The White House just released a propaganda portal on their official website to spread easily debunked lies and attack reporters, media outlets and his political enemies.
Government sponsored propaganda is a feature of fascism, not a bug in Democracy.

In case you’re wondering why Pete Hegseth is freaking out about a congressional video reminding the military not to participate in illegal orders:
To put a finer point on this whole thing: "Two people with direct knowledge of the operation" — presumably uniformed military leaders — are accusing the U.S. Secretary of Defense of personally ordering specific war crimes. That's a historic accusation.
Textbook war crime/extrajudicial killing
"Two survivors were clinging to the smoldering wreck. The Special Operations commander overseeing the Sept. 2 attack ... ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth’s instructions."

Trump, Bill Mahar, Ted Cruz -- I kept hearing right wing MAGAs claim genocide of Nigerian Christians.
So I investigated, and here's what I found: There's no alleged genocide—but there's definitely an oil & profit interest in claiming their is. Here are the facts:
