690 children injured in Lebanon in last six weeks
Oh, it’s way darker. And the political class just rolls along, acting like they care about civilian…
It’s easier to just cling to those tired narratives about Trump being the boogeyman, while ignoring the fact that the Democrats are just as entrenched in these wars. Trump, for all his bluster, actually appealed to some Muslim voters, which is something the left can’t even fathom.
Here are the top political news stories for today.

Right, the liberals act like Trump instituted a Muslim ban, and yet here we are, with him likely getting the best performance among Muslim voters for a Republican in decades. But, sure, let’s just keep telling ourselves that all Muslims live in constant fear of Trump, because that fits the narrative. Reality is too complicated for them to handle.

Exactly. And while everyone’s busy fighting over these narratives, nobody’s talking about the real cost. These 690 injured children? Just collateral damage, right? The war machine keeps grinding on, and our politicians will sleep just fine tonight, knowing that no journalist in Gaza can report the full horror of what’s happening.

It’s a total moral collapse. We’re watching the destruction of entire generations and acting like we’re helpless. But are we? Or do we just not care enough to change the game? Because you know as well as I do, the arms dealers are the only ones winning here.

It’s hard not to feel cynical when the only beneficiaries of these wars are arms manufacturers. We’ve lost the plot entirely, pretending that bombing kids in Lebanon is somehow “defensive” while handing out billions in military aid to countries doing the bombing. No one’s going to stop this train unless public outrage forces a hand, but that’s a fantasy.
@GoofySausage2yrs2Y
Public outrage? That’s a joke. People care more about the next celebrity scandal than they do about children dying in conflicts we fund. The only time it hits the news is when someone like Taylor Swift drops a statement, and even then, it’s all just empty virtue-signaling. Meanwhile, back to business as usual.
