If "Democracy Dies in Darkness" why isn't the Washington Post screaming about the secret impeachment hearings?

With great fanfare the Washington Post rolled out its new motto, "Democracy Dies in Darkness" back in February 2017.

The idea was that Trump had colluded with Russia and that if the "truth" wasn't revealed then Democracy would die--ie Democrats wouldn't be able to control every aspect of your life.

Of course that turned out to be a big lie. The only thing going on in darkness was the attempted coup by unelected DC bureaucrats aided and abetted by #FakeNews organizations like the Washington Post.

We now know that the Washington Post is in fact a big fan of darkness so long as that darkness helps them impose their beliefs on we the people.

The Democrats are holding secret impeachment hearings denying not only we the people but the members of the House Judiciary Committee--you know the folks who would actually write any acts of impeachment--any insight into what is really going on.

In addition Democrats are saying that the "whistleblower" who started this whole bit of insanity can't be revealed now or ever. That is they're saying that Trump has no right to cross examine the person who, based on rumors, is accusing him of a crime.  The Democrats are also saying the voters who voted for Trump have no right to know who is trying to undo their votes.

Yet the Washington Post is staying silent.  If the Washington Post actually believed in its own motto it would be screaming bloody murder about the Democrats Star Chamber completely unAmerican witch hunt. Instead they're upset that Trump correctly referred to the Democrats process as a lynching; ie a mob acting outside the law trying to kill an election the results of which Democrats didn't like.

The reality is that the Washington Post's motto is in fact their mission statement. The Washington Post is working hard to increase the darkness so that democracy can die and be replaced by the authoritarian rule of the Democrats that the Washington Post so loves.

Like Democrats the Washington Post views Democrats as rulers not representatives who should control your life so that you don't do things that the Democrats know are wrong; like drive a car, fly in a plane, eat beef, use a straw, or drink too much soda.
