As Twitter uses the anti-Trump establishment media in its “fact check” of perfectly valid tweets from President Donald Trump, Facebook is allowing the establishment media competitors of Breitbart News, including USA Today, to apply “fact-check” labels to Breitbart News articles based on absurd language policing of the term “amnesty.”

LOS ANGELES — Democrats have begun embracing calls to “defund” or even “abolish” police departments. But a new YouGov poll shows that only 16% of Americans approve of that — including just 33% of black Americans.

The New York Times is in disarray after its editorial page published an op-ed by Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) that upset its readers and its own staff by calling for using the military to help restore order inside American cities gripped by violence, looting, and crime after the death of George Floyd.

Amazon, the world’s dominant online distributor of books and e-books and the world’s leading online retailer, is censoring a book about the Chinese virus from lockdown critic and former New York Times reporter Alex Berenson.

When the New York Times is repeatedly bullied into rewriting headlines and forced to beg forgiveness for publishing Sen. Tom Cotton’s (R-AR) op-ed, it’s no longer a newspaper.

The New York Times faced a public backlash from its own newsroom on Wednesday after the paper published an op-ed by Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) calling for the military to be used to quell nationwide rioting if necessary.
