Pete Hegseth, lacking Trump's immunity, is being set up as the fall guy for what legal experts condemn as war crimes. His reckless "kill them all" orders stem from Trump's unlawful assumption of judge-jury-executioner power. This is state-sponsored murder, not policy.

Trump makes these baloney investment claims all the time (with help from collaborator corporations and authoritarian countries) but they don't work, even with media outlets readily repeating them. Polling on Trump and the economy continues to crater, net approval currently -25ish.
“.. Federal data shows corporate investment levels are roughly in line with last year, with companies on track to invest over $5 trillion in 2025. The $20 trillion surge Mr. Trump has claimed does not appear in the available data.”

The uncomfortable part is that your benevolence and violence come from the same core machinery. You’re a social species built to bond hard with “us,” defend it fiercely, and copy whatever your group rewards.
