Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Wednesday, December 31, 2025

President Donald Trump has been mocked online after he appeared to confuse a bald eagle with a falcon. Trump shared a post on Truth Social on the evening of Tuesday, December 30, which showed a dead bird lying in front of a windmill. The post read, "Windmills are killing all of our beautiful Bald Eagles!" However, the image used in that post was taken in Israel, rather than the United States, and shows a falcon, rather than an eagle, and is dated to 2017. In response to the post, there has been a wave of criticism and mockery directed at Trump. The left-wing media network MeidasTouch replied directly to the U.S. Department of Energy and wrote, "Why are you posting images of dead falcons in Israel from 2017?" Spencer Hakimian, the founder of Tolou Capital management, meanwhile, wrote on X in a post viewed over 140,000 times, "Grandpa is drinking again."
