Right, what lobbying group paid their bribes this year.

Ah, military contractors are well up to date. Okay, lets toss them a few billion in Saudi weapons contracts.

How did I do?

There is a wide gap between war and staunch ally.

Like, we could stop supporting their genocide in Yemen. Could stop selling weapons to them period. Could stop buying their oil. Could start putting out sanctions. Could actually demand some accountability for their role in 9/11.

Whole spectrum between what we have now and outright war.

Except one side is based on broad scientific consensus and the other is based on your precious GEOTUS and corporate cronies who would rather see the human race dead than any threat to profits.

Give equal time to both sides, even when one side is blatantly full of shit. It's ridiculous.
