President Trump once again proved that bold leadership gets results, cutting through the Washington paralysis to bring Israel and Hamas to the table and secure the first phase of a negotiated peace plan that promises the release of hostages and a pathway toward a durable ceasefire. While the legacy press shrieks and scoffs, the facts on the ground show diplomacy backed by strength can deliver what endless hand-wringing never did.
Americans tired of talk and weakness should take notice: the president announced concrete steps — an agreed withdrawal line for Israeli forces and the beginning of hostage and prisoner exchanges — moves that could end a bloody chapter and spare countless innocents further suffering. This is the kind of results-oriented statecraft that the woke bureaucrats never imagined, and it’s why ordinary patriots put their faith in action over rhetoric.
At the same time, a striking moment at the White House roundtable exposed the media’s mirror-image problem: Seattle journalist Brandi Kruse admitted in front of President Trump that she had suffered from “Trump Derangement Syndrome” for years and said she’s happier, healthier, and more successful since shedding it. Her candor — and the president’s warm response — is embarrassing for the smug coastal elites who profit from perpetual outrage and who label anyone who questions them as immoral or deranged.
This isn’t just a human-interest quirk; it’s proof that the fever of TDS warps judgement, careers, and the national conversation. Conservatives should celebrate when people wake up from that hysteria, not sneer — because a country that can think clearly again is a country that can govern itself, defend its allies, and protect its citizens. The media’s reflex to mock and minimize these conversions only shows how invested they are in maintaining the outrage machine that fuels clicks and careers.
And let’s be honest: conservative media outlets and commentators are doing what the mainstream won’t — amplifying wins, calling out the left’s hypocrisy, and reminding Americans that patriotism means protecting life and liberty, not indulging perpetual moral panic. Programs like The Rubin Report and other right-leaning platforms are helping bring these stories to a wider audience so the truth can break through the swamp of centralized narrative control.
