Just in case you were wondering about the political orientation of Politico—here's its owner, Mattias Döpfner, in his flagship publication issuing an explicit endorsement of Trump's national strategic strategy and its harsh attacks on Europe. Döpfner is also a Peter Thiel fanboy from wayback.

He prefers MBS’s Saudi Arabia, where one trillionaire family runs a brutal dictatorship.

What a betrayal of American values!

I rarely sound alarm - but please: do not believe what you hear or read from the legacy outlets.

For US news - these either serve the WH by definition or are intimidated to serve (always their decision though)

For global news - US media spreads pro-RU, anti-EU views under “America First” label.
