In response to a comment in another thread where someone asked if anyone was keeping track of all of the illegal and unethical crap being pulled by the Orange Fascist-In-Chief and Melon Husk, I am posting this as a P.S.A. and resource for everyone finding it difficult to remember every crime.

Am I missing something? This is categorized as a Satire site: https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/mcsweeneys-internet-tendency/
Yes, the point is that it can’t operate as a satire site in this regard, because the insanity of reality is beyond satire, and they believe that their duty lies instead with truth.
“Media bias fact check” isn’t a good source in itself - McSweenys does have satire, but is a well-respected literary publication. They’ve branched out over the years but this is still very much in their wheelhouse. It was created by Dave Eggers.
