“Affordability “doesn’t mean anything to anybody,” said President Donald Trump during a Tuesday Cabinet meeting at the White House, saying it’s a “fake narrative” and “con job” that Democrats manufactured to hoodwink the public.
“They just say the word,” Trump added. “It doesn’t mean anything to anybody. They just say it—affordability. I inherited the worst inflation in history. There was no affordability. Nobody could afford anything.”
In classic Trump fashion, this is an about-face. Just a few days prior, he declared on Truth Social, “I AM THE AFFORDABILITY PRESIDENT” when touting falling drug prices.”
“The word affordability is a Democrat scam,” he said. “They say it, and then they go on to the next subject. And everyone thinks, ‘Oh, they had lower prices.'”
The administration says they are targeting the worst of the worst in their illegal immigration crackdown, but the facts are, they are sweeping up lots of people whose only crime was illegally immigrating.
Military wife calls, concerned about her family’s healthcare as a result of the shutdown, and Mike Johnson, the Republican Speaker of the House, just lies to her.
Joe Rogan spread false information based on a graph that he appeared to misunderstand. The article that the graph is from explained why what he was saying is false, so he appears to have not read or understood the article. Many other popular influencers and show hosts brought up Rogan’s false information, spreading it further and cheering on Rogan’s spread of falsity.
‘Multi level marketing schemes are mostly scams. Most people fail and lose money. Some lose a lot of money. People want to be their own boss, but really they’re a sucker.’
Trump has been lying to his supporters for a long time and they seem to fall for it like suckers. But maybe bullshitting on Epstein will finally open their eyes?
Seems like Trump announced a ceasefire before many Israeli and Iranian government officials knew about the talks or agreement. There was a period between the announcement of a ceasefire and the time it went into effect when Israel and Iran struck each other while they still could. The ceasefire appears to have been broken, but may be holding now.
Claims that the Iranian nuclear program was obliterated sound like silly propagandistic lies by the Trump administration. The nuclear program was greatly damaged, but not obliterated, and Iran can rebuild. Depending on how fast Iran can rebuild, this may have ultimately been a futile attack that only makes Iran more determined to get a nuclear weapon.
Republican bill kicks millions of people off Medicaid. Speaker of House falsely claims that he wants to remove fraudsters from Medicaid when really he just wants the program to help less people. Rather than making the argument for having a less generous Medicaid program, he misleads.
