Is there a lying competition going on in the WH?
Speaking to Fox News on Monday, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said: “I was in the Oval with the president today. He spoke to Prime Minister Carney, who was very aggressively walking back some of the very unfortunate remarks he made at Davos.”
Carney told reporters in Ottawa on Tuesday that Bessent was incorrect:
“To be absolutely clear, and I said this to the president, I meant what I said in Davos,”
Who do you rate as the best liar in the WH?
(Side note: The World's Biggest Liar is an annual competition held at the Bridge Inn in Santon Bridge, Cumbria, England, honoring 19th-century landlord Will Ritson. Contestants have five minutes to tell the most convincing, entertaining lie, with winners receiving a trophy and local fame.
John Liar Graham has won the title 7 times.
Politicians and lawyers are banned, as they are deemed "too skilled". )
Real life example:
A duck named Donald Duck says "All ducks always lie. ...or .... Who you gonna believe, me or your lying eyes?"

China cancels all flights to Japan, warning its citizen not to travel to Japan Citing "a surge in crimes targeting Chinese citizens" and earthquakes, the Chinese foreign ministry said nationals "face serious security threats in Japan,"
On his way to China, Starmer made this comment:
"Like it or not, China matters for the UK," he declared ahead of the trip. "As one of the world's biggest economic players, a strategic and consistent relationship with them is firmly in our national interest.
That does not mean turning a blind eye to the challenges they pose - but engaging even where we disagree."
(Doesn't he not sound like Mark Carney?)
Will he do anything with China that will anger Trump to threaten UK with a Canada-like 100% tariff?
(Side note: lets face it, if Trump imposes 100% tariff on most countries, the net impact is the same as no tariff, the only difference is US consumers end up paying for more exoensive imported good.)

According to UK's Independent News:
"The United States could alter its decades-old North American Aerospace Defense Command deal with Canada should its government backtrack on the purchase of 88 Lockheed Martin F-35 fighter jets, the U.S. ambassador to Canada has warned.
In the latest back-and-forth between the U.S. and Canada over the deal, Ambassador Pete Hoekstra cautioned that if Canada purchased fewer fighter jets, the U.S. would “fill those gaps” in security concerns.
That could mean the U.S. would need to purchase more F-35 fighter jets for its own use and use them to intervene in Canadian airspace more frequently."
***It's SICK how a bully pretends to be Canada's “ Best friend” and just uses Canada (amongst many others) for its own good, at the same time parading itself ...
