Somehow I doubt it works out this way but a paper truly publishing only opinions in support of personal liberties and free markets would be publishing anti- Trump content every day

This is an absolute scandal. Trump and Marco Rubio abandoned American workers and their families abroad, delaying waivers to provide for their safe return to the United States. As these civil servants lost their possessions, housing, and money, Elon Musk was slandering them with bogus accusations.

DHS has terminated the memberships of everyone on its advisory committees. This includes several cyber committees, like CISA's advisory panel and the Cyber Safety Review Board, which was investigating Salt Typhoon. That review is "dead," person familiar says. www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...
