White House Wired for Happy Trump News

May 2, 2025 Pensito Editors

If you’ve read, heard or watched the political or business news lately, you’ve probably noticed something — it’s mostly bad. Like, really bad.

But fear not! There is good news out there about the Trump administration and its historic accomplishments in its first 100 days, and you can find it on the White House Wire.

If you noticed the WHWire looks a bit like the Drudge Report, you’d be right. Matt Drudge noticed and trolled the White House on his site with: “Developing: Trump launching his own Drudge Report using taxpayer dollars!”

The content on WHWire runs the gamut from fawningly sucking up to the president to downright fabrications. Here are some headlines:

“KENNY CODY: Pete Hegseth’s accomplishments in first 100 days are historically transformative” published on HumanEvents.com

“JD Vance: What President Trump achieved in his first 100 days” An op-ed in where else but Jeff Bezos’ Washington Post.

“The beginning of Trump’s ‘golden age’ is here and putting ‘more money’ in your pocket, labor secretary says” on FOX Business

And because sometimes the supply of happy Trump news runs a little thin, the White House posts its own take on current events, with “JOBS BOOM: More Americans Working for Higher Pay,” a press release that quotes Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt as saying: “This is the second month in a row where the jobs report has beat expectations. Wages are continuing to rise and labor force participation is increasing. This is exactly what we want to see. More Americans working for higher wages. More winning is on the way!”

So, if the bad old news gets you down, hop on over to the White House Wire, where the news is always positive, the people are all white and the women are all blondes.

“For quite long periods, at any rate, people can remain undisturbed by obvious lies, either because they simply forget what is said from day to day or because they are under such a constant propaganda bombardment that they become anaesthetized to the whole business.”

— George Orwell, writing in “As I Please” in 1944.

The Coming Summer of Propaganda

May 28, 2019 Buck Banks

“President George W. Bush once said that to get a message across, you had to repeat it over and over, ‘to kind of catapult the propaganda.’ President Trump must have been paying attention. … I predict this will be a summer of nonstop, shameless propaganda from Trump and his minions. It will be clumsy, ridiculous and pathetic — but don’t ignore it. Call it out. Laugh at it. Recognize it for what it is: a sign not of strength but of fear.”

— Eugene Robinson

Propaganda: The Real Source of Trump’s Power

June 29, 2018 Buck Banks

“Conservative media could take its cues from the party’s congressional leadership, but its most influential figures have personal ties to the president. As Gabriel Sherman has reported, Trump communicates so frequently with Fox News he is serving in some sense as its de facto editorial director. To the extent Trump deserves credit for his takeover of the party, it is through his canny playing of the inside media game, wooing powerful insiders in the right-wing media to make him (rather than Paul Ryan or Mitch McConnell) the protagonist of their drama.”
