Dave Rubin did the country a service when he dropped a DM clip of Scott Galloway’s Morning Joe appearance — a short, undeniable moment that exposed the cable anchors’ performative outrage and their intolerance for calm facts. The clip shows Galloway laying out plain comparisons and historical context while Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski sputter, visibly rattled that a guest would dare to challenge the preferred narrative. Conservatives should be grateful someone in the media is willing to put common sense back on the table instead of reflexive moral posturing.
On Morning Joe, Galloway didn’t shout or pontificate; he methodically reminded viewers of precedents and casualty ratios, even invoking American wars where we were never accused of genocide despite massive deaths. His point was simple and devastating to the media’s double standard: context matters, and if you ignore the atrocities of October 7 and the deliberate targeting of civilians and hostages, you’re lying by omission. That clip originally aired on Morning Joe in April 2024, and the transcript makes clear Galloway’s point was a factual, not emotional, intervention in a hysterical segment.
MSNBC’s hosts reacted like agitators caught in a lie rather than journalists caught in error, which is revealing in itself. When a network behaves more like a political brand than a news outlet, it shouts louder to drown out inconvenient truths, and that’s exactly what happened when the hosts tried to smother Galloway’s logic with theatrics. For patriotic Americans who value honest debate and the safety of our allies, this episode was a welcome reminder that not all mainstream anchors deserve the pedestal they’ve built for themselves.
Let’s be unambiguous about what provoked Israel’s response: Hamas’s October 7, 2023 massacre was an unprecedented assault on civilians, involving mass killings and hostage-taking that shocked the world and demanded a response. That brutal campaign of terror left hundreds dead, many more wounded, and scores taken hostage — facts documented by major outlets and by the timeline of events that still haunts the region. You cannot assess proportionality in a vacuum; context is not a partisan luxury, it is the backbone of any legitimate moral judgment.
Galloway’s comparison to American wars and the inconsistent outrage that follows is not an apology for collateral damage, it’s a rebuke of virtue-signaling that selectively applies human decency. If the media demanded the same standards of nuance and solidarity for every massacre, there wouldn’t be room for the current moral theater that vilifies Israel while soft-pedaling the initial atrocity that set this calamity in motion. Conservatives should stop apologizing for defending a democratic ally under siege and start calling out the media for its selective empathy.
Patriotic Americans must treat moments like this as a blueprint: share the facts, refuse the performative outrage, and hold our institutions to a standard of honest reporting. Dave Rubin amplifying the clip was a useful corrective — it reminds us that the truth will out when brave commentators are willing to speak it plainly. The fight for fair coverage isn’t about partisan gratification; it’s about protecting the principles of truth and justice that bind free nations together.
