WIKIPEDIA

— Media bias in the United States (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly the mainstream news media in America unprofessionally, unethically, falsely, if not illegally claims to be nonpartisan. Ever-increasingly, the mainstream news media a) promotes the Democrat, Libertarian, and Green party platforms and b) demonizes, denigrates, and condemns the Republican Party platform. Ever-increasingly, it a) glorifies and praises liberal Democrat candidates, elected officials, and party leaders and b) demonizes, denigrates, and condemns conservative Republican candidates, elected officials, and party leaders. Ever-increasingly, the mainstream news media tells voters what criteria they should use to pick candidates to vote for. Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. I am conservative. I do not claim to be nonpartisan. I promote the Republican Party platform.)

Thousands of individuals, including some CEOs, have faced discrimination for their beliefs or have been even terminated from their companies by activist co-workers and shareholders out of non-compliance with the newly dominant elite ideology.)

— Abortion battle sparks influx of interest — and money — in state Supreme Court races – MELISSA QUINN
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/roe-v-wade-abortion-state-supreme-courts-midterm-elections-november-2022/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In Illinois, meanwhile, there are two competitive judicial races this year after the state redrew its district boundaries for the seven-member Supreme Court. While Democrats have held a four-seat majority for nearly two decades, the state Supreme Court could flip with the new map in place this year, Faleschini said. The Illinois Supreme Court has recognized the right to an abortion under the state constitution, but a change in its makeup could lead to a court fight that abortion rights advocates fear could jeopardize access. Such a step, Faleschini said, would not only have ramifications for Illinois patients, but also those in neighboring states who turn to Illinois for abortion services due to limits where they live. “Illinois has an outsized role in the Midwest of continuing to keep abortion access somewhat accessible for the Midwest,” he said.)
