Whoops!

In a rambling phone interview on Fox and Friends, President Donald Trump accidentally said the quiet part out loud.

The President was doing what he perceived to be a victory lap on the show after the House Intelligence Committee overseeing the impeachment inquiry against him concluded its public hearings for the foreseeable future.


Shortly after peddling debunked conspiracy theories about Ukraine working with the Democratic National Convention to frame Russia for election meddling, the President, for once, told the truth.

Watch below.

When asked about Ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland's testimony that there was a quid pro quo in Trump's correspondence with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, Trump replied:

"That's total nonsense. I do want, always, corruption."

He proceeded to call Ukraine corrupt, and stressed that he was determined to weed out corruption.

But people couldn't help but notice his Freudian slip.

Weirdly enough, Trump has done this before.

Back in September, when discussing his now-infamous July 25 phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, Trump said:

"The conversation I had was largely congratulatory. It was largely corruption — all of the corruption taking place."

Watch below.

At least he's finally being honest—even if it's accidental.

Conspiracy theorists have long alleged the moon landing was fabricated by NASA in what they claim was an elaborate hoax—and Kardashian certainly made it clear where she stands in a video speaking to co-star Sarah Paulson on the set of the new Hulu drama All’s Fair.

Biggest Financial Mistakes People Make In Their 20s

Special Olympics Fires Back At Kid Rock With Powerful Statement After He Used 'The R-Word' To Describe Halloween Costume

MAGA singer Kid Rock was called out by Loretta Claiborne, the Chief Inspiration Officer of the Special Olympics, after he used the "r-word"—a known ableist slur—to describe his Halloween costume this year.

Kid Rock, whose real name is Robert James Ritchie, was speaking with Fox News host Jesse Watters when he donned a face mask and said he'd be going as a "r**ard" for Halloween. Watters had guessed he was dressed as Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases who spearheaded the nation's COVID-19 pandemic response.
