British Embassy Forced to Respond After Rumors Of King Charles' Death Surfaces
The recent saga surrounding King Charles III took an alarming turn in a world where the truth can sometimes be stranger than fiction.
Russian media's false report of King Charles III's death has sparked significant controversy, highlighting the pervasive issue of fake news, Daily Mail reported.
The rumor mills began churning when Russian outlets, based on a disingenuously crafted statement, proclaimed the British monarch had succumbed to cancer complications. This claim, starkly devoid of truth, was purportedly issued by Buckingham Palace, setting the stage for a global misinformation spree.
The High Stakes of Verifying News Sources
Sputnik, among other Russian news entities, initially broadcast this baseless declaration. The stories proliferated rapidly, fueled by the credibility often afforded to established news organizations. Yet, these allegations stood no factual ground, having been concocted from a forgery.
In response, the British embassies in Moscow and Kyiv sprang into action. Utilizing X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, they categorically dismissed these assertions as falsehoods. Their swift counter-narrative was crucial in stemming the tide of misinformation.
The Ukrainian and British embassies stood united in affirming King Charles III's well-being. Despite the viral nature of the fake news, their clarifications began to pierce through the fog of deceit.
A Tale of Misinformation Unfolding
Gazeta.ru and several pro-Putin platforms, including RIA, Sputnik, Readkovka, and Mash, were instrumental in disseminating the phony report. The narrative detailed the monarch's alleged death "unexpectedly yesterday afternoon," captivating a global audience.
These misguided reports coincided with observations from some quarters, critiquing Russia's presidential election as less than forthright. Amid this politically charged backdrop, the British embassy's Telegram channel also joined the fray, declaring the information about the King's demise patently false.
Mash's article initially mirrored the fake Buckingham statement, delving into the King's ascension and purported ailment. However, a subsequent retraction admitted the falsehood of their earlier claims, marking a turning point in the narrative.
Official Reactions and the Quest for Truth
Maria Zakharova, a Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov spokeswoman, offered comments that added complexity to the saga. The incident prompted a series of corrections across independent and state Russian media, acknowledging the rumors' baseless nature.
A chronological recounting unveils how Russian media first ignited the rumor. Following the embassies' interventions, a domino effect of retractions ensued, illustrating the news ecosystem's volatile nature.
"Lack of diligent verification led to widespread propagation of a baseless claim," highlighted the British Embassy in Moscow. Their Kyiv counterpart echoed this sentiment, underscoring the importance of accurate information dissemination.
Lessons to Learn from This Tragedy
1. Always verify news from multiple, reliable sources before sharing. The rapid spread of misinformation about King Charles III's supposed death underscores the dangers of uncritical news consumption.
2. Critical thinking is key in the digital age. Question the origin of information, especially when it pertains to significant events or public figures.
3. Remember, no one is immune to being misled by fake news. However, awareness and skepticism can greatly mitigate the risk.
Why This Story Matters
This incident reaffirms the age-old adage of "don't believe everything you read" and underscores the societal split caused by misinformation. The communal responsibility to uphold truth becomes paramount in a world where news travels faster than fact-checking. It serves as a reminder of the fragile nature of public trust and the enduring need for vigilance in preserving it.
In conclusion, the debunked reports of King Charles III's death represent a cautionary tale in the information age. The rapid spread and subsequent correction of false news underscore the importance of credible journalism and the need for careful media consumption.
As society grapples with the challenges posed by misinformation, this episode is a stark reminder of the public's need for heightened media literacy and discernment.

Trump leads not just Biden, but also Gavin Newsom, Michelle Obama in Potential Match-ups:
Rumors have been rife for some time regarding the possibility that the Democratic Party would turn to former First Lady Michelle Obama to save itself from President Joe Biden's declining prospects, but according to a new Rasmussen Reports survey, such a move may not be the panacea many believe.
Unfortunately for liberals, Rasmussen notes that, at least as things currently stand, Former President Donald Trump is not only leading Biden in a head-to-head matchup, but he also tops two notable names often floated as potential substitutes for the presumptive Democratic nominee.
Trump leads Obama, Newsom
The news for Democrats in Rasmussen's recent survey of 912 likely voters brought little in the way of hope for Biden or for those some suggest are viable candidates to take his place for the November contest.
In the poll, which was conducted between March 5-7, Trump topped Biden by a margin of 49% to 41%, representing a two-point increase in the former president's lead over just the last month, as the Washington Examiner notes.
If those numbers were not enough to give Democrats real pause about his continued candidacy, the news only got worse from there.
In a hypothetical matchup with California Gov. Gavin Newsom, tapped by some as the future of the Democratic Party on the national scene, Trump leads by a staggering 17 points.
When it comes to a possible contest with Mrs. Obama, Trump's lead shrinks somewhat, but still stands at a commanding seven points, according to Rasmusen.
Obama rumors persist
The scuttlebutt about a possible Michelle Obama candidacy has been building for quite some time, with Texas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz having long voiced his belief that she was waiting in the wings to swoop in and salvage the Democrats' chances in the current cycle.
Following a recent podcast interview in which the former first lady discussed her fears for the country's future in the event the next election did not go well and touted her in-depth knowledge of the president's role, Cruz was even more convinced about what might lie ahead.
Cruz said that her tone on the podcast “does feel a little bit of a pitch of, 'hey guys, I'm here. I'm ready. I can step in, and I'm willing to do it.'”
Based on results from a straw poll taken at last month's Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), more than a few Republicans appeared to agree, with 47% of survey participants declaring their belief that Mrs. Obama would ultimately be the Democratic nominee, as Newsweek noted.
Denials abound
However, already well known for having previously hinted at her personal disinterest in ever seeking elected office, Mrs. Obama has once again attempted to quash discussion of her as a stand-in for Biden in the coming contest.
As The Hill noted earlier this month, Crystal Carson, director of communications in the former first lady's office, stated emphatically, “As...Michelle Obama has expressed several times over the years, she will not be running for president,” and the spokesperson added that her boss “supports President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris' re-election campaign.
If the Rasmussen numbers are correct, that position appears to be a wise one, assuming Mrs. Obama would prefer to avoid a potentially humiliating defeat on the national stage at the hands of someone for whom she clearly holds nothing but contempt.
The American Digest
Welcome to the University of Waterloo, where there are more Pride flags on campus than Canadian flags – even when it's not 'Pride season'!
During our visit to the University of Waterloo, we uncovered that the campus prominently displays various flags. David Menzies pointed out that there were two pride flags, one representing intersex individuals and the other symbolizing the two-spirit community.
We recently paid a visit to the University of Waterloo to report on the “black folx” only swim sessions at its swimming pool. Yes, a new version of apartheid is alive and well in the U of W’s recreation centre.
While there, we discovered that there’s another group that gets extra special treatment in the pool, that being (of course) the “2SLGBTQIA+” community. (Just who comprises the + category, by the way? Just asking).
Indeed, it became immediately obvious that this institute of higher learning, located in southwestern Ontario, is really big on pushing the spirit unicorn agenda. What greets your eyes immediately upon stepping foot on campus is a display of flags. Naturally, the Canadian flag and the provincial flag are on display. There’s also a flag we’ve never seen before.
A Google Images search failed to turn up a match. The colours are yellow, white, and black, and the flag is festooned with illustrations of little red lions. (Maybe this flag is meant to honour the late great wrestling personality, Bill Red Lyons? Mr. Lyons will be forever remembered by his legendary catchphrase: “Don’tcha dare miss it!”).
But we digress...
Still, we couldn’t help but notice that there were two, count ’em, TWO Pride flags.
One was the so-called “Pride progress plus” flag that includes the purple-flurple to represent intersex folk (spelled “folx” at the University of Waterloo. Why? Even if they don’t know…)
But the other Pride flag was one that we had never seen before. It was the classic Pride flag that features six multicoloured stripes. But imprinted upon the centre of the flag are two feathers. Some research reveals that this is the official flag of the two-spirit set. Here’s the official definition of “two-spirit”:
Traditionally, Native American two-spirit people were male, female, and sometimes intersexed individuals who combined activities of both men and women with traits unique to their status as two-spirit people. In most tribes, they were considered neither men nor women; they occupied a distinct, alternative gender status.
A word to the wise: make sure you stick to the official party line regarding two-spirit. To do otherwise might make for a career-ending move. Just ask Stephen LeDrew, the former president of the Liberal Party of Canada
Indeed, back in 2017, LeDrew was interviewed on Tucker Carlson Tonight on Fox News. Carlson was fascinated by the fact that, presumably in the name of uber-inclusiveness, the Elementary Teachers’ Federation of Ontario had expanded the LGBT initialism to – wait for it – LGGBDTTTIQQAAPP.
For the record, – LGGBDTTTIQQAAPP stands for: Lesbian, Gay, Genderqueer, Bisexual, Demisexual, Transgender, Transsexual, Two-Spirit, Intersex, Queer, Questioning, Asexual, Allies, Pansexual, and Polyamorous. (Not to be a nitpicker here, but do you notice that the letter “H” for “Heterosexual” is missing? You know, that silly little orientation that makes up 98% of the population of planet Earth? But we digress yet again…
Understandably, Carlson was gobsmacked by this ludicrous initialism that doesn’t appear to be used by anyone other than those employed by the taxpayer-funded ETFO.
So it was that Carlson innocently asked LeDrew, “What’s two-spirit?”
LeDrew answered: “Two-spirit sounds like there’s someone they don’t know whether they are fish or fowl, they don’t know whether they are frick or frack — so they’re clearly confused.”
Oh oh… “Frick or frack”? “Fish or fowl”? “Clearly confused”?
How DARE LeDrew speak of the two-spirit folk in such a manner. He’s suggesting these people might be mentally ill, after all. And such an opinion will NOT be tolerated.
And so it was in the days following the interview, LeDrew’s employer of some 20 years, Bell Media, fired the on-air host. In the department of uber-perverse irony, LeDrew’s prime directive on Carlson’s show was to argue that freedom of speech is alive and well in Canada. Poor LeDrew… wonder how he’s digging Liberalism these days?
As we continued to tour the campus, we decided we would look groundward in order to avoid the aerial bombardment onslaught of Pride flags. But the University of Waterloo has thought of all possibilities when it comes to Pride propaganda messaging. For alas and alack, the driveways at the university also featured painted Pride flags upon the asphalt. There was no getting away from Rainbowpalooza…
Bottom line: at the University of Waterloo, it’s no longer a matter of being tolerant and accepting of the rainbow mafia. Rather, you MUST applaud and affirm this community. And even though the number of people who comprise the LGGBDTTTIQQAAPP community is miniscule, they are nevertheless represented on campus by more flags than the Maple Leaf itself.
How did we get here?

Jim Jordan got Robert Hur to reveal one massively incriminating act that has everyone talking impeachment:
Special Counsel Robert Hur’s testimony before Congress featured one bombshell moment after another.
Democrats and the media couldn’t spin their way out of this one.
And Jim Jordan got Robert Hur to reveal one massively incriminating act that has everyone talking impeachment.
Hur admits the White House tried to obstruct the release of his report
Hur’s report into Joe Biden stealing classified documents set off a political earthquake when Hur revealed that he wouldn’t recommend charges against Biden because a jury would deem him mentally incompetent due to his old age and poor memory.
Polls showed 86 percent of Americans thought Biden was too old for the job.
Democrats flew into damage control mode attacking Hur as a partisan who took cheap shots at Biden for political purposes.
But one question from Jim Jordan revealed who the real political actors were in this case where the Biden White House tried to meddle in Hur’s report.
Law required Hur to submit a report to Attorney General Merrick Garland.
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan asked Hur if the White House pressured him to change his report’s conclusions.
“Did the White House try to weigh in with your investigation on elements of that report and frankly try to get that report changed?” Jordan asked.
Hur confirmed he faced political pressure from the White House to soften his conclusions to make Joe Biden look good.
“They did request certain edits and changes to the draft report,” Hur responded.
Wisconsin Republican Tom Tiffany then asked Hur about a February 5 letter from the White House counsel and Joe Biden’s personal lawyer cranking up the pressure on Hur to rewrite his report.
“So, is it correct that February 5th letter that was sent to you asking you to change references to the president’s poor memory — wasn’t there a request by the White House to do that?” Tiffany wondered.
“There was a request, yes,” Hur responded.
February 5 letter’s bombshell content.
In the February 5 letter, White House counsel Rich Sauber and personal attorney Bob Bauer demanded Hur change language, like where Hur wrote that a jury would see Biden as a “well meaning elderly old man” who suffered from a “poor memory” and that Biden couldn’t remember what years he was Vice President or when his son Beau passed away from brain cancer.
“We do not believe that the report’s treatment of President Biden’s memory is accurate or appropriate. The report uses highly prejudicial language to describe a commonplace occurrence among witnesses: a lack of recall of years-old events,” Sauber and Bauer wrote..
“We request that you revisit your descriptions of President Biden’s memory and revise them so that they are stated in a manner that is within the bounds of your expertise and remit,” the letter continued.
Had the Trump White House written a letter to Special Counsel Robert Mueller demanding alterations to his report on Russia collusion, the media would have turned the roofs of their newsrooms to graphite with their nuclear response.
If you don’t like the story, change the story.
This was a clear act of political obstruction into a Special Counsel report because the White House either didn’t like the conclusions or simply wanted to goad the GOP into helping them shift the focus off of the Biden administration’s policy catastrophes.
While this may have been another Democrat move to “change the narrative” to shift the focus away from the numerous serious allegations of corruption against Joe Biden, it may ultimately become the Biden White House’s undoing.
Many conservatives are wondering, if not this, what will it take the House of Representatives to bring articles of impeachment to the floor against Joe Biden?
But others suggest conservative voters ought to be demanding GOP-elected officials not only impeach Biden over corruption but also stay focused on the real harm Democrat policies are doing to the country too.

RUMOURS Circulating out there...:
You need to MAKE-UP Your own MIND!
SUMMARY
Ben Fulford:
· The mega Black Swan Event predicted for March 15th actually did take place as will become increasingly obvious over the coming days and months. The Khazarian Mafia’s so-called “Rules Based World Order,” has surrendered, according to Asian Secret Society and White Dragon sources.
· The hybrid war for control of the planet Earth that has been raging at least since September 11, 2001, is thus ending.
· This came as a White Dragon Society representative hand-delivered a declaration of war against the Japanese government. The declaration said the government was controlled by foreign gangsters who murdered over 400,000 Japanese citizens with vaccines. Demands include the expulsion of fake US Ambassador Rahm Emanuel and all foreign “Japan handlers.” It calls for the formation of an emergency government under the Japanese royal family, It also calls for the nationalization of the Bank of Japan, a jubilee, the reinstatement of the Economic Planning Agency and more.
· The imminent move in Japan comes after Chinese authorities arrested 726,000 people last year, a jump of 47.1% from the previous year… amid a crackdown on crimes linked to “hostile foreign forces.” https://www.rfa.org/english/news/china/china-arrests-hostile-foreign-forces-03112024204531.html
· EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Josep Borrell also confirmed the KM surrender when he wrote on his blog: “If the current global geopolitical tensions continue to evolve in the direction of ‘the West against the Rest,’ Europe’s future risks to be bleak. The era of Western dominance has indeed definitively ended.”
· In further sign the KM-controlled US regime is finished, Russian President Vladimir Putin says Washington has become a laughing stock of the rest of the world. “I think it’s obvious to everyone that the American political system cannot claim to be democratic in any sense of the word…and is becoming “increasingly uncivilized.” https://www.rt.com/news/594400-putin-us-elections-democracy/
· Yet another sign came on March 11th -the anniversary of the Fukushima terror attack- when the Federal Reserve Board stopped bailing out banks.
