Herein lies an important question for our democracy:

Can the press/media do their job and cover three important stories at the same time: our invasion of VENEZUELA, DOJ’s missing the deadline to release the Epstein files and Jack Smith’s testimony as we head to the 5th anniversary of the January 6th insurrection?

We can’t allow them not to do so!

We saw that over 25 years ago with the coverage of the 2000 election and the Iraq war.

Seems like a very important situation over there. I don't watch much main stream news these days (other than clips online here and there), so for all I know it has been covered.

Regarding: Huge citizen protests against the Mullahs (not calling for the death to america, but to the religious regime)

Just seems like our current news industry can not chew gum while walking.
