PROTECT YOUR DNA WITH QUANTUM TECHNOLOGY
Orgo-Life the new way to the future Advertising by AdpathwayDuring his Sunday morning torrent of Truth Social posts, Trump amplified a headline about his perceived nemesis, former President Barack Obama.
The problem is that the headline is from a satirical news website that published it nine months ago.
The article by the Dunning-Kruger Times says that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) ― an agency created by Trump’s own administration ― halted a $2.6 million annual payment to the former president for “royalties associated with Obamacare.”
Trump posted a screenshot Sunday on Truth Social of what appears to be an X post about the fictional article, pairing it with a one-word message: “WOW!”
A spokesperson for the White House did not immediately return HuffPost’s request for comment on whether the president was aware the article is from a satirical news site named after the cognitive bias in which someone wrongly overestimates their own competence.
In its “About Us” page, the Dunning-Kruger Times says it’s a subsidiary of the “America’s Last Line of Defense” (ALLOD) network of “parody, satire and tomfoolery, or as Snopes called it before they lost their war on satire: Junk News.”
“Everything on this website is fiction. It is not a lie and it is not fake news because it is not real,” the site reads. “If you believe that it is real, you should have your head examined.”
The site also says that it calls ALLOD’s conservative fans “fragile, frightened, mostly older caucasian Americans” who “believe nearly anything.”

“While we go out of our way to educate them that not everything they agree with is true, they are still old, typically ignorant and again – very afraid of everything,” it reads.
