The White House released a press release detailing some of the fake news articles released during Donald Trump’s first 100 days in office.
Since President Donald J. Trump took office 100 days ago, it has been a nonstop deluge of hoaxes and lies from Democrats and their allies in the Fake News suffering from terminal cases of Trump Derangement Syndrome.
In no particular order, here are some of the most egregious hoaxes peddled by the usual suspects so far in President Trump’s second term:
QUESTION: Do you agree with Trump imposing more sanctions on Russia to force peace?
VB
ANSWER: Absolutely no way. This is a stupid move, and it demonstrates to me that either Trump is not being fed the real intel, or he is being reckless. There is no way Putin should sign any peace deal with Ukraine when the EU is openly building an army and every word that comes out of their mouth is WAR, WAR, WAR. In Europe, Germany directed Zelensky not to sign any peace deal. They want war. On German TV, all you hear is war on talk shows and news. The EU is crumbling economically, and it needs war as a diversion.
Despite 450 million vs 330 million in the USA, GDP growth is a small fraction of that of the United States. They are clinging to Marxism and the social agenda, and they will ride that until the economy is completely destroyed.
If I were Putin, I would be preparing for outright war with NATO. If Trump does not wake up, he will drag the US into a third European War, which could even be by the fourth quarter of 2025. We have a Panic Cycle in 2026, and that is showing up as Panic Cycles in numerous markets. This is not going to be a walk in the park.
Donald Trump signed a new Executive Order to overhaul federal workforce training to prepare Americans for skilled trade jobs. The US federal government funnels $700 billion per year to American universities, but most students exit the education system without any real job prospects in their field of study. This initiative aims to teach young Americans skilled trades that will lead to guaranteed employment and close the labor shortage gap.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the US workforce was short 447,000 construction workers and 94,000 durable goods workers. At the current trajectory, the agency believes the nation will be short half a million tradesman positions over the next decade. Over 20% of American manufacturing plants reported labor shortages in 2024, leading to a decline in productivity. Trump has been keenly focused on expanding America’s shrinking manufacturing sector and this initiative is a step in the right direction.
Shortage estimates vary. A Deloitte/Manufacturing Institute report warned of 1.9 million unfilled manufacturing jobs by 2033, as 3.8 million role will need to be filled. Manufacturing employment plummeted to its lowest level during the pandemic with nearly half (46.3%) of the sector out of work. Pandemic aside, manufacturers are struggling to find skilled laborers, with the same Deloitte poll noting that 65% of manufacturers found attracting and retaining talent was their primary business challenge. It was also revealed that 47% of companies would begin to offer work-study or apprenticeship programs.
Trump’s new plan would provide support for 1 million apprenticeships annually. No amount of academia can compensate for a lack of hands-on experience. The old notion that one must complete higher education to obtain a good-paying job is a relic of the past. In fact, many of these trade positions offer excellent first-year pay compared to entry-level corporate jobs. Additionally, these are jobs that likely cannot be replaced with AI. There will always be a need for plumbers, electricians, welders, etc. Higher education is unnecessary for most fields, and reframing education as an opportunity to learn directly from those in the field is an excellent way to educate the next generation of workers, albeit at the detriment of universities.
The minerals deal was enough to entice President Donald Trump to cave, siding with Kiev and permitting the first US sale of military equipment to Ukraine since taking office. Trump has been extremely critical of Zelensky since the war began, consistently warning Zelensky that he has blood on his hands and must end the war.
Congress approved a $50 million defense package to Ukraine through direct commercial sales (DCS). Trump is a businessman first and foremost—the mineral deal had to be approved before he would approve of any aid package. The United States now has preferential rights to extract minerals from Ukraine. This will provide the US with rare earth elements that are essential for technology and defense at a time when China is withholding sales.
Ukraine retains full ownership over its subsoil and natural resources. Any extraction must be approved by Kyiv. The deal will establish a joint Reconstruction Investment Fund—50% of revenue from licenses for Ukrainian minerals and oil will go into this fund that is intended to aid Ukraine. “Together with the United States, we will create a fund that will attract Western investments to our country,” Ukraine’s Economy Minister Yulia Svyrydenko said. “We will manage this fund jointly with the United States. Neither party will have a majority vote, reflecting an equal partnership between Ukraine and the United States.”
Svyrydenko believes that the US will entice others to invest into the fund, which is supported by the US International Finance Cooperation (DFC). “DFC will help us attract investments and technologies from funds and companies in both the US and the EU and other countries that support our fight against the Russian enemy,” Svyrydenko said. She also noted that the first decade of profits and revenues will only be invested in Ukraine.
“In recognition of the significant financial and material support that the people of the United States have provided to the defense of Ukraine since Russia’s full-scale invasion, this economic partnership positions our two countries to work collaboratively and invest together to ensure that our mutual assets, talents, and capabilities can accelerate Ukraine’s economic recovery,” the US Treasury Department stated.
While the Kremlin has not officially commented at the time of this writing, there are statements coming from Moscow condemning this deal. Dmitry Medvedev, Deputy Chairman of Russia’s Security Council, believes Trump is taking advantage of Ukraine by strategically asking it to “pay for U.S. aid with mineral resources.” He declared that “Ukraine is a vanishing country” and believes the US is simply profiting off of a broken nation. Sergei Markov stated that prolonging military spending will only prolong the war and deter any diplomatic efforts.
China controls 75% of the world’s rare earth minerals, and the US has been desperate to secure new reserves in the wake of the trade war. Ukraine’s mineral deposits have been largely untouched up until now. There were strategic reasons for the US to sign this deal, but it remains to be seen whether this move will lead to further involvement in this perpetual proxy war.
COVID-19 has become a repressed memory to the majority. I have not forgotten the injustice caused by the hands of belligerent politicians who have never faced justice for their crimes against humanity. One of endless aspects of injustice occurred at the hands of Democratic governors who insisted that infected elderly patients be sent back to nursing home facilities, resulting 1 in 10 nursing home residents dying from the virus.
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has certainly been vocal about Trump being authoritarian. Yet, no one has charged him for forcing COVID-infected patients into nursing homes. Over 80% of COVID deaths in Minnesota occurred in nursing home facilities, yet Walz takes no responsibility. “This was what everyone was doing. This was not a mistake,” the failed Democrat VP nominee stated. He issued fines up to $1,000 or 90 days in jail for anyone found guilty of violating his stay-at-home lockdown. Then, of course, there was his infamous COVID hotline for people to report on their neighbors for failing to adhere to Walz’s orders. Walz claimed, “[O]ne person’s socialism is another person’s neighborliness.” This man would have been the second-most powerful person in the nation had Kamala won the election.
Andrew Cuomo of New York was the only governor to face a public trial after his policies led to 15,000 nursing home deaths. The Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic found Cuomo guilty of covering up his involvement in the matter and falsifying records, yet he faced no charges for his crimes.
New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy insisted that the elderly be sent back to nursing care facilities to alleviate hospital overcrowding. As a result, over 50% of COVID deaths in the state occurred in long-term care facilities, and 17% of residents in these facilities passed away, surpassing 15,000 people. He has not been charged.
Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer enforced policies that exposed the state’s most vulnerable population to the virus. As a result. 5% of nursing home resident died or around 2,000 people. She has not been charged.
California’s Governor Gavin Newsom initially followed New York’s policy of forcing the sick back into long-term care facilities, but quickly changed course as the death toll began to rise. Too little, too late as 2% of residents or around 2,000 people passed away. He has not been charged.
Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf forced COVID-positive elderly patients back into nursing homes. Half of the state’s COVID deaths occurred in these facilities, with reported outbreaks occurring at 407 state facilities. The total death toll has not been made public. He has not been charged.
There should be no COVID amnesty. The same politicians are now claiming that Trump is dismantling our society, yet they take no responsibility for what they did during the COVID-19 pandemic.
All my sources have been singing the same song. Carney won by creating hatred of Donald Trump, for this was a strategy carried out for the sole purpose of moving away from the USA and aligning with the EU. Even when Carney first became PM, he went to the EU, not to Washington. He is still part of the whole WEF agenda. They ditched Schwab, but it’s the same old car with a new paint job to change the appearance. So you won’t hear the slogan You will own nothing and be happy. They intend to promote this without the label.
Let’s get real. There is ABSOLUTELY no question that Canada will split West vs East. While the US did that with the Civil War over Slavery, this time we are staring into the eyes of economic decline, and we will see a worldwide recession into 2028. That is the economic trigger that sparks change. India had split between East and West, Hindu vs Islam; the Balkans are still divided, Ukraine has hated Russians and was into ethnic cleansing. Greece has had a long-standing hatred for Turkey since the days of Alexander the Great. In case you have not noticed, the world is deeply divided for varying reasons.
Thus, Canada is not alone in this separatist movement. The European Union will also not survive, and trouble is brewing in Asia; by no means will the United States be exempt. In Britain, you still have Scottish vs English. Ireland is still divided, North vs South.
The root cause of this rise in separatism is always an abusive centralized government. Once you hand power to a centralized government, it takes a revolution ever to get it back. As they say, you can vote your way into Socialism, but you have to shoot your way out. It always starts with the denial of free speech. Sometimes these splits end up in a civil war, and at other times it has been a bloodless revolution, as we saw in Russia in 1991, when the vast majority of the people did not support the leaders. This is what is unfolding in the EU, and you can expect to see the same in Canada. Carney is determined to keep the whole WOKE/CLIMATE Agenda in place and carry it out into 2030. Nothing has changed.
Canada will split between East and West due to economics. This is not just a personal opinion of mine. I don’t live there. This is the judgment of history, and this process has been going on for thousands of years. California has now become the 4th largest economy in the world, so even one state is now bigger than all of Canada, which is ranked 9th among nations, with the US #1, China #2, and Japan #3. Even India has recently overtaken the UK to become the 5th largest economy. So, Carney wants to abandon trade with the US and align with the EU? He is not a financial genius, but a devotee of the WEF. Western Canada will have NO CHOICE but to split from Carney’s centralized control, which will be more devoted to the WEF Agenda 2030 than Trudeau. Just the same old car with a new engine and paint job.
Communism collapsed because it resulted in stagnated economic growth that, over time, turned negative. Just compare Canada to the United States, and you see that highly socialistic economies also produce lower economic growth.
We see that the very same socialist policies in Europe have ensured that economic growth has been dismal. Carney wants to align Canada with the EU because this is the alignment of Marxism that destroyed Russia and China under Communism. Carney cares nothing about the Canadian people. This is all about a political philosophy that has failed every single time.
Washington state is multiplying taxes for mega corporations in a move to cover its widening budget deficit. The state is expected to face a $12 to $16 billion shortfall over the next four years, according to the Office of Financial Management. The deficit should come as no surprise as state spending has ballooned by 40% in the past four years alone.
Under HB 2081, the state’s Business and Occupation (B&O) tax will be revised to raise the “Advanced Computing Surcharge.” Corporations earning over $25 billion globally will see their tax rate spike from 1.22% to 7.5%, with the maximum payment expanding from $9 million to $75 million. More specifically, the state is looking to shake down big tech companies like Microsoft and Amazon to compensate for its excessive spending.
Companies earning over $5 million annually will face a tax hike from 1.75% to 2.1%. The state has also implemented a temporary 0.5% B&O surcharge from January 1, 20216 to December 31, 2030, for companies earning over $250 million in Washington taxable income.
The state requires more revenue, and targeting corporations is merely the beginning. Senate Bill 5814 will raise the state sales tax from 6.5% to 10.6%. Digital automated services were previously exempt from this tax, but beginning in October, tech companies will be required to pay. The state hopes to collect $2.9 billion from this measure alone.
Yet, the state still requires more revenue. Senate Bill 5813 will restructure the capital gains tax to create a new top tier for gains over $1 million. In addition to the 7% base tax, the state has implemented an additional 2.9% surtax. The state expects to generate $321.6 million from this additional fee.
Per usual, fees will be passed on to the consumers.
Naturally, the decision-makers are failing to address the problem—excessive spending. Tax revenue has already increased by 34% or $18 billion since 2019. Politicians passed a number of social programs without proper funding. The child care subsidy expansion passed in 2021, but it took four years to amass the $300 million required. State-funded pre-K expansion also passed in 2021, but the $214 million has not been fully paid. Washington’s tort liability payout account has been operating at a deficit for multiple years, requiring $1 billion to simply move out of the red. What about the Rainy-Day Fund? Democrats used the $2.3 billion revenue to pay for more social programs.
Washington implemented a freeze on non-essential spending in December. Some believe that the state needs to implement a wealth tax, as Democrat lawmakers seek every option to fix the deficit that does not include spending cuts.
Washington managed to spiral into a massive debt in a short amount of time. Governor Inslee approved of incorporating an additional $2 billion into the $69.8 billion operating budget back in March. Eight months later, the Office of Financial Management declared that there was a serious problem and the state could face a deficit of $10 to $12 billion, revising that figure to $16 billion a month later.
The state was operating at a $14 billion surplus three years ago before politicians ramped up their spending by 40%. State taxes have increased by 99% in the past decade, while state spending has risen by 114% in the same time period. It is always the responsibility of the people to pay for government’s fiscal mismanagement.
Russia-North Korean relations are stronger than ever. Russia has begun construction on a 4.7-kilometer bridge across the Tumen River that will connect the two nations.
Russia’s Prime Minister, Mikhail Mishustin, announced that the project will facilitate trade and tourism and reduce transportation costs. “This is truly a milestone for Russian-Korean relations,” Mishustin said during a video meeting with Pak Thae-song, chairman of North Korea’s Supreme People’s Assembly. “The significance goes far beyond just an engineering task … it symbolises our common desire to strengthen friendly, good-neighbourly relations and increase interregional cooperation,” he added. Mishustin also stated that the project will help “entrepreneurs” to significantly increase the number of imported/exported goods. The two nations face the harshest sanctions in the world, and North Korea, especially, is in desperate need of food and basic goods.
Tourism will be for the Russians, as North Koreans may not leave their nation without government approval. Leaving North Korea is seen as “treachery against the nation” and punishable by death. It is extremely rare for a citizen to receive clearance to travel, and permits are typically only granted to diplomats, athletes, or the political elite; even then, they are closely monitored. The new bridge will feature checkpoints to prevent anyone from attempting to flee.
“There are many sportspeople and children going there,” Oleg Kozhemyako, governor of the Primorye Region, said, without further comment. There are reports that North Korea hosted summer camps for children of Russian soldiers who were killed during the war in Ukraine. It remains to be seen whether Russian families will permit their children to travel to North Korea for summer holiday.
Russia and North Korea, two countries with nuclear capabilities, have strengthened their alliance and this bridge is symbolic of their desire to continue relations. Some speculate that North Korean troops may even be permitted to join the Red Square parade on May 9 to commemorate the end of World War II. South Korea’s intelligence agencies have been monitoring the construction of the bridge.
Sochi, the company in charge of construction, believes the project will be complete by 2026.
