What to Expect From ProPublica in a Second Trump Administration

Donald Trump's victory marks a turning point in the American experiment, and there is much to be dissected about what it means. We will leave that analysis to others. Our role as an investigative news organization lies elsewhere. In the coming months and years, we will be devoting a significant portion of our staff to chronicling the effects of what promises to be a drastic change in the role of the federal government in all of our lives.

An excellent news source. The opposition from the Left should fund organizations like this and the ACLU, to help protect the rights and freedoms of Americans. We will be under attack from within every day from Inauguration Day until the mid-term elections, and perhaps beyond...

Great statement from ProPublica. I wish them the best and to stay safe, which could very well be difficult in the coming days.

FTA:

ProPublica's @eisingerj to his staff:

"We face the biggest test of our professional lives. Now we get to see if we really meant it when we said we will hold power to account. Will we do so when our subjects have true power on their side and a willingness to use it? We may be harassed. We may be sued. We may be threatened with violence. We may be ignored. Are we just sunshine journalists or are we ready?"

The ACLU has become truly an example of obscene Democrat radical political bias and corruption just like NY-AG Letitia James and Soros DAs. I used to donate to them. They represent a conspiracy favoring Democrat politics not civil rights and fairness for all. Any organization that supports a political party blindly is wrong for justice and for Americans. You can't run for office as an Attorney General claiming the mission is to forget justice and instead get Trump.

Perhaps she needs her fat axx being prosecuted as a political conspirator as others have said.

Probably the most accurate objective newspaper in America in recent years has been New York Post, but it is banned as reference. Why?
