Paapa Essiedu (L); late Alan Rickman (R)

HBO has announced plans to cast a Black actor as Severus Snape in its upcoming Harry Potter series adaptation, in yet another brazen move by the radical left to rewrite and ruin beloved classics.

The iconic character, immortalized by the late Alan Rickman in the original films, is described in J.K. Rowling’s books in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban as “a thin man with sallow skin, a large hooked nose, and greasy, shoulder-length black hair.”

“Sallow” is an old-fashioned term that describes a pale, yellowish, or sickly complexion. It often implies someone looks unwell, gaunt, or drawn, rather than naturally dark-skinned. In literature — especially British — it’s often used to describe characters with light skin that appears unhealthy.

Now, HBO appears more concerned with scoring diversity points than preserving the legacy of the character or staying true to the original author’s vision.

HBO announced the casting of British actor Paapa Essiedu as Severus Snape in its upcoming “Harry Potter” television series.

Variety reported:

The cast now includes the following series regulars: John Lithgow (“Conclave,” “The Crown”) as Albus Dumbledore, Janet McTeer (“Tumbleweeds,” “The White Queen”) as Minerva McGonagall, Paapa Essiedu (“I May Destroy You,” “Gangs of London”) as Severus Snape, and Nick Frost (“Shaun of the Dead,” “Hot Fuzz”) as Rubeus Hagrid. It had previously been reported that all four actors were in talks for the show.

In addition, Luke Thallon (Tom Stoppard’s “Leopoldstadt,” Rupert Goold’s “Patriots”) has joined in the recurring role of Quirinus Quirrell. Paul Whitehouse (“The Fast Show,” “Harry & Paul”) will appear in the recurring role of Argus Filch.

HBO has just confirmed the first 6 cast members for the ‘HARRY POTTER’ TV series:

HBO’s decision comes amid growing backlash against the entertainment industry’s obsession with race-swapping established characters.

From Ariel in Disney’s The Little Mermaid to Snow White, studios seem determined to prioritize political correctness over storytelling integrity.

It can be recalled that President Trump appointed renowned actors Jon Voight, Mel Gibson, and Sylvester Stallone as Special Ambassadors to Hollywood to restore Hollywood to its former glory.

This comes after Hollywood has increasingly become a breeding ground for radical leftist ideologies, pushing “woke” agendas.

Damning information regarding the MS-13 gangster from El Salvador adored by Democrats and the corporate media continues to pile up. Now, a news outlet has uncovered perhaps the most infuriating news yet regarding the individual.

The Tennessee Star broke an explosive story on Wednesday, revealing that Kilmar Abrego Garcia was allegedly accused of engaging in human trafficking by a Tennessee Highway Patrol (THP) officer back in December 2022 and detained by the officer. The cop allegeds the gangster was transporting seven passengers from Texas to Maryland.

The officer also discovered Abrego Garcia did not have a valid driver’s license. He then detained the illegal.

After the officer took Abrego Garcia into custody, the THP contacted the FBI, asking what to do next. Joe Biden’s FBI unsurprisingly ordered the THP to let Abrego Garcia walk free because they valued violent illegals more than innocent Americans. THP then complied with the order.

But the news gets even worse. It turns out that not only was Abrego Garcia likely trafficking fellow human beings, but he was reportedly on a TERRORIST WATCH LIST at the time.

Yes, the Biden regime ordered the THP to let a possible terrorist walk free!

From The Tennessee Star:

One source told The Star that THP ultimately discovered Abrego Garcia was on a terrorist watch list, but could not locate Abrego Garcia on a deportation list. Another source told The Star that THP did not discover Abrego Garcia on a terrorist watch list but that another one of the seven passengers in the vehicle may have been on a terrorist watch list.

THP subsequently called the FBI, which was then led by former Director Christopher Wray under the Biden administration. The FBI instructed the THP officers at the scene to capture photographs of all eight people in the vehicle and document its contents.

Once the photographs were captured, this source told The Star that the FBI requested THP release all eight individuals and that the THP officers complied with this request.

As TGP readers know, the Trump administration recently sent Kilmer Abrego Garcia, who illegally entered America in 2011, back to his home country. The administration cited two court rulings that found that he was an MS-13 gang member. This made him a designated foreign terrorist and an El Salvadorian citizen who was in the United States illegally.

The Supreme Court has ordered the Trump administration to ‘facilitate‘ Abrego Garcia’s return. This ruling came after an Obama judge demanded the administration not just “facilitate” but also “effectuate</>” the man’s return.

However, Abrego Garcia remains in El Salvador despite the Supreme Court ruling because the country’s president, Nayib Bukele, has ruled out shipping him back to America.

A federal judge in the Eastern District of Virginia has ruled that tech giant Google illegally monopolized key sectors of the digital advertising market, finding the company guilty of violating the Sherman Antitrust Act.

It can be recalled that Google demonetized The Gateway Pundit from their ad network back in 2021 for reporting on the COVID-19 vaccines and the stolen election.

The Gateway Pundit has an outstanding record of accurately reporting the top news stories of the day.  Because of our continued success and our honest conservative bent, we are regularly censored, shadowbanned, and banned by the tech giants.

Now, after a three-week bench trial involving extensive testimony and evidence, the court concluded that Google had willfully acquired and maintained monopoly power in both the open-web display publisher ad server market and the open-web display ad exchange market.

US District Judge Leonie Brinkema also found that Google had illegally tied its dominant publisher ad server (DFP) and ad exchange (AdX) products together—further stifling competition and crushing smaller competitors.

Seventeen states joined the Department of Justice in this antitrust suit, arguing that Google’s actions have “substantially harmed” the digital ad ecosystem, small publishers, and ultimately, everyday American consumers by driving up prices and restricting innovation.

The court’s 115-page opinion meticulously laid out how Google used its control over multiple layers of the ad tech stack to choke off competitors and steer business toward its own services—including Google AdX and DFP, now forcibly integrated as part of its Google Ad Manager product.

“Google further entrenched its monopoly power by imposing anticompetitive policies on its customers and eliminating desirable product features,” US District Judge Leonie Brinkema wrote in the ruling.

“In addition to depriving rivals of the ability to compete, this exclusionary conduct substantially harmed Google’s publisher customers, the competitive process, and, ultimately, consumers of information on the open web. Accordingly, Google is liable under Sections 1 and 2 of the Sherman Act,” Brinkema added.

Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890 is a federal statute that prohibits activities that restrict interstate commerce and competition in the marketplace. It outlaws any contract , conspiracy , or combination of business interests in restraint of foreign or interstate trade.

In an attempt to dodge accountability, Google had earlier tried to moot the DOJ’s damages claim by writing a $2.3 million check — a move the court allowed, stripping the case of its jury trial and leaving only equitable relief on the table. But the court’s findings still deliver a devastating blow to the tech behemoth.

The next phase of the litigation will determine what remedies will be imposed — including possible forced divestitures of Google’s ad tools and restrictions on its business practices.

Guest Post by Pro-life Leader Frank Pavone, National Director, Priests for Life

The second Trump Administration continues to be one of “Promises Made, Promises Kept” not the least of which regards religion. Since the start of his first presidential campaign in 2015, President Trump has insisted on what the Founders knew well: this Republic was established for a moral and religious people. Part of making and keeping America great is keeping religion and the voice of the Churches loud and clear.

Not only has President Trump taken unprecedented policy action domestically and internationally to protect the religious freedom of every citizen – recognizing it not only as a Constitutional right but also as a basic human right – but he has also specifically strengthened the freedom of clergy to preach their message in the pulpits – even as it regards politics — without fear of government retribution.

As I’ve said many times, President Trump has done more to encourage the clergy to raise their voices than have most of our Catholic bishops and other religious leaders.

And that brings us to Holy Week, marked this year by a unique series of events hosted at the White House – special messages, dinners, and religious services.

As we see the President highlighting the significance of Holy Week, and indeed in his message proclaiming the Gospel of Christ, we should note three dimensions of what is going on.

First, as President of the United States, he is affirming – as I mentioned above — that America needs religion. The sovereignty of God is the basis of our freedom. If it is God alone to whom we are each accountable, then no human being or human institution (including any government or government agency) can be our slave master or tyrant.

Making public proclamations about the importance of religious observances that are so meaningful to the vast majority of Americans is simply good Presidential practice.

Second, the President and First Lady are proclaiming their own faith. They are Christians. The events of this week are events in whose significance they believe.

For a President, or any public official, to proclaim his or her faith is perfectly consistent with the Constitution and with its guarantee that any American can profess whatever faith they choose, or no faith at all. Freedom means freedom, whether it is to choose our faith, to be quiet about it, or to proclaim it from the rooftops.

And third, the President’s special focus on the events of these holy days is part of cleaning up the filth through which we have suffered the last four years and in previous Democrat regimes as well. The Democrat Party has proven itself to be an enemy of religious freedom. They are the party of mandates that violate the consciences of believers (whether by closing Churches during pandemics, forcing vaccines against one’s religious values, or – as I had to fight all the way to the Supreme Court – trying to force employers to include objectionable drugs and services in health insurance plans for their employees.)

But the time for that is over. President Trump and his Administration are cleaning house, rooting out corruption, and restoring sanity.

America is back. Saying Merry Christmas or Happy Easter is back. More importantly, the freedom to live according to what we say – not only in Church but at work – is also back.

I’ve always said that I don’t necessarily need a President who lives by my Faith. I need a President who will protect my right to live my faith.

Beyond a doubt, that’s who we have in President Trump.

A Blessed Holy Week to all!

El Salvador’s Terrorism Confinement Center (CECOT). Photo courtesy of La Nación.

The recent deportation of MS-13 gang member and Salvadoran citizen Kilmar Ábrego García, whose gang affiliation invalidated his U.S. residency, has drawn attention to the Salvadoran prison where he is now being held. El Salvador’s Terrorism Confinement Center (CECOT) is the brainchild of President Nayib Bukele, who operated on the premise that anyone bearing gang tattoos was likely a member, since non-gang-members with gang tattoos were often killed by gang members. Bukele tasked his police and military forces with rounding up known gang members and domestic terrorists, many of whom are now locked away in this ultra-secure facility.

Since the crackdown began in March 2022, El Salvador’s murder rate has dropped from 52 per 100,000 people in 2018 to just 2.4 per 100,000 in 2023. The country, once considered one of the most dangerous in Latin America, is now ranked among the safest in the region.

There have been some foreign nationals sent there as well, including deportees from the United States and more are expected. However, these are individuals believed to be gang members or affiliated with transnational criminal networks, not ordinary visa overstayers or migrants. Claims that all deportees are being locked up in CECOT are factually incorrect.

In early 2023, President Nayib Bukele unveiled the Centro de Confinamiento del Terrorismo (CECOT), a massive maximum-security facility in Tecoluca designed to dismantle the operations of El Salvador’s most dangerous gangs. With a capacity of up to 40,000 inmates, it is the largest prison in the Western Hemisphere and a centerpiece of Bukele’s broader anti-gang campaign launched under a state of exception declared in March 2022 after a sharp spike in homicides.

CECOT was built with one purpose: to isolate individuals with confirmed or suspected ties to violent criminal networks such as MS-13, Barrio 18, and the Venezuelan-born El Tren de Aragua. These organizations—designated as terrorist groups by the United States—are not ordinary gangs but transnational threats. Accordingly, detainees are treated not merely as criminals, but as domestic terrorists.

Since the crackdown began, Salvadoran authorities have arrested over 75,000 suspected affiliates. By targeting leadership and cutting communication lines, the government has effectively dismantled the structure that once allowed gangs to extort, traffic, and kill with impunity. CECOT plays a central role in this strategy, ensuring that high-risk offenders are locked down and unable to direct criminal activity from behind bars—a key flaw of the country’s previous prison system.

In Latin America, many prisons are effectively controlled by organized crime. CECOT, by contrast, remains fully under government authority. Located in a remote region near the San Vicente volcano, 75 kilometers from San Salvador, it is physically and technologically cut off from the outside world. There is no internet or cell service in or around the facility, and signal-blocking extends for 1.5 miles in every direction. There are no phone calls, no visits, and no messages—prisoners are completely isolated. This eliminates any possibility of coordinating gang activity beyond the walls.

Surveillance is total. The prison spans 57 acres and is surrounded by two 9-meter-high concrete walls topped with barbed wire, electrified fences, and gravel flooring designed to amplify footfalls. Nineteen guard towers provide full perimeter visibility. Inside, each of the 256 cells—each housing an average of 156 inmates—is monitored around the clock with CCTV and armed oversight from lattice ceilings. Guards live on-site, are rotated regularly, and their identities are concealed to prevent intimidation or retaliation against their families. Everyone entering the prison, including staff, is subject to physical searches and X-ray scans, reducing opportunities for contraband smuggling and corruption.

Movement inside the facility is minimal. Inmates are shackled and bent at the waist during transfers, allowed only 30 minutes a day for exercise, Bible study, or virtual hearings. High-risk individuals may be held in solitary confinement for up to 15 days in pitch-black cells with a concrete bed and a single ceiling hole for light. The majority of inmates spend 23.5 hours a day in overcrowded cells, with up to 80 people in less than one square meter of space each. There are no mattresses, no utensils, and no educational or recreational programs. Meals are served directly on the floor. The goal is not rehabilitation, but containment.

To prevent any chance of inmate control or rebellion, guards maintain overwhelming dominance. The facility is staffed by 600 soldiers, 250 police officers, and a riot intervention squad—over 1,000 personnel in total. Hooded guards armed with rifles enforce discipline. Inmates are forbidden from making eye contact with anyone, must wear white uniforms, and have their heads shaved to strip away individuality. Psychological control is further maintained through constant artificial lighting and verbal degradation. Many detainees are facing sentences that stretch for centuries or are held without trial under the ongoing state of exception. The government has made it clear: most of them will never leave.

Since its opening in January 2023, no escape attempts or prison riots have been reported. The level of control inside CECOT makes it one of the most secure prisons in the Western Hemisphere.

Despite what the mainstream media would have you believe, CECOT is not a detention center for migrants or individuals deported for minor offenses. It is a facility designed to isolate those considered serious threats due to criminal affiliations. Bukele’s strategy is brutally simple: if you lock up the gang members and make prison a place no one wants to end up, crime goes down. First, because the criminals are behind bars. Second, because no one wants to join a gang if it means ending up in a facility like CECOT.

The strict discipline and surveillance measures at CECOT are not excesses—they are necessary to prevent it from becoming yet another gang-run prison, as is common across much of Latin America. While international NGOs, liberal commentators, foreign media, and academic circles have voiced criticism, the results are hard to dispute: violence in El Salvador has plummeted. The critics had decades to offer a better solution. They didn’t, and still haven’t. Bukele acted and crime dropped.

Kaiserslautern Train Station via Flickr

In a shocking verdict that speaks volumes about the state of justice in Western Europe, a young American woman living in Germany has been convicted of manslaughter, receiving a two-year suspended sentence, for fatally stabbing a 64-year-old Eritrean migrant who sexually assaulted her in broad daylight.

The female sexual assault victim, identified as Fallyn B., was just 20 years old at the time of the attack. She was groped on an escalator by the migrant at Kaiserslautern Central Station, an area increasingly plagued by migrant-related crime, the German newspaper Die Zeit reported.

According to surveillance footage and eyewitness reports, the African migrant grabbed her buttocks without consent—an act the German court acknowledged was indeed criminal. He then followed her as she walked through the underpass to the train station and attempted to grope her again.

But when she defended herself, pulling a pocketknife during the altercation and delivering a single stab to his chest, which unfortunately for the attacker proved to be fatal, German authorities turned her from victim into perpetrator.

After fleeing the station in a panic and texting a friend, “I think I just killed someone,” Fallyn later turned herself in. She had no intention to kill, according to expert testimony, and broke down in court over the tragedy.

The judge presiding over the case condemned her act of self-defense as unlawful, saying: “If you are no longer in an emergency situation, you become the attacker yourself.” This, even though she was the one who was assaulted. Even though she tried to walk away. Even though she feared for her life.

Her defense argued that she was terrified, overwhelmed, and acted out of raw fear. Witnesses said she yelled “Don’t touch me!” during the attack. The court even heard from psychologists who described Fallyn as emotionally fragile, with a history of childhood trauma, bullying, and abuse.

But none of that mattered in the eyes of a European justice system that increasingly bends over backward to accommodate migrants, while punishing the very people harmed by them.

Born to American military parents stationed at the Ramstein airbase in Germany, she was raised in an unstable environment and had struggled with mental health issues, substance abuse, and depression.

As for the East African migrant she defended herself against—identified as Alem T.—he was already known to authorities for a prior history of sexual offenses. In 2024 alone, he had been fined in four separate cases of sexual harassment. Yet his past behavior was effectively ignored by the court, which ruled that the young woman “became the attacker” once she pulled the knife.

This week, a court sentenced her to a two-year suspended youth sentence, along with 500 hours of community service and mandatory drug counseling. She will serve no jail time, due to her age at the time of the altercation and clean record. But make no mistake: the message is clear. In modern Germany, women are not allowed to defend themselves if their attacker checks the right boxes.

This case is yet another glaring example of what happens when globalist policies and open borders collide with real life. A young American woman was assaulted by a man who had no business walking the streets of Germany—and when she fought back, she was condemned and is now paying the legal consequences.

This isn’t just a German problem. It’s a Western European problem. This is what happens when progressive governments place more value on protecting their immigration narrative than on defending their own citizens, especially women.

It also raises serious questions about the safety of Americans living abroad, particularly in nations where self-defense is viewed not as a right, but a privilege, and one not often extended to women defending themselves against foreign aggressors from alien cultures.

Fallyn B. is alive today, luckily—but forever marked by a justice system that punished her for surviving.

By Wayne Allyn Root

Look around. No one wants the latest Covid-19 booster. Do you know why?

It’s the dirtiest secret in America.

The mainstream media won’t tell you this. But everyone who isn’t blind, deaf, dumb, delusional or in complete denial, knows someone who was perfectly healthy, got the Covid jab, and dropped dead.

If they’re being honest, everyone knows a dozen people- friends, relatives, co-workers, neighbors, or fellow church-goers- who have been injured, crippled, disabled, or immune damaged since they took the Covid jab.

Millions of Americans regret taking the Covid jab. And they regret believing the lies, fraud, and propaganda of big government, Big Pharma and the mainstream media- who all profited by lying, exaggerating and covering up the truth.

But no one regrets refusing the Covid jab.

Not one person in America wishes they had listened to greedy government, greedy Big Pharma, greedy doctors and greedy media (who was paid off by Big Pharma ads, stock options, and government bribes).

All anyone who refused the Covid jab says nowadays is, “Thank God I did not take it.”

And that goes triple, or quadruple for all 77 million Trump voters. All of us either refused the Covid jab, or wishes we had refused. We all know this experimental, emergency-use only jab was a deadly disaster.

And we all want to hear President Trump take action to prevent further death, injury and immune damage.

So, here are three simple, easy, reasonable, moderate things that President Trump can do to help make things better…

First, President Trump can issue an Executive Order removing the Covid vaccine and boosters from the childhood vaccine schedule. Simple. Not extreme. Reasonable, moderate, easy to do.

And the right thing to do.

President Trump has been a guest on my TV and radio shows 16 times. We agree on 99.9% of everything- except the Covid jab. But he agrees with me that no one should have ever been forced to take it, and no child ever needed it, nor should any child take it.

No healthy child in America has ever died from Covid. There is no reason to risk death, myocarditis, heart attacks, strokes, immune disorders, blood clots, or immune damage for a simple virus that won’t kill anyone who is young and healthy.

But a well-known doctor recently announced that over nine million American children have taken the Covid booster because it’s on the childhood vaccine schedule.

This is madness.

Not one of them needed it. Not one of them will benefit in any way. Not one of them was at risk of dying from Covid. But many will have their immune systems damaged, and their lives ruined from the vaccine. Many will die prematurely.

Mr. President, in the words of Ronald Reagan, tear down that childhood vaccine schedule requirement!

Secondly, Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders just signed a law making the miracle drug Ivermectin available without prescription, over the counter, in any pharmacy in Arkansas. Bravo. Brilliant.

President Trump should issue an Executive Order doing the exact same thing nationwide.

Ivermectin is recognized as the “Gold Standard” to treat not only Covid 19, but any virus. It is a miraculous immune booster. It’s been used by hundreds of millions and its safe, with literally no side effects.

Exhibit A. Covid hit one province in India very hard. The government chose not to use the Covid-19 jab. Instead, they gave everyone in this province of 200 million citizens Ivermectin and the vitamins I just listed above. Covid was wiped out in two weeks. Gone. Disappeared. No more death, hospitalizations, or serious illness.

Exhibit B. Me. Wayne Allyn Root. I got Covid two weeks before my wedding in 2021. I took Ivermectin and mega doses of vitamins- including Intravenous Vitamin C. Covid was dramatically better in 24 hours and completely gone in 48 hours. I saved my own wedding!

No one EVER needed the Covid jab, or its dangerous and deadly side effects.

Ivermectin and vitamins would have ended the Covid pandemic in weeks, or perhaps days, with little or no death.

But instead of using Ivermectin to end the pandemic, the CDC, FDA, AMA, WHO and our own government conspired to demonize Ivermectin in the media and tried to ban pharmacies from issuing it. They did that because if they admitted Ivermectin worked effectively against Covid-19, Big Pharma could never have gotten experimental, emergency-use authorization for the deadly disastrous Covid jab. And Big Pharma would never have made hundreds of billions of dollars.

They knew Ivermectin worked, but they banned it to make more money. Millions died because of their greed. That’s called fraud and mass murder.

President Trump, with the stroke of a pen, needs to make Ivermectin available without prescription, over the counter, in any pharmacy in America.

Finally, President Trump needs to ask his HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to do the simplest and most transparent thing in the world…

Publicly announce the ingredients in the Covid jab and the side effects each ingredient causes. Then let the American people decide if they ever want a Covid jab again, or if they want their children to get the jab, once they hear the side effects.

We all know what their decision will be, once they hear the facts….

Everyone in America- except the most radical, insane, brainwashed, delusional liberals- will choose to never again let the Covid mRNA jab anywhere near themselves, their children, or anyone they love.

And President Trump will be loved, respected, appreciated and wildly popular for taking these three simple, easy, reasonable, moderate actions.

In one of the most disgraceful media appearances of the year, far-left activist masquerading as a “journalist” Taylor Lorenz got absolutely dismantled by Fox News host Sean Hannity after she glorified accused murderer Luigi Mangione on CNN—and refused, multiple times, to condemn assassination attempts against Donald Trump and Elon Musk.

Appearing on CNN over the weekend, Lorenz joyfully discussed Luigi Mangione — a disturbing icon to the radical Left who assassinated a husband and father. Yet, Lorenz gushed about the killer’s ‘appeal,’ even claiming that some women saw him as ‘morally good,’ ‘handsome,’ ‘intelligent,’ and ‘revolutionary.’

“Here’s this man who’s a revolutionary, who’s famous, who’s handsome, who’s young, who’s smart, he’s a person who seems like he’s this morally good man, which is hard to find,” Lorenz teased in a snippet that was shared on X.

— Donie O’Sullivan (@donie) April 13, 2025

On Wednesday, Sean Hannity delivered a brutal takedown of Taylor Lorenz in a fiery segment that exposed the radical left’s moral rot and dangerous flirtation with political violence.

From the very first minute, he confronted Lorenz over her sickening double-speak, demanding to know how any human being with a conscience could express “joy” at a man’s assassination simply because they dislike the U.S. healthcare system.

Lorenz squirmed, deflected, and played semantic games, insisting she wasn’t expressing joy over the killing — just joy that the “brutality of the health care system” was finally being acknowledged.

In a shocking and revealing back-and-forth, Lorenz repeatedly refused to denounce left-wing extremists calling for the assassination of former President Donald Trump and tech entrepreneur Elon Musk. Instead of condemning it, she ranted about “systemic violence” in the healthcare industry — a total dodge that exposed her twisted worldview.

When asked point-blank whether people who cheer on murderers are lacking a soul or conscience, Lorenz responded coldly, “I don’t believe in religious things like souls.”

At one point, Hannity demanded clarity, “Do you condemn the people who tried to assassinate Donald Trump? Or would it be a good thing in your mind? Or would you understand why people want to kill him?”

Lorenz again refused to condemn political violence outright. Instead, she accused Hannity of trying to “rationalize away” her perspective and insisted she’s merely covering “extremism.”

WATCH:

Taylor Lorenz has officially exposed herself—not just as a radical ideologue—but as someone so morally bankrupt, so obsessed with her progressive crusade, that she cannot even say the words “I condemn murder” without qualification.

Sean Hannity showed America exactly what happens when dangerous leftist propaganda meets moral clarity. And no matter how many times Lorenz tried to wriggle out of accountability, the truth was undeniable: glorifying violence, romanticizing killers, and failing to denounce attempted assassinations of political figures isn’t journalism—it’s extremism.

The American people are watching, and they’re disgusted.
