Washington’s Got a Bad Case of Amnesia

It’s day six of the US war with Iran, and War Secretary Pete Hegseth is trying to reassure Central and South America that the US hasn’t forgotten about its own backyard.

Hegseth’s Sales Pitch

Hegseth’s message to the Americas? Don’t worry, we’re still looking out for you, even if it doesn’t seem like it. The US is ‘finished’ selling out its people, he claims. It’s a bold statement, but it’s hard to take seriously when you consider the US’s track record.
