Former President Trump falsely claimed that the U.S. population is unknown, despite readily available census data indicating 331 million residents. This statement arose during a speech boasting about his administration’s withdrawal from the World Health Organization (WHO), citing disproportionate U.S. funding compared to China’s contribution. Trump further connected this to concerns about undocumented immigration, stating that the U.S. has “no idea” how many people are entering the country. His assertions contradict official statistics and expert warnings regarding the risks associated with WHO withdrawal.

President Trump reportedly ordered the immediate termination of seventeen inspectors general across various federal agencies, a move condemned by critics as a blatant attempt to dismantle crucial oversight mechanisms. This action, seemingly violating federal law by failing to provide Congress with advance notice, follows a similar purge in 2020. The dismissals, largely targeting officials appointed during Trump’s first term, have sparked widespread accusations of undermining checks and balances and paving the way for corruption. The White House has yet to officially comment on these reports.

British officials familiar with President Trump offer a mixed assessment of his communication style: expect unpredictable conversations that frequently deviate from planned agendas, often marked by humor and surprising tangents. However, these unpredictable exchanges frequently contain underlying strategic aims or negotiating points. Despite the unconventional approach, the officials emphasize that Trump’s actions are not entirely without purpose.

Phone calls between Donald Trump and British Prime Ministers Theresa May and Boris Johnson were reportedly so unpredictable that they left Downing Street staff in tears of laughter. These conversations frequently veered off-topic, with Trump raising subjects ranging from wind turbines to the Queen’s health. His relationship with the two prime ministers differed, warmer with Johnson than with May, potentially due to May’s Brexit approach and Trump’s views on women. Tensions currently exist between Trump and current Prime Minister Keir Starmer, partly due to leaked details of a previous call and a potential ambassadorial dispute.

The potential consequences are horrific, and the sheer callousness displayed is deeply disturbing.

Zelenskyy warned of Putin’s willingness to manipulate world leaders, including Trump, to achieve a favorable outcome for Russia.

Newsmax host Rob Finnerty lauded Donald Trump’s swift implementation of numerous executive orders upon his return to the White House, characterizing him as a “dictator” elected by the American people. These orders included efforts to overturn birthright citizenship, deny transgender rights, expand the death penalty, and pardon January 6th rioters. Finnerty celebrated this “shock and awe” approach, suggesting it overwhelmed the mainstream media’s ability to provide thorough coverage. He attributed the public’s support to their having “asked for and voted for” these actions.

Despite Robert Kennedy’s upcoming Senate confirmation hearing for HHS Secretary, President Trump is already implementing an anti-public health agenda aligned with Kennedy’s views. This includes withdrawing from the WHO, imposing restrictions on the NIH hindering infectious disease research, and dismantling a website providing reproductive healthcare information. Further, Trump’s actions, such as pharmaceutical price deregulation and potential Medicaid cuts, indicate a broader effort to limit healthcare access, particularly for low-income individuals, mirroring Kennedy’s belief that healthcare should be a privilege, not a right. This agenda, despite Kennedy’s superficial focus on healthy eating, ultimately prioritizes the spread of infectious disease and restricts access to vital healthcare services.
