“A truly AMAZING job by our great U.S. Attorney in D.C.” @realDonaldTrump

Official Press Relese: October 11, 2025

Fact-Check Summary The Truth Social post praises Jeanine Pirro for doing an “AMAZING job” as U.S. Attorney in D.C. and credits her with improving crime trends. While it is true that Pirro publicly touted declining crime statistics after taking office as U.S. Attorney, this improvement was already in progress before her federal intervention, according to official city crime data. Most…

“It has just been learned that China has taken an extraordinarily aggressive position on Trade in sending an extremely hostile letter to the World, stating that they were going to, effective November 1st, 2025, impose large scale Export Controls on virtually every product they make, and some not even made by them. This affects ALL Countries, without exception, and was obviously a plan devised by them years ago. It is absolutely unheard of in International Trade, and a moral disgrace in dealing with other Nations.Based on the fact that China has taken this unprecedented position, and speaking only for the U.S.A., and not other Nations who were similarly threatened, starting November 1st, 2025 (or sooner, depending on any further actions or changes taken by China), the United States of America will impose a Tariff of 100% on China, over and above any Tariff that they are currently paying. Also on November 1st, we will impose Export Controls on any and all critical software.It is impossible to believe that China would have taken such an action, but they have, and the rest is History. Thank you for your attention to this matter!DONALD J. TRUMPPRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA ” @realDonaldTrump

Official Press Relese: October 10, 2025

Fact-Check Summary The post claims China sent a hostile letter announcing new export controls on virtually every product, affecting all countries, with the U.S. set to impose a 100% tariff and broad software export controls on November 1, 2025. Verified information shows China did announce new export controls affecting rare earth elements and related technologies, but not on virtually every…

“Some very strange things are happening in China! They are becoming very hostile, and sending letters to Countries throughout the World, that they want to impose Export Controls on each and every element of production having to do with Rare Earths, and virtually anything else they can think of, even if its not manufactured in China. Nobody has ever seen anything like this but, essentially, it would clog the Markets, and make life difficult for virtually every Country in the World, especially for China. We have been contacted by other Countries who are extremely angry at this great Trade hostility, which came out of nowhere. Our relationship with China over the past six months has been a very good one, thereby making this move on Trade an even more surprising one. I have always felt that theyve been lying in wait, and now, as usual, I have been proven right! There is no way that China should be allowed to hold the World captive, but that seems to have been their plan for quite some time, starting with the Magnets and, other Elements that they have quietly amassed into somewhat of a Monopoly position, a rather sinister and hostile move, to say the least. But the U.S. has Monopoly positions also, much stronger and more far reaching than Chinas. I have just not chosen to use them, there was never a reason for me to do so — UNTIL NOW! The letter they sent is many pages long, and details, with great specificity, each and every Element that they want to withhold from other Nations. Things that were routine are no longer routine at all. I have not spoken to President Xi because there was no reason to do so. This was a real surprise, not only to me, but to all the Leaders of the Free World. I was to meet President Xi in two weeks, at APEC, in South Korea, but now there seems to be no reason to do so. The Chinese letters were especially inappropriate in that this was the Day that, after three thousand years of bedlam and fighting, there is PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST. I wonder if that timing was coincidental? Dependent on what China says about the hostile order that they have just put out, I will be forced, as President of the United States of America, to financially counter their move. For every Element that they have been able to monopolize, we have two. I never thought it would come to this but perhaps, as with all things, the time has come. Ultimately, though potentially painful, it will be a very good thing, in the end, for the U.S.A. One of the Policies that we are calculating at this moment is a massive increase of Tariffs on Chinese products coming into the United States of America. There are many other countermeasures that are, likewise, under serious consideration. Thank you for your attention to this matter! DONALD J. TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” @realDonaldTrump

Official Press Relese: October 10, 2025

Fact-Check Summary Trump’s post correctly notes that China announced new, broad export controls on rare earth elements and related items in October 2025, which is factually accurate and unprecedented. It is also factual that Trump threatened reciprocal tariffs and countermeasures, and that there were additional port fees imposed by both nations. However, the claim of achieving comprehensive “peace in the…
