4. Haven't heard anyone, including Murphy, talk about imperialism and theft of a sovereign nation's resources,

about past US actions in the western hemisphere to control other nations' economies and politics, about regime change and assassinations, about project 2025 and monroe doctrine, about TSF's other threats around the world pertaining to taking over for economic benefit. About his cozying up to oil interests for a decade for his own benefit, while hobbling solar/wind energy and EV use.

Don't care as much for discussion about the aftermath in terms of governing when we haven't even fully processed and discussed the initial action and reasons why. MSM is focused on the aftermath and dems whining about process rather than the big, dangerous picture here.

If it makes the US money in the short term, is it just fine with congress regardless of effects on other countries and long term chaos?
