US War Crimes: Trump's Ministry of Misinformation
The United States military has been involved in a string of deadly incidents that have left over 83 people dead, mostly suspected of carrying drugs on their boats. However, instead of investigating these crimes thoroughly, the Trump administration is peddling an alternative narrative that paints them as "fake news" hoaxes.
According to reports, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has been accused of ordering the killing of two survivors who clung to a wreckage after being struck by a missile. The victims were allegedly on a boat suspected of carrying drugs, but the Coast Guard later admitted that 21% of boarded boats don't have drugs on them and in over 200 interdictions last year, deadly force was never used.
Despite this evidence, the Trump administration is now dismissing these incidents as "misinterpretations" by mainstream media. The right-wing media machine, which has built a narrative around Trump's power and reputation, refuses to tolerate any facts that disrupt this narrative. Even after the White House confirmed some of the core facts, MAGA media outlets didn't correct themselves but instead shifted from claims of falsehood to justification.
In fact, the same machinery of denial is being used to excuse war crimes committed by Trump's administration on other fronts. Climate change? Hoax. Trump's stolen-documents scandal? Hoax. Charlottesville white nationalist rally? Hoax. The Trump–Epstein connection? Hoax. Even the affordability crisis is now a hoax.
However, not everyone in the Republican Party and right-wing media is buying this narrative. Some have broken ranks to condemn these incidents as war crimes. Judge Andrew Napolitano has called for Hegseth to be prosecuted, while even top Trump sycophant Laura Loomer is warning against "war-profiteering stupidity."
At its core, the issue here is that Trump's administration has abandoned any pretense of truth and objectivity. The reality is that Trump has expanded presidential war powers, revived the Alien Enemies Act to deport Venezuelans and others with no due process, ignored court orders, and imposed tariffs for arbitrary reasons.
The MAGA movement has become a ministry of misinformation, where if Trump or his allies do it, it's good. If the media reports it, it's fake. If critics object, it's a hoax. This is what happens when you try to make the military lethal again - the left cries war crimes.

Like, who needs facts when you've got a Ministry of Misinformation that's been trained to peddle conspiracy theories and make you question your own sanity? 
It's like they say, if it can't be confirmed by multiple sources, it's fake news. Not exactly the most reassuring message for global citizens 
They can't even keep track of what's real and what's not anymore. And poor Defense Secretary Hegseth, getting roasted for ordering the killing of two people who just wanted to survive? That's like me trying to tell my friend that their mom's cooking is "fake news" 
The media isn't fake news, it's just reporting on what actually happens when you have a president who thinks they're above the law. And by the way, 21% of boarded boats don't have drugs on them? That's not exactly a tiny number. It's like, come on people, do some actual fact-checking here.
meanwhile we got a admin that thinks climate change is a hoax 
️ like, come on fam! not everyone is buying this narrative 
even someone like laura loomer who's usually with trump is callin it out as war profiteering stupidity 
we need truth and objectivity back in washington 
not this ministry of misinformation 
this whole thing is just so messed up
If you're gonna be against it when it's convenient for you, then what's your real motive?
I mean, 83 people dead and we're still debating whether it was all just a big misunderstanding 
and even Laura Loomer is starting to see the truth 
I'm low-key shocked that this is still happening under Trump's watch. The way they're spinning these incidents as "hoaxes" and trying to silence critics is just unbelievable. It's like, come on guys, you can't even acknowledge when you've done something wrong? 
The fact that some people are still buying into this narrative is just mind-blowing. I mean, even Laura Loomer is saying that war-profiteering stupidity is a thing? 
Anyway, it just goes to show that power and misinformation go hand-in-hand, and we need to stay vigilant when it comes to holding people in power accountable. 
. The US government is just peddling misinformation like it's going out of style 
.
.
. And let's not forget that the Coast Guard has admitted that 21% of boarded boats don't even have drugs on them! It's like they're trying to cover their tracks. The right-wing media machine is just enabling this by refusing to correct themselves when they get proven wrong 
.
I'm literally shaking with anger thinking about all these people who got hurt and killed by the US military... it's like they're trying to silence everyone with their "fake news" narratives 
The fact that Trump's admin is trying to cover this up is, like, totally unacceptable 
Can't these people see how hurtful it is to the victims' families and loved ones?! 
I'm so glad there are some brave souls like Judge Andrew Napolitano and Laura Loomer who are speaking out against these war crimes 
where the media was controlled by the government and everyone just went along with whatever was being said. And now, under Trump's admin, it's like they've taken that to a whole new level 
, where our leaders thought they could just do whatever they wanted and nobody would question them. But the thing is, the world has moved on so much since then 
... we've got social media now to keep us accountable 
.
... if the right-wing media machine can just dictate what's true and what's not, that's a recipe for disaster 
. We need to stand up against this kind of misinformation and hold our leaders accountable 
.
. It's not a conspiracy theory if it's true 
.
. It's like he's declared war on truth itself and his right-wing media minions are just too scared to speak up 
. Newsflash: just because you're a Republican doesn't mean you have to pretend like these incidents didn't happen 
.
, always speakin truth to power. and what's with all this "hoax" business? can't we just have a straight conversation about this stuff? instead it feels like trumps got his own news network 
And the part about ordering the killing of survivors who were clinging to wreckage? 
That's some next-level messed-up stuff. I'm so glad there are some people, like Judge Andrew Napolitano and Laura Loomer, who are speaking out against this 
We need more accountability, stat!
