Share: Just when we thought that Ukraine was a bipartisan issue, the Trump administration sets a new precedent on the world stage, where the loudest and boldest charlatan wins. The circus that erupted at the oval office late February shows us that President Trump and Vice President Vance are getting comfortable with their unchecked executive powers. “You are in no position to dictate what we’re going to feel,” Trump said in response to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s warning about potential risks of dealing with Russia. …
Billionaire bozo Bezos tightens his grasp on The Washington Post’s liberty
Share: Jeff Bezos has blatantly contradicted The Washington Post’s motto, “Democracy Dies in Darkness,” by altering the future content of the paper’s opinions page, censoring views opposed to his own, and imposing increased control. Bezos bought the prestigious publication in 2013 for a whopping $250 million, and since then, he has slowly instilled his viewpoints into the paper. Just last year, he shocked The Post subscribers by announcing that the publication would not endorse a 2024 presidential candidate for the first time in decades. Many …
RFK Jr. worms his way out of measles vaccinations
Share: The U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy (RFK) Jr., a long-time voice of anti-vaccine statements, has finally acknowledged the importance of the measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine but is still clearly beating around the bush when it comes to the deadly measles outbreak with the concerning statement that “the decision to vaccinate is personal.” In response to the measles outbreak that is currently severe in Texas, RFK Jr. acknowledged that the vaccine is “crucial to avoiding potentially deadly disease.” This statement, far from …
Pope’s decline highlights his crucial role on world stage
Share: Pope Francis has been hospitalized for the past few days; with his old age and fragility being highlighted in ways not normally seen. With him being sick enough for news organizations to publish stories such as “Pope Francis, sensing he is close to death, moves to protect his legacy” the question of what will happen in the Vatican City when he does finally die is becoming a more important one. Pope Francis was elected in 2013, as the first ever pope from the western …
Trump’s fascist rhetoric proves time is a flat circle
Share: The parallels between President Donald Trump and past fascist leaders, such as Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini may seem extreme, but there are several key points that reveal frightening similarities that cannot be ignored. One of the most striking similarities between Hitler and Trump is their unwillingness to accept defeat and their refusal of facts that put doubt into citizens’ minds about elections. In the 1932 presidential election, Hitler lost to Paul von Hindenburg by 6 million votes, claimed election fraud and went to …
Yes, Steve Bannon’s Nazi salute is exactly what it looks like
Share: “The only way we lose is if we quit, the only way we don’t have victory is if we surrender, the only way they win is we retreat. We’re not gonna retreat, we’re not gonna surrender, we’re not gonna quit,” said former White House Chief strategist Steve Bannon at the Conservative Political Action Committee on Thursday night. “Fight, fight, fight!” He closed out, but not before he made the peculiar choice to sign off his rousing speech with a quick motion. Abruptly, Bannon stuck …
Trump’s America is acting like Ukraine’s enemy
Share: It has been 3 years since Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022. While the U.S. has previously aided and supported Ukraine in the war, President Donald Trump has shifted gears to point fingers at Ukraine and its president, Volodymyr Zelensky, placing blame on him for this tragic bombardment. The war against Ukraine is the result of Russia invading the independent state due to the desire to capture what was formerly a dynamic territory of the Soviet Union before it declared independence in 1991. This is …
The ceasefire is dead and Netanyahu is the culprit
Share: Decades of tension and destruction have taken place between Palestinians and Israel, and while a three-phase, six-week ceasefire deal was reached to pause the fighting in Gaza, tensions have only increased as Israel’s Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, is seemingly deliberately damaging the agreements of the ceasefire, making many Palestinians wonder what’s next. This hostility was aggravated after the tragic Oct. 7 Hamas attacks on Israel. Since then, a deadly conflict has raged on in Gaza, the strip of land that is Palestinian territory, with …
Media Monitor: Why Trump is at war with the AP Stylebook
Share: In journalism, the words we choose shape the way people understand the world. That’s why newsrooms rely on style guides—references that ensure consistency, accuracy, and fairness in reporting. The Associated Press Stylebook is the most influential of them all. Its guidance extends far beyond AP reporters, shaping coverage across newspapers, broadcasters, and digital media that adopt its standards. When the AP makes an editorial decision, it has a ripple effect. And that’s exactly why Donald Trump has set his sights on it. The AP’s …
In deregulating aviation, Trump is making America guess again
Share: It’s not the first time we, the public, experience anxiety due to an upcoming flight. The typical concerns revolve around preparation and transportation to the airport; should we pack another pair of shoes, check-in a bag or take a small carry-on? At worst, the biggest fear is usually a delayed flight, that was until we started seeing reports of doors flying out in mid air, and aircrafts losing their landing gear last year. To make matters worse, President Trump has made the foolish decision …
