On the impeachment story, if you followed one set of media, you would conclude that the President was guilty as charged of pressuring the Ukraine government to do an investigation of the Bidens.

If you followed the other set of media, you would think the opposite: that the whole thing is a sham orchestrated by the Democratic Party and the “deep state.”

Testimony thus far demonstrates that Donald Trump did what he is accused of doing. Whether it warrants impeachment or not can be debated. But on the Biden accusation, witness after witness has given compelling condemnatory testimony; it’s a slam dunk.

But that’s not the way the public sees it. In large part because of the descent of American media into two competing camps – “armies” might be a better word – the public verdict on the impeachment issue is divided sharply along partisan lines.

The media are constantly lamenting the woefully polarized state of the union. But in their coverage of the country, they foster the division. Conservatives beat up on liberal media with soap-box bluster all day long. And vice versa. There is not much in between.

By all rights, Mr. Trump and his Republicans should be falling in public favour in this impeachment fight. But in the polls they’re holding their own. Their media battalions are so strong - Richard Nixon had no such media infrastructure to defend him – that they can make any amount of bilge credible. They turn the story on its head, and claim it’s all an elitist conspiracy. - The Globe and Mail.  This is Real Life is Fake

Maxwell was arrested on charges that she conspired with Jeffrey Epstein to recruit and abuse minors. She pleaded not guilty to the charges last week and is being held in custody until her trial, which is anticipated to begin on July 12, 2021.

Trump, Epstein and Maxwell have previously been photographed together in Mar-a-Lago. For nearly a decade since the ’80s, Trump and Epstein were also known to socialize in similar circles, as the Washington Post reported last year. But shortly after Epstein’s arrest, Trump distanced himself from the financier when he publicly stated that he was “not a fan” of Epstein and said that the two had a “falling out.” - The Wrap

From Georgia to Florida the African-American vote has a lot of power this year, especially in the race to the White House.  Education.  Better roads.  Housing.  Healthcare.  The economy.  Jobs.  The power of the black vote and what issues matter the most to the African-American community is more consequential than ever in 2020. - WTXL ABC Tallahassee.  

I happen to disagree.  To a great extent both Conservatives, Liberals and others in between talk the same game but they keep that African American community conveniently divided and vilified.  This is Real Life is Fake

During China’s outbreak, a number of citizen journalists, human rights  activists, and people on social media accused the regime of covering up  the number of cases and deaths. Disturbing video footage during the height of the outbreak showed what appeared to be CCP  officials abducting people and locking people inside their homes. - The Epoch Times

In an op-ed in the Washington Post, the four — Tom Frieden, Jeffrey Koplan, David Satcher and Richard  Besser — who among them led the CDC over a period of more than 15 years  encompassing both Republican and Democratic administrations, wrote that  they cannot recall a single time in the past when political pressure had  actually led to a change in the interpretation of scientific evidence.  Yet that’s exactly what’s happening in the current administration as President Donald Trump has undercut guidelines devised by the CDC on safely reopening schools immediately after they were released, said the op-ed. - Market Watch
