Now that President Donald Trump has given his speech for unity, how will the news media view his administration? Will they still aggressively check and provide the facts to the public?

It is up to the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives, and the judiciary, to protect our democracy, our country and the American people. The stakes are high.
