Horrible. When I added this and searched for "News", the first 2 websites shown were the One News Network (a far right wing extremist misinformation website) and The Epoch Times, another far right misinformation "news" website. Both strongly support Pres. Trump and his conspiracy lies.

Error code: PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR
The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
