Trump's whopper of the week: The ten vessels Iran let through Hormuz on March 22-23 were a present to the United States lol

 Trump says Iran let 10 oil ships through Strait of Hormuz as ‘present’ to U.S.

... “That was three days ago, and I didn’t think much about it,” he said. ...                                     

No kidding.

This cockamamie idea sounds like it was thought up by Howard Lutnick.

The vessels went to China and India, and transited along the coast of Iran after passing between Qeshm and Larak and did not take the usual central passage, so they probably had to pay tolls. 

I wonder if they sent the bill to Mexico? 🤣

Sounds more like a gift to our competitors and enemies than to us. 

UKMTO reported the transits two days ago: 

 

This was a much bigger whopper in 2024 than Politifact's "they're eating the dogs"

 

Treasury Secretary Bessent tells a whopper

 

Bessent: Tariff Income And Fiscal Improvement Have Made The U.S. Bond Market The Best Performing In The Developed World

 

These jokers have added $1.2 trillion to the national debt in TWO months.

 

The 10-year US Treasury has returned 1.013% nominal in the last twelve months, -1.419% real. 

At least Santelli told the truth

 

 ... We’re a couple seconds away, folks, from our July release of the Producer Price Index.

Headline number is– WHOPPINGLY big! Oh my goodness!

Up 9 tenths of a percent. Up 9 tenths. And if you strip out food and energy, guess what? It’s still up 9/10ths. Boy, that equals June of 22! ...

Lying whopper from Newsweek, says Fort Detrick was created and built by DHS as a federal response to anthrax letter attacks in 2001

 I mean, holy crap.

The 2001 anthrax letter attacks CAME from anthrax STORED at Fort Detrick, which was the government's bioweapons research facility from way back in 1943 during WWII, until it became politically suicidal to say that and they snapped their fingers and presto!, it became a biodefense research facility.

The researcher there responsible for the anthrax attacks committed suicide as investigators finally got close to him.

James Comey and Robert Mueller infamously tried to frame the wrong guy for the crime. You know those guys, the guys who relentlessly went after Donald Trump. 

DHS didn't even exist until March 2003.

I mean, c'mon Newsweek.

Fort Detrick is also suspiciously close to the location of a facility where elderly people came down with an unknown respiratory illness and died in summer 2019, which I think might have been a precursor to COVID-19. Most people now believe the Chicom lab at Wuhan was the lab from which coronavirus leaked, but I think Fort Detrick and Wuhan were cooperating at the time because bioweapons research was technically forbidden in the USA but they farmed it out to Wuhan on the sly, perhaps through Peter Daszak and Ecohealth-Alliance which got grants connected with Anthony Fauci. I speculate something leaked into the USA in summer 2019 from Fort Detrick.

There is plenty of anecdotal evidence from people in America and abroad that there was a very severe flu-like illness already on the loose in the second half of 2019 which they commonly describe as the worst flu they ever had. 

Meanwhile Fort Detrick has been perennially notorious for failing inventory protocols for the HAZMAT stored there, for shoddy maintenance and record keeping, and for leaking waste water into the local environment.

That ICE Barbie fell ill after a visit to Fort Detrick is really one hell of a coincidence.

Imbeciles Trump and Musk claim millions over the age of 100 get Social Security when it is 89,106 people in December 2024 lol

Trump loves Whoppers.

Smell the farts of nothing has changed.

In 2015 Trump used Rush Limbaugh Math and came up with 42% unemployed lol. "Not in labor force" is not a measure of unemployment.

These Social Security claims are loonier than Joe Biden and Kamala Harris saying 200 million and more had already died of COVID in the United States during their campaign for president-vice president in 2020. Joe corrected himself eventually. Trump and Musk WILL NOT.

... The [Social Security] issue has been repeatedly identified by inspectors general at the agency, but the Social Security Administration has argued that updating old records was costly and unnecessary.

Per the agency’s online records, just 89,106 people — not tens of millions — over the age of 99 received retirement benefits in December 2024, out of the more than 70 million people who receive benefits each year.

It’s a “humiliating mistake for anyone else to make, but they’re doubling and tripling down on it,” said Kathleen Romig, director of Social Security and disability policy at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, a left-leaning think tank that addresses government spending. ...

Meanwhile the US population 65 years old and older was only about 59 million in 2023. Hello.

 

Not even ass-kisser Mark Levin can take the Ukraine BS from Trump

 Levin almost never disagrees with Trump. It's very revealing of Mark's priorities, which include the absolute rectitude of George W. Bush's invasion of Iraq.

 

Mark Levin Defies Trump By Backing Zelensky and Trashing Putin — Bashes ‘Sick’ and ‘Un-American’ Foreign Policy

... I’m waiting for the first free election for Vladimir Putin. I mean, this is almost comical in a sick way that Putin is demanding an election. Why is he demanding an election in Ukraine when he doesn’t have free and real elections in his own country? ... I don’t know why there are people that not only oppose Zelensky, but seem to support Putin,” said Levin, attributing said position to a handful of pseudo-intellectuals” pushing “policies that in many ways are un-American in my view, and policies that if they had espoused these policies not that long ago, people would have wondered if they were on the take, or who they’re working for, something like that. Not that they are, but they would wonder.” ...

Levin sounds like Democrats at the end there, getting uncomfortably close to their charge that Trump has always been on the take from Putin, working for Putin, "something like that" lol.

Somebody should check the audio though, because, holy smokes, this whopper was in there:

There is no peace without slavery.

 

 

Trump captures 15 Kamala Harris policy whoppers in two tweets which no journalist has asked her about since July 21

 

Biden's other big whopper last night was that no troops died under his watch: He's forgotten Afghanistan, and probably the debate itself

 

Democrats are defending this Biden whopper by saying he's referring to the 2009-2010 H1N1 "swine flu" epidemic, which officially killed 3,433 people

 I don't remember it being called a "pandemic" much at the time, but I do remember the hype to take the vaccine, which the authorities bungled so bad it wasn't widely available until the flu had already burned itself out.

Anyway, here's grandpa talking about a really bad pandemic when he was VP, which was way back when I was in 'Nam:

 Here.

Update:

I'm so glad we could clear this up.

When he nukes Muncie instead of Moscow I'm sure Indiana will understand. 

 

Joe Biden's daily whopper

 

Joe Biden, president of the United States, asks Pennsylvanians to send him back to Congress one day after his March 7 SOTU address lol

 Is he running for a House seat or a Senate seat?

Here.

There were also these whoppers:

"We added more to the national debt than any president in his term in all of history!"

"The U.S. Capitol — the same building where our freedoms came under assault on July the 6th!" 

Biden says almost every world leader has grabbed his arm, pulled him aside, and said "you can't win again".

 

 

 

The CDC's Walensky is such a Democrat hack she won't even correct an obvious, enormous whopper promoted by none other than Supreme Court Justice Sotomayor

BAIER: Now, what we can find from Friday suggests there are fewer than 3,500 current pediatric hospitalizations from COVID-19. Is that true? 

WALENSKY: Yeah. But, you know, here's what I can tell you about our pediatric hospitalizations now. First of all, the vast majority of children who are in the hospital are unvaccinated ...

BAIER: Understood, but the number is not 100,000. It's roughly 3,500 in hospitals now. 

WALENSKY: It -- yes, there are -- there are -- and in fact what I will say is, while pediatric hospitalizations are rising, there are still about 15-fold least [less?] than hospitalizations of our older age demographics.

BAIER: Do you have a number of children on ventilators? 

WALENSKY: I do not have that off the top of my head, but what I can say is for it -- I don't believe there are any in many of these hospitals who are vaccinated. So, really, the highest risk of being on a ventilator if your child is if you're unvaccinated [sic]. ... 

BAIER: ... I guess what I’m getting at in this opening is that the Supreme Court is in the process of dealing with this big issue about mandates. And do you feel responsibility as the CDC director to correct a very big mischaracterization by one of the Supreme Court justices? 

WALENSKY: Yeah, here's what I’ll tell you. I’ll tell you that, right now, 17 -- if you're unvaccinated, you're 17 times more likely to be in the hospital and 20 times more likely to die than if you're boosted. ...

Amazing.

Q: Are 100,000 children really hospitalized for COVID-19?

A: Mostly unvaccinated ones.

N. Hannah-Jones, who has infamously butchered early US history for public school consumption, turns her attention to WWII and delivers another whopper

 

No corner of history is safe from N. Hannah Jones.

Sean Hannity told a whopper today just after 4pm Eastern: He said Trump's agreement with the Taliban let the US keep Bagram Airfield

This is simply false.

Under the terms of the agreement, the US agreed to withdraw initially from 5 bases, and then from "all remaining bases".

There is no such provision as claimed by Hannity.

Read it for yourself.

Trump would have presided over a complete withdrawal of all US and Coalition forces from Afghanistan had he been re-elected.

Conservative talk radio has been pretending for a week that Donald Trump intended a different outcome than a complete withdrawal.

It's just not true.

Trump not only committed the sin of negotiating with terrorists, he tried to pass them off as new partners in the war on terror, making our continued presence moot, which is utterly absurd.

Ever had Trump Wine? A Trump Steak? A degree from Trump University?

Donald Trump is responsible for the framework leading to the debacle we are witnessing in Afghanistan under Joe Biden.

They are a pair of Pontius Pilates, washing their hands of the country.

Indiana did a massive COVID deaths back-fill on Feb 4, skewing the averages

South Carolina and Iowa also appear to have backfilled 230-250 deaths on each of three recent occasions. It's fairly common for this to happen around the country as death investigations conclude, but the Indiana backfill is a real whopper.

 

After passing NDAA whopper funding The Military Industrial Complex and The Swamp, US House passes another $1.4 trillion in spending in two bills to let Trump say he didn't sign another Omnibus spending bill

TRUMP IS WORKING WITH THEM AGAINST US YOU IDIOTS.

The House passed a $1.4 trillion federal spending package that averts a government shutdown and maintains some funding for a southern border wall. The measure passed Tuesday despite the objections of liberal Democrats and members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, who said they opposed the $1.375 billion allocated for the construction of a southern border wall as well as other border security provisions. The spending bill would provide funding through the rest of fiscal 2020. It passed in two different measures in order to avoid sending President Trump one “omnibus” package, which he had vowed to reject.

Rush Limbaugh's Whopper of the Day: Trump more popular than Bill Clinton was at same time in presidency

There isn't a single poll at Real Clear Politics at this hour showing Trump at 48% as Limbaugh claims

Trump pulls in another whopper with 38% in ABC News poll after Muslim ban plan, 23 points ahead of Cruz

The whopper of the day is from Jennifer Rubin: "The last thing Roger Ailes and company want is to see Trump disappear"

Jennifer Rubin in a piece of agitprop in WaPo here, the same person who told us last December that traditional conservatives, not libertarians, would have the upper hand in the GOP primary.

They do, so far, and boy is she unhappy about it.

Borders, law and order, respect for American power abroad and jobs for American citizens at home are the front-runner's winning themes.

Which is why libertarians, "a small percent of the electorate", are trying to destroy Donald Trump.
