"Is Trump an economic ignoramus, or just a pathological liar? Both, most likely. It is precisely because his lies promote policies that wreak such havoc that news outlets, Democrats, and anyone who cares about truth must reject the notion that fact-checking no longer matters."

"Netanyahu could live stream himself kicking a baby Palestinian off a cliff and telling the camera he did it because he wants to commit genocide, and the next day Tammy Bruce [Trump’s State Department spokeswoman] would respond to all questions about the incident by yelling the word “Hamas!” with her fingers in her ears" She actually said: “every single thing that’s happening is a result of Hamas and its choices to drag that region down"

Trump indicated consumers could avoid tariffs by buying vehicles built entirely in the U.S., but industry experts say there’s not a single one with all-domestic parts and assembly."

When Trump speaks, always remember that he follows these 3 rules:

1) Always attack
2) Always deny
3) Always claim victory

Trump loses more than he wins, but the press enables him to get away with these lies.

As New Yorkers know, you should NEVER believe any statement he makes or think he commits to any agreement he signs.

Text on the left reads: "When Trump speaks always remember that he follows these rules: 1) Always attack 2) Always deny 3) Always claim victory Trump loses more than he wins, but the press enables him to follow these rules."

@plagiarismtoday

Note that this is largely disinformation. His thesis supervisor at Oxford issued a statement describing it and her conclusion that it is normal citations practice - he cited publications dozens of times, and missed adding a footnote for another cite to the same paper elsewhere in the thesis, etc.

She stated unequivocally that it was not plagiarism in any sense of the word, much less academic malpractice - quote "no evidence of plagiarism in the thesis".

If people want to criticize Carney, that's fine, but they need to do it with facts, not lies.
