    The electoral college is one of the flaws I would like to see fixed. We should abolish the electoral college. It disproportionally benefits Republicans because they control more land, as you said. Representative democracy is supposed to represent the majority of people not a minority.

    I read a variety of what the free press has to offer about China. Xi has clearly consolidated power around him. It’s not a secret.

          While the Sandler Foundation provided ProPublica with significant financial support, it also has received funding from the Knight Foundation, MacArthur Foundation, Pew Charitable Trusts, Ford Foundation, the Carnegie Corporation, and the Atlantic Philanthropies.

              Can’t find anything about funding right now, and I’m tired. But I do know they routinely publish articles inconsistent with the values of their namesake.

              But I need to go to bed. Ive been doing this all day.

                I don’t see why you feel the need to be so picky. Any story can be cross referenced from multiple sources. Regardless, we can always argue later. Please get sleep. =)
