Younger adults consistently place lower importance than older adults on several of these civic duties – especially following the news.

The BBC was right about the Capitol riots. In a sane world, Trump would be in jail The US President faced impeachment over the violence, and in a world where Republicans had more courage, he would have been found guilty

The BBC is apologising for its Panorama edit. It shouldn’t. First, the narrative is true: Donald Trump *did* incite the Capitol riot. Second, the apology won’t appease those attacking it. So why not at least stand for something?

Wrote this on it earlier this week:

We should defend the values and effort at accuracy of the BBC in a Trumpian world of wilful inaccuracy and hypocrisy, but this seems on the face of it to be an excessive response to a politically motivated attack

This is the most abysmal, pathetic thing. The BBC head resigning because the corporation is not supine *enough* to the far-right.

Trump administration uses misleading videos to portray chaos, push deportations Official videos purporting to show the triumph of recent immigration operations used footage that was years old or recorded thousands of miles away, a Washington Post analysis found.

Scoop: The Trump admin's videos boasting triumphs on immigration have used misleading footage from months ago or thousands of miles away

When we showed them the errors, DHS said they make a lot of videos and the White House said it'll keep making "banger memes"
