Viral Trump “Fart” Video Has the Internet Holding Its Nose

A bizarre video making the rounds online claims President Donald Trump let one rip during a White House meeting — with Pete Hegseth and Marco Rubio supposedly looking like they were suddenly reconsidering their seating assignments.

There’s just one problem: there’s no reliable evidence Trump actually farted. Similar viral Trump clips have been debunked after fact-checkers compared them with original White House and C-SPAN footage and found that the flatulence audio had been digitally added.

So while social media is having a field day with “dirty diaper” jokes, the safest conclusion is considerably less explosive:

The internet may have smelled a story — but somebody apparently supplied the sound effects. 😂

And the longstanding online claim that Trump wears adult diapers remains unsubstantiated.

YIKES: U.S. Envoy’s Bizarre Putin Compliment Raises Eyebrows During Ukraine War Talks

In a moment that sounded more like a retirement toast than a meeting about Europe’s deadliest war in generations, U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff told Vladimir Putin they would someday look back on their “incredible stories” and “incredible memories” — with Putin’s memories “right at the top.” The remark came as Witkoff and Jared Kushner met with Putin in Moscow for more than three hours to discuss ending Russia’s war in Ukraine.

The timing was striking. Russia’s invasion has lasted more than four years, with enormous destruction and civilian casualties, and major disagreements remain over Moscow’s demands that Ukraine surrender territory and abandon NATO ambitions. Ukraine rejects those conditions as unacceptable.

The Kremlin called the talks useful, but no breakthrough was announced.

For an envoy supposed to be negotiating an end to a brutal war, talking to Putin about the “incredible memories” he’ll have from it was, at minimum, a remarkably strange choice of words.

Shocking Trump-Epstein Development: Ted Cruz Reveals Oval Office Blowup

Sen. Ted Cruz says he personally witnessed Donald Trump erupt in anger after aide Natalie Harp handed the president a printed copy of Elon Musk’s June 2025 post alleging Trump appeared in unreleased Jeffrey Epstein records.

Cruz told the PBD Podcast that Trump’s “knuckles turn[ed] white” as he read the post and became so angry that their Oval Office meeting about school choice essentially ended. Cruz described the episode as a “hand gr***de thrown in the middle of everything.”

Musk’s deleted post also alleged Epstein records were being withheld because of Trump. That allegation has not by itself established wrongdoing by Trump, and appearing in Epstein-related records would not alone prove criminal conduct. Musk later deleted the post.

What makes the account noteworthy is that it comes from Cruz, a Republican senator and Trump ally who says he was sitting in the Oval Office when it happened.
