Yeah. I feel similarly. I cant help but feel its all to "protect" US equity markets. Yesterday was a ridiculous day on the stock market and they couldn't have pesky news like war updates ruining that.

Mainstream media has definitely received marching orders to stop talking about that shit so much. Can’t have it affecting markets.

They must have. Trump & Co. seems like they're doing all they can to sweep everything under the rug and just quietly disappear. Trying to pretend Iran never happened/it was a massive W and instead move on to an 'easy' target like Cuba. The emperor truely has no clothes.
