Thats the truth they don’t want told.

Paramount-owned CBS abruptly canceled a story exposing the Trump administration's brutal deportations.
The reporter called it a "political decision."
Paramount needs Trump’s backing to buy Warner Bros. — including CNN.
Is that just a coincidence?
This looks like corruption.

Oregon officials have found the Mediterranean oak borer in six counties across the valley, just as another pest, the emerald ash borer, is killing ash trees in the region.
Oak-killing pest spreads through Willamette Valley, threatening native trees
Mediterranean oak borers are reddish-brown beetles native to Europe, western Asia and northern Africa. They are what entomologists call ambrosia beetles, meaning they bore into trees and introduce fungi that ultimately kill trees.
