The image shared by the former president, purportedly of a bald eagle, actually depicted a falcon and originated from a 2017 Israeli news article about windmill-related deaths of birds and bats. This error, likely overlooked in the review process, highlights a pattern of misinformation. Trump has a history of criticizing windmills, often using inaccurate claims to support his preference for fossil fuels.

On Tuesday, Donald Trump shared a social media post criticizing wind energy, featuring an image of a dead bird beneath a turbine, claiming it was a bald eagle killed by a windmill. However, closer examination reveals the image is not of a bald eagle and was taken in Israel eight years ago. The photograph, which actually shows a falcon, was originally published in a 2017 Haaretz report detailing bird deaths at Israeli wind farms. The article further notes that Israeli nature authorities share concerns about bird deaths caused by wind turbines.

On December 16, 2025, a viral video by YouTuber Nick Shirley claimed that several Minnesota daycares, including ABC Learning Center, were empty despite receiving government funding. This video has sparked controversy, as security footage showed children present at the ABC Learning Center and other daycare facilities. State records show that most of the daycares mentioned in the video have active licenses and have been inspected within the last six months, with some facing citations related to safety and training. In response to the allegations of fraud, the Department of Health and Human Services has frozen federal child care funding for Minnesota.

AI-generated videos showing young and attractive women promote Poland’s EU exit. The very concept is unsettling, isn’t it? It feels like we’re witnessing a new front in a war, a digital one, where the weapons are not bullets, but carefully crafted images and persuasive narratives. The thought that artificial intelligence is being harnessed to manipulate public opinion, specifically with the intent of undermining a nation’s stability, is deeply concerning. The idea of using young, attractive women to push an agenda, playing on societal vulnerabilities, is a particularly insidious tactic, demonstrating a clear understanding of human psychology. It’s hard not to feel a sense of betrayal, like we’re being played.… Continue reading
Attorney General Pam Bondi posted and then deleted a graph showing a decline in drug overdose deaths, attempting to give credit to the Trump administration for progress made under Joe Biden. The graph, tracking overdose deaths from 2015 to 2024, illustrated a spike before plateauing in 2022 and 2023, followed by a sharp decline during Biden’s term, which Bondi misrepresented. Social media users and politicians, like Rep. Ted Lieu, quickly pointed out the error, leading to the post’s deletion. Furthermore, concerns have been raised about potential risks to these gains due to Trump’s policies, including budget cuts to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Agency and aggressive actions in other countries.

During Christmas Day, Donald Trump engaged in a prolific social media posting spree, attacking various targets and amplifying claims made by supporters. Analysis revealed that a significant portion of the shared content originated from foreign accounts, despite claims of being based in the U.S. These accounts, often located in South Asia and Eastern Europe, promoted pro-MAGA rhetoric and echoed Trump’s sentiments on issues like election integrity and immigration. This behavior isn’t new, as Trump has previously relied on foreign accounts to bolster his online presence and support for his agenda.

Kelly says he wishes someone would tell Trump ‘how math works’, and frankly, it’s a sentiment many people share. It’s not just about simple arithmetic; it’s about understanding the fundamental principles of numbers and how they impact reality. The core issue seems to be that a significant portion of the electorate, and apparently Trump himself, struggles with these basic concepts. The frustration stems from the idea that sound decision-making, in any field, relies on a solid grasp of mathematical truths. When those truths are ignored or distorted, it leads to a distorted understanding of the world.
The problem, as articulated here, isn’t just that Trump might misunderstand math; it’s that he seems uninterested in grasping it.… Continue reading
President Trump has been making the claim that tariffs have generated $18 trillion for the United States, a figure he has repeated multiple times in various public settings. This number is not only factually incorrect but also logically impossible, as the actual tariff revenue collected by the government this year is significantly lower, approximately $236 billion. The article suggests that Trump’s statement may be confusing tax revenue with private investment deals, but even when accounting for these, the $18 trillion figure is a vast exaggeration compared to the White House’s own reported figures. Ultimately, the article concludes that the basis for Trump’s claim is unclear, potentially fabricated.

President Trump has recently been touting an inflated figure of $18 trillion, claiming it represents the revenue generated by tariffs, a figure that has been repeated across various public appearances. This number is not only factually incorrect but also logically impossible, as the federal government has collected significantly less in tariff revenue. The president seems to be conflating tariff revenue with private investment deals, further blurring the line between the government and the private sector, but even the White House’s own tracking shows a figure far less than the claimed $18 trillion. Ultimately, the origin of this figure remains unclear.
