 killing civilians in foreign conflicts to a new level, writes Murtaza Hussain.

Trump tried to use a super-secret computer network to cover up his Ukraine call

 Trump Attacked the Women of Color Who Led the Push for Impeachment. Then CNN 
Erased Them.
Natasha Lennard 

Instead, CNN promoted a group of white women who came late to impeachment as

 Civilian Deaths in U.S. Wars Are Skyrocketing Under Trump. It May Not Be

Murtaza Hussain

not least his role in the violent deaths of thousands of innocent people.
