Today's explanation for the Iran War (they shift by the minute) is that Israel was going to attack and so we had to as well. We were "forced" into war by Netanyahu.

That's the definition of weakness - being suckered into a war of choice that no American wants.

Interesting detail - Fox & Friends is hosted by the regular weekday hosts this morning not the weekend cast. How would Fox News have enough time to ask the regular cast to come in? The show starts at 6AM but they are usually there hours earlier.

there are a lot of people working in the government right now who want to intentionally trigger an apocalypse to create the conditions for the return of jesus christ and I know how crazy that sounds but its absolutely true

In case you’re just waking up, the U.S. has teamed up with Israel overnight to start an illegal war of regime change, apparently on a presidential whim with no involvement of Congress, and they are already committing horrific atrocities.

For the umpteenth time: Trump does not have the constitutional authority to do this. He doesn’t. But also for the umpteenth time: We do not have a Congress. We don’t.

Yea. Where is this woman?
Why won’t a reporter track her down? She was a public official overseeing a death in a public facility and should be forced to answer questions.

What Jared Kushner's 'New Gaza' plan includes, and what it leaves out Jared Kushner speaks after the signing of a Board of Peace charter during the annual meeting of the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Jan. 22. Evan Vucci/AP

Kushner’s New Gaza trades 2.2 million lives for 180 luxury towers and a Dubai-style skyline. It erases northern cities for data centers and pushes survivors into quadrants. It’s urban renewal via demolition, treating the area like a vacant lot. Gentrification has never looked so literal.

The whole system is untenable. If you don’t have paywalls, you rely on advertising. And if you rely on advertising, companies can say: hey- we don’t want you to publish/air that story.

The fact is: journalists cannot work for free, as you said. But what’s the way to pay them?

As horrid as the sex stuff is that captures all the attention, I wish Americans would understand it’s part of deeper transnational power plays. Yes, the Epstein / Maxwell headlines are abominable. But it goes *way deeper* and *both* political parties are in on it.
