Very odd SCOOP:

Just weeks before the 2024 primary election between Cori Bush and Wesley Bell, Bell used over $35,000 in campaign funds to buy his friend's Dodge Durango, which the friend had failed to sell two years earlier.

He then hired the friend, who now drives the car.

The congressman from St. Louis put some of AIPAC's money to an unusual use. He now faces a rematch with Cori Bush.

Israel was presented with the terms and substantially altered them. US is absolutely fine with that even as it humiliates the Arab counties backing it.

Now Hamas comes back with amendments and the world loses its mind.

This post would make for a good exhibit for students in a class on propaganda, critical thinking, and media literacy. All of the elements needed to debunk it are contained within the post itself, you just have to use critical thinking faculties to identify them.
