Classer LFI à l’extrême gauche, c’est confondre radicalité et extrémisme

But I need look no further than the @minnesotareformer.com.

Stenography as journalism is guiding us straight into hell
it's bizarre to see both CNN and CNBC run with chyrons reporting that Trump said he won't "use force" to take Greenland, when the comments in question were clearly a threat to take Greenland by force. How naive are we at this point?
