People Bring Receipts After White House Claims Photo Of Trump Asleep During Oval Office Event Was Just Him 'Blinking'
May 12, 2026
After President Donald Trump appeared to fall asleep during an event on maternal health in the Oval Office on Monday, people brought the receipts when an official White House account claimed he was simply "blinking."
The event was used to launch moms.gov, a new federal resource hub focused on prenatal care, nutrition, and postpartum support, along with information on employer fertility benefits and expanded childcare options, including assistance for stay-at-home parents.
Idrees Ali, the national security correspondent for Reuters, shared a photo snapped by his colleague Evelyn Hockstein that shows Trump with his eyes closed during the event, to which the Rapid Response 47 account replied:
"He was blinking, you absolute moron."
You can see the post below.
But the issue is that Trump has come under scrutiny for falling asleep multiple times in the past.
Trump, trying to cover for always falling asleep during meetings and events, recently told The Wall Street Journal that photographers "take a picture of me blinking, blinking, and they’ll catch me with the blink."
He was also mocked after he explained to New York Magazine that the reason why he's constantly photographed with his eyes closed is not because he's sleeping but because the meetings he attends are "boring as hell."
Trump said he has to "sit back and listen, and I move my hand so that people will know I'm listening" and that while he is "hearing every word," he nonetheless "can't wait to get out."
Between all of these obvious signs of age-related decline—including strange bruises on his hands and neck—people have rejected the White House's narrative, sharing video that contradicts their claim.
Trump, who turns 80 in June, gets very defensive when questioned about his physical and cognitive health—and he even went so far as to jokingly claim recently that he's "not a senior" citizen. In the United States, anyone over the age of 65 is considered a senior citizen.
Of course, as with all things "Dozy Don," every accusation is ultimately a confession.

Dr. Oz Just Made An Alarming Comment About Fertility Rates That Sounds Straight Out Of 'The Handmaid's Tale'
May 12, 2026
Dr. Mehmet Oz, President Donald Trump's administrator of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, made an alarming comment about fertility rates, declaring that 1 in 3 Americans are "under-babied."
In the United States, infertility affects roughly 9% of men and 11% of women, while globally the figure is estimated at about one in six people.
And Oz creeped out critics with the following remark:
"Let me speak a little bit of the reality that 1 in 3 Americans are under-babied. What does under-babied mean? That means you either have no children or you have less children than you would want to have."
"We have a crisis that's causing the fertility rate to drop below 1.5. Replacement rate is 2.1. We're way below what we need just to replace the people that we have in America."
You can hear what he said in the video below.
Oz's comments inspired comparisons to The Handmaid's Tale, a novel by Canadian author Margaret Atwood that was written at the height of the Reagan administration and satirized political, social, and religious trends of the 1980s.
The book, published in 1985, was inspired at least in part by the Islamic Revolution in Iran in 1979. The overthrow of the Shah's rule saw a theocracy established that subjugated women in a strict patriarchal society, gutted female agency and individuality in addition to reproductive rights, and limited all the other ways women can assert their independence.
The book was then famously turned into a critically acclaimed series on Hulu at the beginning of Trump's first presidency. The Testaments, a sequel written by Atwood, has also been adapted by Hulu, premiering earlier this year.
Others have condemned the proposal, pointing out that the economic reality for many Americans means they're not thinking about having children while contending with a nationwide affordability crisis and a host of other issues that have led many people to believe the U.S. is an increasingly inhospitable place to raise children.
Oz isn’t the only official in the Trump administration emphasizing family growth.
Vice President J.D. Vance echoed similar sentiments, stating in a speech last year that he wants Americans to have more babies. This focus on boosting the country’s birth rate aligns with broader policy shifts that prioritize families in federal funding decisions.
Vance said the U.S. needs “a culture that celebrates life at all stages, one that recognizes and truly believes that the benchmark of national success is not our GDP number or our stock market, but whether people feel that they can raise thriving and healthy families in our country."
Last year, the New York Times reported that the Trump administration "has been hearing out a chorus of ideas in recent weeks for persuading Americans to get married and have more children" and that one proposal shared with aides "would give a $5,000 cash 'baby bonus' to every American mother after delivery."

Stephen King Just Said What We're All Thinking After Trump Admin Released First Batch Of UFO Files
May 12, 2026
Horror icon Stephen King said what is on everyone's mind after President Donald Trump's administration released the first batch of files related to UFO sightings.
Earlier this year, Trump issued an order to different agencies to "begin the process of identifying and releasing government files on aliens and extraterrestrial life."
The documents released by the Pentagon include accounts of unidentified objects observed during NASA missions, tips submitted to the FBI, and images and videos tied to more recent sightings, including incidents reported in the Middle East.
The move has been celebrated by members of the administration, including Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who said his department is "in lockstep with President Trump to bring unprecedented transparency regarding our government's understanding of Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena."
But King is interested in a different kind of "unprecedented transparency," tweeting the following message in response to this news:
"Never mind the UFO files. Release the Epstein files."
You can see his post below.
Trump has done everything he can to dismiss or downplay the outrage surrounding the documents, which are said to contain detailed lists of some of his former friend and associate Jeffrey Epstein's most high-profile clients and enablers. The late disgraced financier was a convicted pedophile and sex trafficker.
The Justice Department recently released about 3 million new documents collected as part of its years' long investigation into Epstein; it includes more than 5,300 documents containing upwards of 38,000 mentions of Trump, his wife, his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida, and related terms.
The DOJ said this release would be the final tranche of Epstein-related files required under the law, but the disclosures have instead sparked renewed outrage over the government’s failure to deliver transparency or accountability for Epstein’s many survivors.
Just days ago, a purported suicide note allegedly written by Epstein before his 2019 death in jail was released by a federal judge, prompting sharply divided reactions over its authenticity.
Epstein’s brother, Mark Epstein, dismissed the document as a “forgery,” while handwriting experts cited in reports said the writing appears highly consistent with the note authorities previously said was found in Epstein’s jail cell following his death by suicide.
Many concurred with King.
King's response comes several months after the liberal outlet Meidas Touch resurfaced late-night host Seth Meyers' joke predicting that Trump would pivot to talking about the existence of aliens to distract from his role in the Epstein files.
Meyers said the following after playing footage of Trump explicitly ordering Republicans to accuse former President Barack Obama of election fraud when asked about Epstein:
“It’s like watching a magic trick and it’s also a sh***y trick. But Trump seemed confident that this tactic would work.” ...
“Whatever is in those Epstein files must be really f**king bad. They must be finding so many mentions of Trump they’re going to have to change the name to the Trump files featuring Jeffrey Epstein."
"They’re so desperate to distract everyone, they’re claiming that Barack Obama is guilty of treasonous conspiracy and leading a coup against Trump. Barack Obama? The guy couldn’t even get away with smoking a cigarette in his own house.”
“I honestly think we’re just one Epstein story away from Trump announcing that UFOs are real."
He couldn't have been more spot-on if he'd tried.

Don Jr.'s Old Tweet Praising His Father For Avoiding War With Iran Just Resurfaced—And It's Aged Like Milk
May 12, 2026
As President Donald Trump's war with Iran rages on, his son Donald Trump Jr. is facing criticism after an old tweet he wrote praising his father for avoiding war with Iran resurfaced.
Back in April 2024, the president's eldest son wrote the following on X:
"Remember when they said Trump would get us into a full-blown war with Iran? Times like these should make us all realize how lucky we were to have Trump, his strength and his resolve."
You can see the post below, which was marked with a perfectly succinct Community Note acknowledging Trump "got us into a war with Iran" that links to a timeline of the war's events from February 28, the day the Trump administration attacked Iran in a joint operation with Israel.
The resurfaced post came as Trump rejected Iran’s latest response to U.S. proposals aimed at ending the war, calling Tehran’s terms “totally unacceptable.”
According to Tasnim News Agency, Iran’s proposal—reportedly delivered through Pakistan, which has acted as a mediator—called for an immediate halt to fighting on all fronts, an end to the U.S. naval blockade of Iranian ports, and guarantees against future attacks on Iran.
The U.S. proposal, by contrast, reportedly included demands such as suspending Iranian nuclear enrichment, restoring free passage through the Strait of Hormuz, and lifting sanctions.
Trump told reporters at the White House on Monday that "the ceasefire is on massive life support... when the doctor walks in and says, 'Sir, your loved one has approximately a 1 percent chance of living.'" He called Iran's leaders "very dishonourable people" and said he "didn't even finish reading" the "piece of garbage" proposal their representatives shared with U.S. negotiators.
Considering what's happened just in the last couple of months—to say nothing of the last few days—Trump Jr.'s remarks have aged like milk.
Trump Jr.'s tweet resurfaced just a couple of months after similar remarks from White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller attracted attention.
Following the Trump administration's attack on Tehran, a post Miller wrote on November 1, 2024, resurfaced on X; in it, he suggested that former Vice President Kamala Harris—then the Democratic Party nominee—would start World War III due to her ties to former Wyoming Republican Representative Liz Cheney, who endorsed her campaign.
Miller claimed "anyone still gullible enough to fall for scummy media hoaxes: Trump said warmongering neocons love sending your kids to die for wars they would never fight themselves. Miller claimed Cheney "wants to invade the whole Middle East."
He ignored the fact that Cheney, the daughter of the late former Vice President Dick Cheney, who spearheaded the "War on Terror," aligned herself with Harris to publicly criticize Trump over what they described as his threats to democratic norms.
Cheney previously chaired the House Select Committee that investigated the January 6, 2021, assault on the U.S. Capitol, when a mob of Trump supporters stormed the building based on false claims that the election had been stolen.

Savannah Guthrie Shares Heartfelt Video Of Her Missing Mom On Mother's Day: 'We Miss You With Every Breath'
May 11, 2026
Today co-host Savannah Guthrie's mother, 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie, was declared missing on February 1, 2026, after she did not routinely arrive at church that morning, and a well-check confirmed that her home was empty and the door was left wide open.
Due to her need for multiple medications, including for her pacemaker, and her limited mobility, the Pima County Police Department deemed her case a high priority, soon welcoming the help of the FBI.
Despite Savannah Guthrie and her older sister, Annie, and older brother, Camron, making multiple plea videos that were circulated online, as well as monetary offers for information, Nancy has been missing ever since.
Two months after her mother went missing, Guthrie returned to her position as co-host on the Today show, thanking audiences for their thoughts and prayers, but still pleading for anyone with information to come forward, so the family could finally have answers and closure and bring their dear mother home.
On Mother's Day, 98 days after her mother's disappearance, Guthrie shared a touching compilation of photographs and video clips to celebrate her memory, her family's love for her, and the promise that they would never stop looking for her.
In the caption, Savannah wrote to her mother:
"Mother. Daughter. Sister. Nonie."
"We miss you with every breath."
"We will never stop looking for you. We will never be at peace until we find you."
To her Instagram audience, Savannah wrote:
"We need help."
"Someone knows something that can make the difference."
"Call 1800CALLFBI. You can be anonymous, and the reward remains available."
"Please keep praying."
"Bring her home."

Since Nancy Guthrie's initial disappearance somewhere between late at night on January 31 and in the early hours of February 1, 2026, few new details have emerged.
It appears that Nancy was abducted from her home by a person who appeared to be male, and her door was left open. Her pacemaker, which was connected to an app on her phone, was also disconnected after her abduction.
The Guthrie family is clearly grieving, and they want nothing more than to bring their beloved mother home.
