Q&A

  • What was the significance of the third anniversary of the Afghanistan withdrawal?

    The anniversary marked a solemn day for the country, as it commemorated the deaths of 13 American service members during the botched withdrawal. It also highlighted the political ramifications of the event, with former President Trump criticizing the Biden administration's handling of the situation.

  • What is the latest on the investigation into the attempted assassination of former President Trump?

    The investigation has been shrouded in secrecy, with congressional investigators expressing frustration over the FBI's lack of cooperation. They are particularly concerned about the lack of information about the shooter's motive and the FBI's decision to release the shooter's body for cremation before an autopsy or toxicology report was made public.

  • Why is trust in traditional media declining?

    Polling data shows that trust in traditional media is at a record low, particularly among Republicans and independents. This decline is attributed to a perceived lack of fairness and accuracy in political coverage, with voters increasingly turning to independent media sources.
