“Comeys media mole told FBI he shaped Russia narrative, needed discount to deny leaking intel” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary The claim that James Comey’s “media mole” (Daniel Richman) admitted to shaping the Russia narrative and expressed the need for a “discount” to deny leaking intelligence is substantiated by declassified FBI documents and confirmed reporting. Richman was indeed a media intermediary for Comey, held high-level security clearance, and admitted to regular media communication on Comey’s behalf. His phrasing…
“Shut it down: Bombshell FBI timeline exposes political interference in Clinton corruption probe” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary The post claims a “bombshell FBI timeline” exposes political interference in the Clinton corruption probe. Official records, including declassified FBI and DOJ Inspector General reports, substantiate the existence of documentation showing constraints on certain Clinton-related investigations and internal debate on their scope. Congressional oversight and additional reporting confirm that DOJ and FBI leadership, including Andrew McCabe and Sally…
“DISTRICT IN DISTRESS” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary The phrase “District in Distress” exaggerates claims about Washington D.C.’s current condition. Although urban challenges remain, objective data indicates that violent crime has declined sharply, reaching historic lows. The narrative of D.C. as a city in crisis is not supported by available crime statistics, homelessness data, or governmental and expert analysis. Federal intervention measures are disproportionate to the…
“Washington, D.C., has one of the Highest Rates of Crime in the World, more than many of the most violent Third World Countries. The Citys Homicide Rate is higher than places notorious for their violence, such as Mexico City, Bogota, Islamabad, and Addis Ababa — Almost ten times higher than Fallujah, Iraq. If D.C. were a State, it would have the highest Homicide Rate of any State in America. The Violent Crime Rate in D.C. has worsened, and the Murder Rate has essentially DOUBLED in just over a decade — But these are only the official statistics released by corrupt City Officials. The REAL numbers are many times worse. In fact, a Precinct Commander was just suspended for allegedly manipulating the Violent Crime Statistics, and the D.C. Police Union, likewise, says the real numbers are much higher. Because the Democrat Government of D.C. has largely stopped investigating, arresting, and prosecuting most Crime, the published statistics dont even capture a fraction of the actual Violence. No one is arrested for shoplifting. Citizens living in fear have largely given up on calling the Police, instead choosing not to walk the streets after dark, essentially becoming captive prisoners in their own City. Stores lock up their merchandise behind glass walls. Gang Youth Violence is so common it goes largely unreported. Vehicle Theft in D.C. is more than three times the National Average. Schools are completely dysfunctional. Citizens are afraid to speak up or, call the Police, lest they be targeted. The REAL Crime Rates are probably five to ten times what has been reported. D.C. has been under siege from thugs and killers, but now, D.C. is back under Federal Control where it belongs. The White House is in charge. The Military and our Great Police will liberate this City, scrape away the filth, and make it safe, clean, habitable and beautiful once more!” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary The TruthSocial post contains a mix of factual claims, significant exaggerations, misleading statements, and unsupported allegations about crime in Washington, D.C. While elements such as the current high homicide rate, its increase over the last decade, and vehicle thefts being well above the national average are supported by official statistics, the post grossly overstates D.C.’s international crime ranking…
California Declares Meme War on Trumps Redistricting Tactics
Fact-Check Summary The analyzed posts from Governor Newsom’s press office targeting President Trump over redistricting are authentic, widely reported, and accurately reflect the escalating rhetoric and threats exchanged over partisan gerrymandering. The posts mix factual assertions (such as the intention to initiate California’s own redistricting in response to Texas) with unsubstantiated hyperbole, exaggerated personal descriptions, and satirical jibes. The claim…
