The Federalist: Democrat Media Caused America's 'Misinformation Crisis'
Leftists often attribute their electoral defeats to a "misinformed" electorate, labeling many voters as "low-information." However, critics argue that the left itself perpetuates significant misinformation across various issues, including abortion, transgenderism, and crime.
Despite their claims of being data-driven, leftists are accused of ignoring or attacking dissenting research that contradicts their narratives. As public trust in corporate media and higher education declines, more Americans are turning to alternative sources for information, recognizing the left's role in the misinformation crisis.

The Federalist: UN 'Gender' Treaty Threatens Free Speech
President Biden has backed a new UN treaty that could criminalize opposition to transgender policies, labeling acts like misgendering as "gender-based persecution." The treaty aims to replace the established definition of gender in international law, raising concerns about free speech and religious freedoms.
Critics argue this broad definition could lead to the persecution of individuals who oppose gender ideology, potentially criminalizing a range of actions and beliefs. The implications could extend to regulating personal and societal norms, echoing totalitarian practices.

China has initiated an investigation into Nvidia for alleged anti-monopoly violations and breaches of commitments related to its 2020 acquisition of Mellanox Technologies. Following the announcement, Nvidia's shares fell amid escalating tensions between the US and China over semiconductor technology.

The Federalist: No, Fighting Wasteful Scams Isn’t 'Cutting' Medicare
The incoming Trump administration, led by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, faces scrutiny over its commitment to reducing waste in Medicare, particularly regarding Medicare Advantage plans for veterans. A Wall Street Journal investigation revealed that these plans often receive substantial payments while providing minimal care, as many veterans rely on the Department of Veterans Affairs for treatment.
To address this inefficiency, Congress could adjust funding formulas or authorize the VA to bill Medicare Advantage plans for non-military related care. With Medicare's insolvency looming and federal debt rising, it is crucial to eliminate wasteful spending in these programs, challenging entrenched interests in the process.
