This morning, we’re diving into the growing chaos surrounding Donald Trump and his administration. Gas prices are climbing, support for the war with Iran is slipping, and Americans are clearly not buying what they’re being sold anymore. Then came the testimony from Tulsi Gabbard, which raised serious questions, followed by more eyebrow-raising comments from Pete Hegseth.
The messaging is falling apart, the contradictions are piling up, and people are finally starting to see through it.
