#5 Truly a substance free editorial. Accuse your opponents of being conspiracy freaks (why, you must be craaaazy!), make a bogus assertion of continued violence (hey, what about BLM & Antifa, huh?), and the belief that your political opponents are comparable to Islamic nutbags intent on death and nothing else.

Some things shall not be challenged, or questioned.

#6 Our local newspaper of record was bought out by USA Today (Gannett Publishing) a few years back. It has sucked big time ever since. We dumped it shortly after they turned left.

This headline likening the Cheney ouster to the 911 hijackers is not a great surprise.

#7 Solution: .68 cal paintball Claymore that can be attached to front bumper, grill, roof rack that can be rudimentarily camo'd as fog lights. Replace paintballs with pepperballs. Each mine is armed with 22 balls. Be sure to pay the few extra $ for the remote triggers.

#10 Lots of "missing" ballots in the Maricopa County recount, up to 17.5% missing in individual pallets. That's before any canvassing for invalid mail in ballots. Yet, the Republicans the the real threat to "democracy".

Same here in my Middle eastern GA. area.
Gannett Publishing purchased the newspaper laid off a lot of local staff and start using Inter-Sate and International resources to put the paper out and website together.

USA Today (Gannett Publishing) subscribers and renewals dropped to such a LOW number. That they have been offering 6 months for $1 ... yes one ($1).

Pre Gannett Publishing, the Augusta Chronicle use to have an great paper with a open but monitored Public comment section on any article except (AP) articles.

That also quickly ended with the take over by Gannett Publishing.

Then it was constantly select for publication ANTI-TRUMP letters to the Editor and Anti-Conservative Rants and Raves. Then no public comments allowed.

Given how many 100's of outlets USA Today - Gannett Publishing owns, it seem like a Lawyer looking for $$$$$ would file a ANTI-TRUST suit and restriction of trade by Monopoly.
