Note the report in column2: "Sea Battle Reported Off Brazil" |
(I can find no evidence that such a battle took place. The report states that a U.S. Navy ship was searching for the vessel that sank the tanker I. C. White, but it was sunk by U-66, not a surface ship.)

Note the report in column 1: "Germans Have Lost Over 3,000,000" |
(One Mr. Scherbakov, described as the Director of the Russian Information Bureau, again making the false claim that the Germans have lost millions in the Russian campaign. This is classic propaganda, designed to demoralize the Germans who happen to read it and to build up the confidence of the Russian and Allied civilians, of course, the Russian officials knew it was a lie. According to Wikipedia, casualties in Operation Barbarossa between June 22, 1941 until Dec. 5, 1941 were; German casualties; 186,542 killed 40,157 missing 655,179 wounded.

Also note the report in column 6: "Hurricane Crosses Florida in 4 Hours; Causes Little Damage" |
(Days before the anniversary of this hurricane hitting Florida, Hurricane Ian crossed the state in 2022 causing billions of dollars in damage. The death toll is currently over 100, but is not final. A terrible tragedy for Floridians and Americans, but it was not the tragedy that was utmost in the mind of President Biden. Speaking in Florida today, from the site of the disaster, he said "I think the one thing this has finally ended, it the discussion about whether or not there's climate change and we should do something about it." But wait Uncle Joe, you and your party just stole trillions from the American people in the so-called "Inflation Reduction Act" which we were told was finally the bill that would deal with climate change. Now did you forget about that? You can't double dip, you have stolen enough money for this phony climate change hoax, no more. This one storm [Ian] is not proof of anything except the Biden's willingness to lie to the America public.) |
