Trafficking in aborted foetuses, Open's wacky fact-checking debunked

Open, in agreement with Meta, brands the recent Nuova Bussola/Daily Compass article on videos showing the trafficking of aborted baby parts as fake news: videos which were also covered up by Kamala Harris.

The race for the White House, between age comparisons and teleprompter

If you look at the ages of the presidential candidates, there are similarities between 1984, when Reagan ran for re-election, and today.
