“We have just been informed that Canada, a very difficult Country to TRADE with, including the fact that they have charged our Farmers as much as 400% Tariffs, for years, on Dairy Products, has just announced that they are putting a Digital Services Tax on our American Technology Companies, which is a direct and blatant attack on our Country. They are obviously copying the European Union, which has done the same thing, and is currently under discussion with us, also. Based on this egregious Tax, we are hereby terminating ALL discussions on Trade with Canada, effective immediately. We will let Canada know the Tariff that they will be paying to do business with the United States of America within the next seven day period. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary The claim that Canada has imposed “as much as 400% Tariffs for years on Dairy Products” from the U.S. is misleading. Canada uses a tariff-rate quota (TRQ) system, under which only dairy products exceeding a set import threshold face high over-quota tariffs—up to roughly 298.5%, not 400%. U.S. exports have not exceeded these quotas in recent years, so…
“Why would the so-called Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, of the war torn Country of Iran, say so blatantly and foolishly that he won the War with Israel, when he knows his statement is a lie, it is not so. As a man of great faith, he is not supposed to lie. His Country was decimated, his three evil Nuclear Sites were OBLITERATED, and I knew EXACTLY where he was sheltered, and would not let Israel, or the U.S. Armed Forces, by far the Greatest and Most Powerful in the World, terminate his life. I SAVED HIM FROM A VERY UGLY AND IGNOMINIOUS DEATH, and he does not have to say, THANK YOU, PRESIDENT TRUMP! In fact, in the final act of the War, I demanded that Israel bring back a very large group of planes, which were heading directly to Tehran, looking for a big day, perhaps the final knockout! Tremendous damage would have ensued, and many Iranians would have been killed. It was going to be the biggest attack of the War, by far. During the last few days, I was working on the possible removal of sanctions, and other things, which would have given a much better chance to Iran at a full, fast, and complete recovery – The sanctions are BITING! But no, instead I get hit with a statement of anger, hatred, and disgust, and immediately dropped all work on sanction relief, and more. Iran has to get back into the World Order flow, or things will only get worse for them. They are always so angry, hostile, and unhappy, and look at what it has gotten them – A burned out, blown up Country, with no future, a decimated Military, a horrible Economy, and DEATH all around them. They have no hope, and it will only get worse! I wish the leadership of Iran would realize that you often get more with HONEY than you do with VINEGAR. PEACE!!!” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary President Donald Trump’s Truth Social post critiqued Ayatollah Khamenei’s claim of victory in the Iran-Israel war, alleging Iran suffered devastating losses, including the obliteration of its nuclear sites, and suggesting Trump himself spared Khamenei’s life by restraining U.S. and Israeli forces. Fact-checking these assertions against credible reports and international assessments reveals Khamenei’s declaration of victory is not supported…
Trumps 12-Day War: A Made-for-TV Narrative Unraveled
Fact-Check Summary Analysis of available sources confirms that President Trump’s claim the U.S. strikes “obliterated” Iran’s nuclear capability is disputed. While administration officials, some allied sources, and visually compelling Pentagon briefings emphasized major damage to Fordow and Natanz enrichment sites, leaked U.S. intelligence reports, assessments by international experts, and the IAEA provided more skeptical appraisals. These latter sources indicate the…
“Jonathan Turley: Here the Supreme Court is agreeing with the Trump Administration that these judges are well past their authority.” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary Jonathan Turley’s statement accurately reflects the Supreme Court’s recent decision in Trump v. CASA, Inc. (2025). The high court ruled in a 6-3 split that federal judges have overstepped their constitutional authority by issuing nationwide injunctions against executive actions—a practice often used to halt federal policies across the country. Justice Amy Coney Barrett’s majority opinion explicitly held that…
“This morning, the Supreme Court has delivered a monumental victory for the Constitution…” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary The claim that the Supreme Court delivered a “monumental victory for the Constitution” refers to the June 27, 2025 decision in Trump v. CASA, Inc. In this case, the Court ruled 6-3 to restrict the practice of federal courts issuing nationwide injunctions against executive actions, particularly relating to Trump’s executive order on birthright citizenship. However, the Court did…
