It is silly to compare Voice of America (an excellent journalistic institution with a great reputation), to the Washington Post (overall pretty good), to Russia Times (literal state propaganda). These are all very different sources and painting them with the same brush is just factually incorrect.
Here's some research for you:

As for your second point, Trump is still walking free and he tried to overthrow the government. These things apparently do happen.
You don't think critically about mediabiasfactcheck?
Voice of America was created to promote American propaganda, it's literally the US propaganda outlet. You're a shill.
I apparently think about it more critically than you do. All journalism is not propaganda; some is good in fact, and we can determine which is good and which is bad. And I at least have sources, whereas you have, uh... brain damage I guess?
Also that's a laughable and total misunderstanding of Voice of America's history, mission, and goals. It has a reputation basically everywhere as being as close to objective and reliable reporting as you can get outside the BBC. I guess you're just assuming it's bad based on its name, which is not great on the critical thinking front!
"Russian state owned media bad. British state owned media good."
No, we know it's bad because it's literally run by the US government.
