9. "It took two months, but we finally have our first "gate" of the second Trump administration: "Signalgate""

More evidence of how pathetically rotten our media is. And salon is usually relatively decent as news sources go these days.

First "gate"?
Really?

Betraying an ally fighting for freedom?
Calling him disrespectful because he wears a uniform to honor his soldiers?
Shutting down social security offices and phone systems?
Giving no-clearance musk and his minions access to seemingly all government data? The keys to the treasury? Personal info of nearly everyone?
Slashing contracts?
Canceling payments for goods and services already rendered?
Extorting and shaking down media outlets, law firms, and major corporations?
Betraying trade agreements either allies?
Ignoring court orders?
Lying to judges?
Ignoring Congress?
Ignoring laws?

And the list goes on and on and on.

None of those are "gates"?

Nothing scandalous here?

What the everloving f*ck!
