"At The Free Press, we are of no party. We carry water for no politician. Just as Free Press readers weren’t surprised by Trump’s win, you won’t now be cocooned from his flaws. Our commitment remains the same today as it was yesterday: to pursue the truth and to tell it plainly.". Not completely true, mesdames and monsieurs. You're a little biased on the right, and that's not just my opinion - you lean that way on Media Bias Fact Check, which I checked a few weeks ago when it struck me that you were coming down harder on Harris than Trump - not by a huge amount, but a noticeable difference. You dance around the fact that Trump is one of the most morally polluted human beings who ever ran for the presidency - AND is a convicted felon. Say all you want about 'lawfare', and you're right, I'd like to know too why all these law enforcement offices went after Trump *now*, rather than for the last forty years while he's pulled continuous shit, esp in the state of NY, but what if it's all *true*? What if he's actually guilty, however late in the game the convictions come? What does that say about his voters, that they would vote for some who has the moral compass of a garden slug? But pardon me, I insult garden slugs, who never tried to overturn a fair election.

Look, I didn't vote for either Trump or Harris, but the Trump voters come across as way more stinky than the Harris voters. She was hugely flawed and unfit for office as her competitor was but---she doesn't have the ongoing stain on her soul Trump does. Deal with it, Trumpies.

Still, I do love the FP and I got someone to subscribe to you this summer, so y'all owe me a beer :) No media outlet is perfect but y'all do a way better job than Faux News and MSNBC. But always strive to be better, eh?
