1/6/2021

"CNN’s Fareed Zakaria recently acknowledged 'the dirty little secret' that the Trump administration 'was pretty tough on the Russians. They armed Ukraine, they armed the Poles. They extended NATO operations and exercises in ways that even the Obama Administration had not done. They maintained the sanctions.'

Yet only the mainstream media have so far evaded tangible consequences, or real self-assessment, for their historic stumble." Read the report here.
