We report what’s happening, name who’s responsible, and refuse to pretend “both sides” framing applies when one side is stripping people of their rights. Our coverage is direct and morally engaged. We don’t perform neutrality on questions like whether people deserve due process or whether children belong in cages. Fascism is not a policy disagreement.
