I’ve tried removing this for weeks. No luck so far. WTF? Forced Brainwashing. It’s inconceivable that this is unintentional

Forced brainwashing from an iPad app? Get a grip. If it's tearing you up so bad then delete the app for God's sake. Or at least quit using it.

My reaction was to the "forced brainwashing" commentary, not a simple request on editing content.
There is no way to do it - it is a pinned topic. This has come up in a variety of ways regarding the Apple News app as far back as 2016 -

Apple and Google have a love hate relationship going on.
Paying for the News+ service and seeing Google ads on top of that was another reason why I didn’t subscribe.
There's no way to disable news about politics and covid. Even though I'm clicking "suggest less like this" couple times a day, for weeks, or even months, whenever I open the News app, I see either Trump or pandemic as first couple news. I don't read these news on other services, so I don't know why Apple thinks I, or everyone else should be interested in these topics? Is there a way to stop this?
Apple News has been mediocre at best since the beginning.. Even if you block channels or content you still get articles that are on your block list.
I don't use it because of this. I don't want Apple's ideas of important news, especially political news.
Seems this is fixed in iOS14. Not a word about Trump, Covid or Racial Justice in my feed.
