Settler Terrorists Attacked Three NBC Journalists in the West Bank – Did Meet the Press Cover It?
Summary
Katie Halper and Aaron Maté critique NBC for ignoring the attack on its own reporters by Israeli settlers in the West Bank, contrasting this with coverage on CBS. They then dismantle pro-war rhetoric from Senators John Kennedy and Ted Cruz regarding the US conflict with Iran, exposing their false claims of military success and support for regime change. The hosts also condemn Ted Cruz’s justification of US oil theft in Venezuela and Senator Richard Blumenthal’s continued advocacy for escalating the war in Ukraine despite its humanitarian toll.
