1. Flynn lied and was fired. Yes. But separate from that the NSA discovered that there were numerous contacts between Trump's campaign staff and Russian intelligence officials as early as Spring 2016. Currently journalists don't know the context of these discussions - but it's worth looking into for reasons of national security. Especially when we know (note, not opinion) that Russia intentionally interfered to elect Trump. Trump not taking a stance against this is alarming because an American president is essentially saying "Oh it's okay if other countries meddle in our elections". Not good. I'm not questioning the legitimacy of his election.

2. I think you're confusing op-ed pieces with investigative journalism and reporting. Most news outlets have opt-ed and even humor sections. That's different than reporting.

3. Saying "libbers" don't care about education, healthcare, jobs, and equal opportunity is ABSURD. You can find this easily if you even didn't try to look. I'm shocked.
