Trump’s inner circle didn’t just approve his biggest claims—they repeated them in public regardless of facts. Recent analysis points to a pattern where leading figures adjust reality to match the president’s version. One example is a top adviser’s claim this month that credit card spending is at rec
Trump is set to meet Xi Jinping this week, hoping Beijing will help end the costly war in Iran. The president expects China to push Tehran back to negotiations, but Beijing may have other priorities.
