President Biden was criticized by John Avlon, CNN’s senior political analyst, for calling the Republican Party “semi-fascist.” This criticism comes as CNN executives allegedly pressure the network’s hosts to concentrate on unbiased news reporting. “The term semi-fascist is not helpful,” Avlon said on CNN’s “New Day.” “It’s not befitting the office of president.” “You can absolutely call out the dangers to our democracy, but it makes obviously perfect sense for someone like Sen. Hassan, because look, in New Hampshire, more than 40% of registered voters are independent,” Avlon noted. “Another 30-and-change are Republicans. Democrats are the third category among registered…
