“Claim Trump cleaned up the government Response You mean corrupted An unelected billionaire led his mass firing of 60000 federal workers cut research and services that millions of Americans depend on and he put in cronies in positions of power”

Fact-Check Summary The social media post’s central claims about unprecedented federal workforce reductions, Elon Musk’s direct leadership role in mass firings, deep cuts to research and public services, and the placement of loyalists in key government roles are largely substantiated by substantial documentation and reporting. While the figure of 60,000 federal workers laid off refers […]

“Claim Trump fixed the economy Response the cost of living is through the roof inflations at 27 the dollars declining 10 the tourism industry is losing millions unemployment is at an alltime high and he added 3 trillion to the deficit”

Quote /

Fact-Check Summary Both the claim that “Trump fixed the economy” and the counterpoints asserting overwhelming economic collapse contain significant exaggerations and factual errors. Official data show pre-pandemic economic strengths during Trump’s administration, including low unemployment and modest inflation, but also a major increase in federal debt. Current conditions do not mirror the dire metrics cited

Fact-Check Summary The claims presented about Donald Trump’s record regarding accusations and documented actions of racism are, for the most part, factually supported by legal cases, government fines, public statements, and acknowledged media coverage across several decades. While most referenced incidents are corroborated by reliable documentation or credible reporting, a few claims either exaggerate, lack

“A great and very successful day in Alaska! The meeting with President Vladimir Putin of Russia went very well, as did a late night phone call with President Zelenskyy of Ukraine, and various European Leaders, including the highly respected Secretary General of NATO. It was determined by all that the best way to end the horrific war between Russia and Ukraine is to go directly to a Peace Agreement, which would end the war, and not a mere Ceasefire Agreement, which often times do not hold up. President Zelenskyy will be coming to D.C., the Oval Office, on Monday afternoon. If all works out, we will then schedule a meeting with President Putin. Potentially, millions of peoples lives will be saved. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” @realDonaldTrump

Fact-Check Summary The Truth Social post about the Trump-Putin Alaska summit mixes accurate event reporting with exaggerated claims of success and consensus. While Trump and Putin did meet in Alaska on August 15, 2025, and Trump subsequently communicated with Ukrainian President Zelenskyy and NATO leaders, no breakthrough agreement was reached to end the Russia-Ukraine war.

“Jasmine Crockett is the future of the Democrat Party!” @realDonaldTrump

TruthSocial.com /

Fact-Check Summary The claim “Jasmine Crockett is the future of the Democrat Party” is partially rooted in fact but oversimplifies internal party debates and leadership dynamics. Some prominent Democrats, including DNC Vice Chair David Hogg, have described Crockett as the party’s future, and media coverage frequently frames her as a rising star. However, significant reservations

“Its just been found that the Democrats are buying protestors in order to fight my attack on crime. These are criminals who support crime. They are unelectable!” @realDonaldTrump

TruthSocial.com /

Fact-Check Summary The claim that “Democrats are buying protestors in order to fight my attack on crime” is not supported by credible evidence. Multiple investigations into similar allegations—including assertions made by Donald Trump and his allies about “paid protesters”—have repeatedly found them to be unfounded or based on misrepresentations, such as mischaracterizing legitimate campaign staff

“I had a wonderful talk with the highly respected President of Belarus, Aleksandr Lukashenko. The purpose of the call was to thank him for the release of 16 prisoners. We are also discussing the release of 1,300 additional prisoners. Our conversation was a very good one. We discussed many topics, including President Putins visit to Alaska. I look forward to meeting President Lukashenko in the future. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” @realDonaldTrump

TruthSocial.com /

Fact-Check Summary The social media post claiming Donald Trump personally spoke with Belarus President Lukashenko to thank him for the release of 16 prisoners and discussed the release of 1,300 others misrepresents documented facts. Belarus did release 14, not 16, political prisoners on June 21, 2025, following high-level diplomatic engagement led by Trump’s envoy, not

“10 YEARS AGO TODAY—AT THE IOWA STATE FAIR!” @realDonaldTrump

TruthSocial.com /

Fact-Check Summary The claim references “10 years ago today at the Iowa State Fair” on Truth Social, implying content on that platform originated in 2015. While the notable Iowa State Fair event involving Trump, Clinton, and Sanders did indeed occur on August 15, 2015, Truth Social did not even exist then—the platform launched in 2022.

“Since 1978, the Kennedy Center Honors have been among the most prestigious awards in the performing arts. This year, the board has selected a truly exceptional class of honorees…” @realDonaldTrump

TruthSocial.com /

Fact-Check Summary The post accurately states that the Kennedy Center Honors have been among the most prestigious performing arts awards since 1978. However, it omits the crucial fact that, following a complete overhaul of its leadership in 2025, President Trump now personally controls and directs the honoree selection process. The board’s traditional role has been
