Even if those were true -- and I don't believe they are -- Washington Times authors and the Daily Mail are terrible sources to prove it.

DailyMail tends to have some of the more accurate reporting. They always cite their content (unlike say, CNN - go check, they always self-reference).

You can see the letters in the article. I don’t know what to say, it’s clearly there. Same with the news broadcast on NBC, watched it live just searched a video and Twitter popped up).

> DailyMail tends to have some of the more accurate reporting.

You're joking, right? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daily_Mail#Reliability

That all looks political to me... I'll stick with reviewing content with citations (and reviewing associated citations). Wikipedia is fairly partisan.

Thus far, as stated, it's clear to me DailyMail provides more citations I can use to confirm the data myself. I guess to your point, I don't believe them, the New York Times, NPR, NBC, etc unless I can confirm the data myself.

Wikipedia isn't exactly an unbiased source of information, either.

Any chance the first link is fake?

How would the first link be fake? lmao

I watched it live so I don’t believe so.

The video about dhs issuing a statement? I think this may be what they were referring to. https://www.dhs.gov/ntas/advisory/national-terrorism-advisor...
