This man persists in calling President Trump's executive order a "Muslim ban." Donald Trump could prohibit all immigration and this ideologue would call it a "Muslim ban."

I oppose President Donald Trump and his band of advisers for using fear and lies to appeal to and motivate their base, but I am writing to spotlight a very real fear: their relentless attacks on the media.
Trump and the people who surround him consistently lie and put forth facts and figures that are almost immediately shown to be untrue. Examples abound, but his incorrect references to the rising crime rate and immigrants “pouring across the border” come to mind. They have their own set of “alternative facts” based on what Trump chooses to believe.
The administration is making concerted efforts to delegitimize the media by casting doubt on their work to investigate, call out the lies and misinformation and give us the facts. Although some people choose to ignore the lies, it is imperative that each one be exposed.
Facts are facts—there are no alternatives to them. A free and open press is a hallmark of a democracy, and this administration is moving toward making us a third-world country by disparaging the media and circumventing them through Twitter and administration spokespeople spewing lies.
This is truly something to fear.
