“Im dealing with, THE POISONING OF AMERICA!” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary The recurring claim of “THE POISONING OF AMERICA” spans a range of issues: anti-immigration rhetoric, the fentanyl crisis, conspiracy theories about food, chemicals, fluoridation, and chemtrails. Factual analysis reveals that the phrase is mostly deployed as an inflammatory motif. While real crises such as fentanyl overdoses exist, immigration and crime claims are contradicted by consistent data, and many…
“Turnberry in Scotland. Number One Rated in the World!!!” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary The claim that Trump Turnberry in Scotland is “Number One Rated in the World” is inaccurate. Major golf course ranking authorities, including Golf Digest and GOLF Magazine, place the Ailsa Course at Trump Turnberry within the world’s top 10–20, but not at the number one spot. No recognized ranking lists Trump Turnberry as the top golf course globally.…
“Great job by wonderful TRICIA MCLAUGHLIN, DHS Assistant Secretary, on the Sean Hannity Show. Many Illegals from around our Nation charged with serious crimes this week. Tricia really knows her STUFF!” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary The post accurately credits Tricia McLaughlin as an Assistant Secretary at DHS and her appearance on the Sean Hannity Show. However, its claim that “many illegals from around our Nation [were] charged with serious crimes this week” is misleading. Official government data show that while the majority of recent ICE detainees may have criminal charges or convictions, only…
“The SLEAZEBAG Governor of Colorado, Jared Polis, refuses to allow an elderly woman, Tina Peters, who was unfairly convicted of what the Democrats do, cheating on Elections, out of jail! She was convicted for trying to stop Democrats from stealing Colorado Votes in the Election. She was preserving Election Records, which she was obligated to do under Federal Law. She has now served more than one year in jail, and has eight years to go. On top of everything else, she is a cancer survivor. This lightweight Governor, who has allowed his State to go to hell (Tren de Aragua, anyone?), should be ashamed of himself. FREE TINA!” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary This post contains significant mischaracterizations about Tina Peters’ conviction and her treatment by Governor Jared Polis. Peters was convicted by a Colorado jury on multiple felony and misdemeanor charges for unauthorized and deceptive actions involving voting equipment, not for any legitimate attempt to “preserve records.” Claims of her acting to prevent election fraud are contradicted by court records…
“For years, the Biden Administration weaponized the Justice System against their Political Opponents, and anyone who disagreed with them. One of the clearest examples of this was when Crooked Joe used the FBI and DOJ to take out a member of his own Party after Highly Respected Congressman Henry Cuellar bravely spoke out against Open Borders, and the Biden Border Catastrophe. Sleepy Joe went after the Congressman, and even the Congressmans wonderful wife, Imelda, simply for speaking the TRUTH. It is unAmerican and, as I previously stated, the Radical Left Democrats are a complete and total threat to Democracy! They will attack, rob, lie, cheat, destroy, and decimate anyone who dares to oppose their Far Left Agenda, an Agenda that, if left unchecked, will obliterate our magnificent Country. Because of these facts, and others, I am hereby announcing my full and unconditional PARDON of beloved Texas Congressman Henry Cuellar, and Imelda. Henry, I dont know you, but you can sleep well tonight — Your nightmare is finally over!” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary Donald Trump’s Truth Social post claims that the Biden administration weaponized the justice system against Congressman Henry Cuellar for speaking out on border policy, and that Trump pardoned Cuellar as a result. In reality, Cuellar was indicted on concrete bribery and money laundering charges relating to alleged schemes involving foreign entities, with detailed documentary evidence, and some associates…
