Inmates behind Brazil deadly prison riot transferred: officialForty-six inmates involved in one of Brazil's deadliest prison riots were being transferred to other jails Tuesday, an official said. At least 57 people were killed on Monday when fighting broke out between rival drug gang factions in the Altamira Regional Recovery Centre in the northern state of Para. Sixteen were decapitated in the hours-long battle, but most died in a fire that engulfed part of the overcrowded facility that used converted shipping containers to house some of the inmates.

#LostTrumpHistory trends as the internet mocks Trump's 9/11 comments

#LostTrumpHistory trends as the internet mocks Trump's 9/11 commentsIf you thought President Trump could speak about the brave work of 9/11 first responders without giving himself a little shout out, you'd be wrong.On Monday, Trump signed the act that will extend the 9/11 Victim Compensation Fund before more than 200 people who were impacted by the attacks on 9/11. The bill, which was publicly supported by Jon Stewart as it traveled through the House and Senate, will ensure first responders are given financial support through 2090.As Trump was addressing the crowd, however, he said something that came across as a bit controversial. (Shocker.)"Many of those affected were firefighters, police officers, and other first responders," Trump said. "And I was down there also. But I'm not considering myself a first responder. But I was down there, I spent a lot of time down there with you."> Trump: "I was down there [at Ground Zero] also. But I am not considering myself a first responder." https://t.co/Ax43BKl3yl pic.twitter.com/D7RAaZHb07> > -- CBS News (@CBSNews) July 29, 2019SEE ALSO: Jon Stewart's face as Mitch McConnell walks by him is pricelessTrump's connection to 9/11 recovery efforts has received a great deal of speculation in the past.In an interview with German reporter Stephan Bachenheimer, Trump claimed that hundreds of his men pitched in to help recover Ground Zero in the days after the terrorist attacks, but according to Snopes, his involvement has yet to be proven. The New York Times also concluded that Trump's involvement in post-9/11 aid was "exaggerated," and noted that retired New York Fire Department deputy chief, Richard Alles, said he didn't see Trump at Ground Zero in wake of the tragedy.Since the details of Trump's involvement in 9/11 recovery are so uncertain, Twitter users decided to mock the president's not-so-humble brag by creating the hashtag LostTrumpHistory. They used it to joke about other historical events that Trump certainly did not attend, and also to show off their Photoshop skills.> "In June of 1775, I manned the air, I rammed the ramparts, I took over the airports, I did everything I had to do."LostTrumpHistory pic.twitter.com/MLag0ucF64> > -- Deesnay (@Deesnay) July 30, 2019> Do you remember the time Donald Trump refused to give up his place on a bus to a white man when protesting against racial discrimination?
