In a recent message to America, Donald Trump boasted how dramatically gas prices have fallen, pointing out that the nation average price has now fallen under the $2.00 per gallon mark.
As anyone could have guessed, this is a lie; the average is now $3.165.
But what makes this noteworthy is that it took me less than a minute to find and open the AAA website linked above to determine the truth. And there is nothing special about my computer/Internet skills; this is something anyone age 6 to 96 could have done with equal speed. So why does Trump lie about things that the average first-grade kid can prove false?
All I can suggest is that his base accepts what he says, knowing full well that almost everything that comes out of his mouth is a lie. Truth has long since lost all value and relevance.
We have hundreds of convicted criminals on the streets due to Trump’s pardons. We have a quagmire in Iran due to Trump’s pointless and illegal war. The United States is viewed internationally with a blend of pity, contempt, and ridicule.
These were some dark days in U.S. history, but they seem bright and shiny in comparison to today.
Nixon didn’t storm the Capitol in an attempt to overthrow the government, nor did he hand out pardons for cash.

John Eastman, One of Trump’s Attorney Henchmen in an Attempt to Overthrow the U.S. Government, Is Disbarred
In April of this year, the California Supreme Court disbarred attorney John Charles Eastman. This after the State Bar Court Review Department in July 2025 affirmed the findings of the State Bar Court Hearing Department’s March 2024 recommendation, which found Eastman culpable of 10 out of 11 charges for egregious and deceitful conduct and recommended his disbarment.
Apparently, certain bodies within the United States are still trying to maintain justice here in America.
