On Sunday, September 13, President Trump turned heads when he claimed on Twitter to have won the "Bay of Pigs Award."

The internet was quick to point out to the President that there was no such thing as a "Bay of Pigs Award," and, if there was, it wouldn't be something to be proud of.

The Bay of Pigs invasion was not something to be proud of.



The internet was pretty skeptical of Trump's new "award."



The President has once again revealed just how little he knows and understands about U.S. history.



CNN's Daniel Dale reports that Trump was likely referring to an endorsement he received from the Bay of Pigs Veterans Association. Dale wrote:

"For those confused by Trump's claim he got the 'highly honored Bay of Pigs Award': He got an endorsement in 2016 from the Bay of Pigs Veterans Association. It's not an award. He has a long history of turning endorsements and other non-awards into awards."



Nearly every day, it seems that President Trump is shooting his mouth off on Twitter about some crazy lie.



Trump's strange boast may come back to hurt him more than help him.


Sorry about your fictional award, President Trump.

Don't worry, you still remind many people of the Bay of Pigs every time you talk foreign policy.

Conservative Tries To Claim Disney+ Show Is Somehow Satanic Due To Joke—And Gets Instantly Fact-Checked

It's the holidays again, which of course means the yearly tradition of Christians having a meltdown about supposedly being persecuted by the existence of non-Jesusy Christmas stuff is back with a vengeance.

But the latest flap online is really a doozy in its audacity both because it's incredibly dumb and also a lie, obviously posted as a purposeful attempt to get attention.

Massachusetts Catholic Church Angers Conservatives With Its Brutal ICE-Themed Nativity Scene

The Christian Bible teaches that the Holy Family—Joseph, Mary, and Jesus—were residents of the Herodian ruled Nazareth, Galilee. Having traveled back to Joseph's ancestral home—Roman ruled Bethlehem, Judea—for the census, Mary and Joseph, in modern American parlance, would have been homeless immigrants/tourists having an "anchor baby" at the time of Jesus' birth.

While Joseph considered Galilee his immediate family's home, the trio would eventually flee to Egypt as refugees to escape from King Herod.

Trump Ripped After Forcing National Parks To Drop Free Entry On MLK Day And Juneteenth For Infuriating Reason

President Donald Trump was criticized after the National Park Service announced it will be dropping Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Juneteenth for next year's calendar of free-entry days and adding Trump's birthday, which happens to fall on Flag Day, on June 14.

Last month, the Department of the Interior unveiled changes to what it now calls its “resident-only patriotic fee-free days,” expanding the calendar to include new dates like the Fourth of July weekend and President Theodore Roosevelt’s birthday, while dropping others that had honored the department itself, including the Bureau of Land Management’s anniversary.
