other billionaires just running the world. Where is the outrage from world leaders. A couple of harsh words from Mexico and Canada. A little chatter from European leaders. Republicans are fine with conquering Gaza with out a peep. The press timidly asks with no follow up. Everyone seems to be quite eager for this group of clear criminals and fascist to go about their business like it's all normal. Is it me or what ?

(7,462 posts)The Guardian and BBC both have stories regularly about European leaders warnings of how serious this all is. Needless to say, Al-Jazeera is not pleased. I wish the International Herald Tribune was still in business. I'd love to see their coverage. Two high level Republican committee chairs just voted to withhold funding from Israel.
We're not going to get it from our usual MSM sources, but it's everywhere else. For now.

(33,429 posts)but I no longer have an interest, or a need to know. I have a hard enough time trying to navigate my way around to read blips here and there from people I quasi-trust about what is/isn't going on here. There hasn't been any real news in this country in a long time. It was all-Trump-all the time for months before the election, and none of it was news. It was what he might do, what he was thinking, saying, just noise. Then after the election it took what ...just 15 days ago? Can that be? And the place is on fire.
