Additionally, the previous article about this topic is a reminder of the importance in having a free press and being vigilant. Though one may not always agree with certain outlets, they provide information that would not otherwise receive attention and offer a different perspective to help us strengthen or reevaluate our views. They also monitor their competitors, especially those with different political views, and report any impropriety of their opponents for viewers to know the truth. Still, many of these outlets promote their own agenda by the manner in which they report news or do not cover certain stories. Thus, constituents must also analyze the world around them based on their own observations. That people held their elected officials accountable for questionable behavior here showed who is rightfully in charge of the government.

Of course, one can argue that, even with the Committee, corruption thrived among Democrats and Republicans, which is a theory of how Trump got elected. Corruption is unacceptable, regardless of who lowers his or her standards.

The Hill link:
404 page not found and a redirection to an online casino. :(

Vigilance is good, however.

The move only shows how scared the Republicans are of Trump and his almighty tweets.

DAILY QUOTE:
"The NATO charter clearly says that any attack on a NATO member shall be treated, by all members, as an attack against all. So that means that, if we attack Greenland, we'll be obligated to go to war against ... ourselves! Gee, that's scary. You really don't want to go to war with the United States. They're insane!"
