The media is struggling to cover the Israel–Hamas conflict without tripping over its own bias. The New York Times splashed a front-page image of an emaciated child in Gaza, only to later admit the boy’s condition had nothing to do with starvation. At the same time, horrifying reports of Hamas starving hostages and forcing them to dig their own graves are largely ignored by those same outlets.
Donald Trump is bringing back the Presidential Fitness Test — and the press is fuming. The New York Times says it “revives painful memories” for some, but others say it’s exactly the kind of accountability America’s kids need.
Axios reports that Democrats have almost stopped talking about the “Green New Deal.” Has Joe Biden quietly killed the climate movement?
And finally, Trump is preparing a new executive order to crack down on “debanking,” targeting banks like JP Morgan Chase for alleged discrimination against conservatives.
All that — in 10 minutes, no filler, no spin.
