is yet another failed attempt by the left to undermine Trump’s presidency—because they know he’s winning. The economy is booming, the border crisis is finally being addressed, and the American people overwhelmingly support his policies.
So what does the media do? They invent a scandal that never happened.
Sorry, Fake News. Better luck next time.
