Boss Hogg spewed the ‘same old shit, new audience’ at the UN, today…although it’s the same crap he spewed last time he was there.

UN members reject Trump’s speech, again Trump’s 37-minute speech was more than twice as long as the U.N. secretary-general had asked leaders to keep their remarks. Much of it resembled the typical speech at a White House event or one of his political rallies. He attacked former President   Joe Biden , repeated his lie that climate change is not happening, falsely claimed that investigations into his acceptance of Russian assistance to win in 2016 and his extortion of Ukraine in 2019 were “hoaxes,” and minimized the dangers presented by unchecked development of artificial intelligence. “These are the same people that are now saying that AI is going to kill us all, that robots are going to attack us, and that everything is going to be a total disaster. Same group of people,” he said. “This is the group that came up with the Russia, Russia, Russia hoax, the Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine hoax, climate change.” Trump delivered a similar lie- and grievance-packed address  a year ago , h...

  CNN’s Kaitlan Collins explained to President Donald Trump why she was covering his arrival at the U.N. in New York City amid his attempts to ban the outlet from the White House. Trump snapped at the broadcaster as he pitched up at the body’s headquarters ahead of his address before the U.N. General Assembly. “I’m surprised that CNN is here covering me,” Trump said, as Collins asked  about a poll  speaking to a lack of support for his war in Iran. “The United Nations let us in, sir,” Collins shot back. “You should not be here covering me,” the president continued, as he wants ONLY reporters who will write nothing but good about him, aka FOX reporters.

As always, the jerk was lying his ass off…

  FACT CHECK Fact-Checking Trump’s Speech at the United Nations President Trump’s remarks about oil reserves, the drug trade and his peace efforts contained falsehoods and exaggerations. The president repeated a number of claims that The New York Times has previously fact-checked: He  falsely  claimed to have ushered in $21 trillion in foreign investments. (This is almost double the White House’s own tally, which includes broad pledges and previously announced investments.) He  falsely  claimed to have signed the largest tax cuts in American history. (The tax cuts signed into law last summer rank sixth.) He claimed that there are “more Americans working today by far than ever before.” (This is a  meaningless statistic, given population growth.  The unemployment rate in August was currently a low 4.1 percent, which is higher than in January 2025, when he took office.) He  misleadingly  said that “we have more munitions than we could ever possi...
