The greatest threats to our democracy will come from within, not from outside our borders. You know that. And to include the Bonus Army next to Pearl Harbor, 9/11, and Hitler is asinine. You know that too.

Excellent point. Outside attacks have brought the country together. Attacks from the inside have torn the country apart. I guess it's a moot point though because conservatives are relishing tearing the country apart right now and will never dream of siding with the libs.

I wasn't attacking the Bonus Army, I was attacking the fascist tactics of deploying troops against former American veterans.

Anyone who honestly believes that the greatest threat to this country will come from outside is either incredibly naive, uneducated on history, or brainwashed by those who will destroy this great republic.

Fred, you have yet to post a link to said newspaper saying it won't fact-check President Biden. Until you do, how can I comment on it?

Wayne, have you ever seen any newspaper admit to their obvious biases? I don't see how they ever would, but those biases are easily proven if you just look at the stories they won't touch or just gloss over.

"If you just look at the stories they won't touch or just gloss over"

That's showing YOUR obvious biases, Rick.

In other words, you want them to biased in your direction.

It is also showing their biases. Example? The news media told you President Trump blocked Muslims from entering the country while he was in office. Total BS. 90% of Islamic people were allowed to come to America to visit. Only failed nations like Syria weren't allowed to visit because we couldn't verify their backgrounds. Meanwhile Biden bans travel from India, which has a huge Islamic population and the press says nothing.

I see, so looking at the Biden administration's policies with a critical eye is me being biased? You of all people should know the true definition of journalism. Journalism is supposed to cover all stories of importance and not just the one's that agree with a news organization's desired narrative. You know I'm right but you can't show me one of your trusted news sources that has any journalistic integrity. If you think you can, please do, and we can look back on important factual stories they chose to ignore because of politics they wanted to protect.

Your definition is flawed, Rick. And, it's biased. So no, I don't know you are right. You are wrong, actually. And there are at least seven types of journalism.

Simply put, news is the departure from the norm. That's why news organizations report on the one plane that crashed rather that the 17,000 that flew without crashing one day. Or why news reports on the husband who shot his wife to death, along with their three kids and not the millions of husbands who don't harm their wives.
