Trump Speech Facetune 2016
Trump Speech Facetune 2017

Joe Biden will tonight give his first major speech to Congress, focusing on American families and the coronavirus rescue plan. The prime-time address, which is scheduled for 9pm ET (12am GMT), comes as the president approaches his 100th day in office. Just ask Anthony Weiner. But according to an article in the New York Times (of course!), with the coming of the quarantine, sending photos of one’s genitalia or secondary sex characteristics to.

Perhaps the most unexpected side effect of the pandemic has been watching “Covid Casablanca” Dubai become Head Office for anyone making their living as an influencer.

People in the UK are dying in record numbers, businesses are folding leaving their owners at a loss to pay their mortgages while employees of major companies continue to work at home.

During Trump’s impeachment trial in February 2021, Republicans used clips of Waters objecting to the 2016 Electoral College results and pledging to impeach Trump shortly after his election as evidence that Trump’s rhetoric on and before Jan.

Across the country flatmates have worked from home squished round their dining room tables since March, while working parents once again are juggling home schooling with full time jobs.

This weekend, restrictions are expected to increase again, which could mean takeaways will close as well as businesses like estate agents and markets.

And yet, if you are rich and have a social media following of 100k + it appears you think the rules do not apply and you can jet off to HQ Dubai – just as long as you remember to pack your laptop.

On Christmas Day, TOWIE star Yazmin Oukhellou posted photograph herself (almost always herself, almost never with anyone else) working hard pouting next to a Santa, no mask, no social distancing.

However, her boyfriend, fellow entrepreneur, James Lock did upload a picture of what seemed to be a spreadsheet on his laptop screen as he lounged by the pool in a pair of magical sunglasses that I know I would have appreciated when I tried to use my laptop outdoors in the summer.

“We are here for work purposes, for business,” Yazmin explained, adding: “Obviously we’ll make the most of it while we’re here as well.”

Obviously.

While the average UK citizen can’t go down certain aisles in their local supermarket, the stars of Geordie Shore can ring in the New Year, some necking shots and dancing mask-free, as it’s business as usual over in Dubai.

‘F*** 2020!’ Chloe Ferry shouted for the fans watching at home holed up in quarantine away from their families with no one but Jools Holland for company.

On the day that a woman was fined for travelling 10 miles to speak to her elderly mother through the window of her care home, the reality star showed fans round her dedicated Dubai “spon room” where she conducts her business of selling laxatives to teenagers.

The essential business of an influencer is often flogging stuff to impressionable people via the medium of filtered and Facetuned photos of their excessively cosmetically enhanced bodies and faces.

For clarity, their overpaid work is not specific to Dubai and their line of work is often as fake as their lips and boobs.

These stars could plug Toilet Duck from their downstairs loo and would receive their big bucks from the brand thanks to their instant captive audience.

Appearing on a hit reality show gets you social media followers and boom, just like that, you have influence for as long as you have followers.

Which is presumably why none of them will be put off travelling while they can quarantine for 10 days after arriving back in the UK.

Close the borders, and I’m sure Chloe Ferry can “spon” her new false eyelashes at home in Newcastle.

But Dubai is lovely this time of year and full of restaurants that are not only open but that offer gold leaf steak, so why not?

Meanwhile, Dubai cases are rising and have spiked considerably since December with the fine for a flouting the rules being £500 – probably around half a post of a new sandal to some influencers.

As their following struggle to adjust to months more of restrictions, and finances have been hit hard it’s insensitive at best morally bankrupt at worst to even be sharing any needless sponsored content at all.

If you want to take a look from their aforementioned “business perspective”, these stints in Dubai are alienating their following, who are growing increasingly frustrated and confused in the comments sections of their posts from the Emirate state.

Love Island’s Laura Anderson recently spoke of her plight, pleading with fans that the life of a globetrotting, bikini sporting, cocktail sipping influencer is “hard” and she deserves our sympathy.

Next they might be insisting to be put at the front of the queue for vaccinations for the sake of furry flip flops wearers everywhere.

In the meantime, let the silver lining of this ignorance and selfishness be that it proves enough to persuade fans to look elsewhere for their influence.

As the Republican National Convention begins today, we present here a rundown of President Donald Trump’s repeated false and misleading claims during the 2020 campaign.

If Trump’s recent speeches are a guide, he may well repeat some of these claims during convention remarks this week. His campaign has said Trump will speak at some point every night, in addition to the nominee’s traditional acceptance speech on Thursday.

Last week, we presented a similar roundup of claims made by the Democratic nominee, Joe Biden, in advance of that party’s convention.

Claims are grouped by subject matter. For more on each statement, follow the links to our full stories.

Economy

At an Aug. 19 press briefing, the president repeated one of his favorite talking points: “Don’t forget, until the China virus came in, we had the greatest economy in the history of the world.” This is simply false and constantly repeating it doesn’t make it so.

The president likes to point to the stock market as a measure of economic success. But the stock market isn’t the economy. Real (inflation-adjusted) gross domestic product measures economic growth. Prior to the pandemic, the economy grew by 2.2% last year, down from 3% in 2018 — which was the largest rate of growth under Trump, according to revised figures from the Bureau of Economic Analysis. Over the last 39 years — dating to Ronald Reagan’s presidency — the nation’s real economic growth has exceeded Trump’s peak year of 3% 17 times, including most recently under then-President Barack Obama in 2015.

At an Aug. 18 ceremony marking the 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment, which gave women the right to vote, Trump repeated a meaningless boast that prior to the pandemic, “we had 160 million people working. We’ve never even been close to that.” As we’ve written, that’s to be expected. The number of employed Americans generally increases with population growth — except when there are economic downturns, such as the Great Recession that started in December 2007 and now during the pandemic.

Trump also often exaggerates the peak employment number. It’s not 160 million, as he said. It peaked at 152.5 million in February. As of July, there were 139.6 million people employed — the fewest since October 2014, when it was 139.8 million, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

In his bid for reelection, Trump has promised a big economic comeback — a “super V” recovery, as he said in an Aug. 21 speech to conservatives — unless Biden wins and raises taxes. At an Aug. 17 campaign speech in Wisconsin, Trump promised that “you’re going to have an even greater year next year,” before falsely claiming “unless somebody comes in and quadruples your taxes. In which case it’s called the depression folks.”

It’s true that Biden proposes to raise an additional $4 trillion in taxes over the next decade, but the increases would fall mainly on very high-income earners and corporations, and would not nearly double, let alone triple or quadruple, people’s taxes at any income level (on average), according to analyses of Biden’s plan by the Penn Wharton Budget Model, Tax Policy Center and Tax Foundation.

“PWBM’s analysis projects that the Biden tax plan would not double anyone’s taxes, even the highest earners,” Kent Smetters, a professor of business economics and public policy at the University of Pennsylvania’s
