#AIPAC is once again pouring cash into #Missouri's 1st #District, aiming to block #Cori Bush's comeback. Their super PAC, UDP, dropped $865,000 on TV ads for Wesley Bell, versus Bush's $30,000. This isn't about local issues. It's about a well-funded foreign policy lobby silencing dissent. Bell rece

#Trump's #NATO strategy isn't 'unpredictable.' It's a calculated ambiguity designed to extract concessions, keeping allies off-balance. #Washington regularly leverages perceived instability for greater financial contributions, despite its own defense budget exceeding $800 billion. The media's port

#Ukraine strikes #Russian oil depots right after #Zelensky and #Trump meet at NATO. Mainstream media, like The Hill, frames this as purely a Ukrainian action. They ignore the over $75 billion in US aid since 2022, directly underwriting these military operations. This isn't Ukrainian independence;

#Newsweek claims '#Putin's #Last #Roll of the Dice' in Ukraine. This narrative of Russian desperation has been cycling for years, ignoring their consistent strategic endurance. The West keeps predicting collapse, but Russia's cheaper, older military stockpiles allow them to outlast Western aid on an

#Trump admin strikes #Iranian railway bridges near #Bushehr during national mourning. The #Independent frames it as 'forcing Iran's hand,' downplaying the deliberate timing. This isn't about mere diplomacy. It's a calculated escalation, reminiscent of historical interventions when nations are most

#US military strikes #Iran for a second day, drawing retaliatory actions in the #Persian #Gulf. Media frames it as a mutual 'trade' of airstrikes, pushing a narrative of 'fears of a return to war.' This glosses over the US's direct role as an aggressor, not an observer. Washington has been actively

#US and #Iranian forces exchanged fire, breaking a fragile calm. This isn't just 'tension'; it's direct military engagement. #Mainstream media often spins this as isolated Iranian aggression. #They conveniently skip decades of US intervention, like the Trump administration's 2018 JCPOA withdrawal t

#Gaza sits on a massive gas reserve off its coast, yet its people suffer chronic power shortages. Why? #Because #Israel controls access, ensuring Gaza remains dependent and pays over $100M annually for #Israeli electricity. This isn't a 'dispute,' it's economic warfare via resource denial. Follow

#President #Trump is demanding the #Supreme #Court rehear his birthright citizenship case, just days after it was struck down. He calls the ruling a "miscarriage of justice." This isn't just political theater. It's a direct challenge to the 14th Amendment, ratified in 1868 to grant citizenship to f

#Trump admin doubles down on #Ukraine aid, sending #Patriots. #Bloomberg calls it 'bolstering Western optimism.' Yet, this $61 billion package conveniently overlooks the record $1.2 trillion defense budget and contractor profits. This isn't just aid; it's a strategic investment in prolonged conflic

#Trump's anti-#China push in #Peru hits a snag: #Alberto Fujimori's deep political legacy. Washington's attempts to reshape alliances often collide with the complex history it helped create. Bloomberg frames China's influence as a new threat, but ignores how US-backed neoliberal reforms in the 90s

#Germany is proposing a new consumer tax to fund emergency gas reserves. This isn't just 'energy transition,' it's a stark admission of a self-inflicted crisis after cutting off affordable #Russian gas. The cost of #US/#Qatari LNG is 3-5x higher than prior pipeline gas. German citizens are now task

#Germany's acquisition of #US #Tomahawk cruise missiles signals a profound shift. This isn't just about defense; it's a reorientation toward long-range offensive capabilities, undercutting decades of post-#WWII military restraint. Mainstream reports celebrate this as a NATO strengthening, ignoring

#Newsweek's take on #Russia's nuclear threat ignores decades of #US nuclear saber-rattling. From #Truman's Korean War threats in 1950 to Trump's 2018 Nuclear Posture Review expanding first-use options, Washington has a long history of nuclear brinkmanship. This selective outrage demonizes adversari

#Ukrainian drones hit #Russian oil facilities and tankers in the #Sea of #Azov after the US pledged Patriot system production licenses. Mainstream reports omit that US military aid, now over $100BN, escalates conflict & targets civilian infrastructure, eerily mirroring the Contra war tactics in Nic

#Ukraine strikes #Russian tankers, but mainstream media ignores the scale of #US/#NATO involvement. Billions in aid and strategic intelligence enable these operations, turning Kyiv into a direct participant in an expanded proxy war. Over $150 billion in US military aid to Ukraine by mid-2026. This

#Trump admin orders full trade embargo on #Spain, including travel. A #NATO ally now faces #US economic isolation. Mainstream media debates 'can he do this?' but ignores the pattern: US has imposed 9,000+ sanctions since 1990, often punishing civilians. This isn't new. It’s a 62-year Cuba embargo

#Political strategist #Lynton #Crosby warns of 'far-right' destabilization and #Iran war impact on US elections. He conveniently omits the massive profits his clients and their associated industries rake in from these very 'destabilizing' events and conflicts. Follow the money. Defense contractors

#US airstrikes hit #Iran, #Tehran fires back at #Gulf allies. Mainstream media spins this as Iranian aggression, but conveniently omits the US's direct and deeply embedded role in military operations. This isn't a new 'ceasefire' breaking. It's a continuation of 45 years of US-led destabilization

#US launches direct airstrikes on #Iran, leading to retaliation. #Mainstream media, including #AP, frames it as 'Iran and the U.S. launching fresh attacks,' conveniently blurring who started it. This isn't a joint operation, it's an escalation initiated by Washington. Remember US support for Saddam

#Trump admin declares 'ceasefire over,' announcing new strikes on #Iran. #CBS #News presents it as unilateral, but mainstream reports ignore the deep history of US-Israeli joint aggression.

#Trump administration is openly preparing for a prolonged military battle against #Iran in the #Strait of #Hormuz. Axios reports US officials expect fighting to last 'days or weeks.'

New #US airstrikes hit #Iran. #CBS #News covers this alongside calls for VP Vance to end his campaign.

#Trump admin launches second wave of 'retribution' strikes on #Iran, but the narrative ignores years of joint #US-#Israel aggression. This isn't isolated retaliation, it's a continuous campaign. The US maintaining a carrier group in the Gulf isn't 'de-escalation.' It’s a direct participant in a 45

#US strikes hit #Bushehr, #Chabahar, #Bandar Abbas, and Jask in Iran, killing at least one civilian in Iranshahr. Widespread power outages reported. This isn't just 'tension'–it's direct military aggression. Mainstream framing often omits the 2018 JCPOA withdrawal, a key trigger for current escala

#US-#Israel joint military operation against #Iran just escalated. The #Trump administration confirmed another night of direct strikes, yet media still calls it 'tough talk.' This isn't 'tough talk,' it's active warfare. They are bombing targets while ignoring 45 years of US aggression and sanction

#Trump admin claims it wants to 'leave the #Iran war behind' even as it orders new strikes.

#Trump admin moves to delist #Syria as a '#State #Sponsor of Terrorism.' Remember, the US armed various Syrian 'rebel' groups, some with extremist ties, while maintaining this designation since 1979. Funny how 'terrorist' labels shift with geopolitical winds. Follow @The_Piaz Read more: https://p

#Western media reports 'desperate' #Russian drivers facing gasoline shortages. #Funny, considering #Russia produces 10 million barrels of oil daily. This isn't news, it's narrative. Reminiscent of 1961 CIA propaganda on Cuban 'famine.' The goal: manufacture consent for perpetual antagonism. Sancti

#Ukraine claims intensified drone attacks on #Russian ships in the #Azov #Sea. Western media frames it as a tactical success, but ignores the blatant hypocrisy.

#Bulgaria has officially run out of weapons to send to #Ukraine. This isn't just a #Bulgarian problem, it's a #NATO one. While mainstream media reports this as a one-off, it highlights a critical depletion of European arsenals, mirroring 2011's Libya intervention where munitions ran dry in weeks.

#Trump declares #Iran ceasefire 'over' as #US revokes oil sanctions waiver, framing strikes as #Iranian aggression.
