    I saw a lot of headlines on this one over the weekend, but this isn't one I can spend my outrage on. Voice of America had an historic role and even after its moment had perhaps passed, it was still a good voice for western democratic principles. But at the end of the day, I still see it as state-controlled media. Let's say I'd be happier to see Trump close it than to see him leverage it.

    Because Trump is a Russian stooge.

    Curious why?

    Because it was spreading “diversity”, “inclusion”, “women right”, “human rights”, “freedom to practice any religion”… type of messages? Or something else….
