Fact-Check Summary The claim that carjacking in DC is down 87% is supported by available data for certain months, matching the cited figure. Several other major crime categories (e.g., robbery, violent crime, burglary) are also down significantly. However, not all types of crime are reduced “massively,” and improvements began prior to federal intervention. The assertion […]

“Governor Pritzker had 6 murders in Chicago this weekend. 20 people were shot. But he doesnt want to ask me for help. Can this be possible? The people are desperate for me to STOP THE CRIME, something the Democrats arent capable of doing. STAY TUNED!!! President DJT” @realDonaldTrump

Fact-Check Summary The social media post significantly misrepresents key facts about a recent weekend of violence in Chicago. The claim of “6 murders” is false; official reports confirm only 3 fatalities. The statement of “20 people were shot” understates the real figure, with 30 people shot. While it is true Governor Pritzker declined federal intervention

“The Republican Party is doing really well. Millions of people have joined us in our quest to MAKE AMERICA, GREAT AGAIN. We won every aspect of the Presidential Election and, based on the great success we are having, are poised to WIN BIG IN THE MIDTERMS. We have raised far more money than the Democrats, and are having a great time fixing all of the Country Destroying mistakes made by the Biden Administration, and watching the USA heal and prosper. The results are incredible, a record pace!!! In that light, I am thinking of recommending a National Convention to the Republican Party, just prior to the Midterms. It has never been done before. STAY TUNED!!! DONALD J. TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” @realDonaldTrump

Fact-Check Summary The post contains a mix of accurate statements, exaggerations, and unverifiable or misleading claims. While it is true that Donald Trump is the sitting president following his 2024 election victory, claims that the Republican Party is doing extremely well, that the party is poised for big midterm wins, and that the USA is

“But is that the end of his political career. He was very disrespectful to the Office of the President!” @realDonaldTrump

Fact-Check Summary The post accurately notes Wes Moore apologized for misrepresenting receipt of the Bronze Star, a mistake he owned publicly in 2024 and later rectified when the medal was officially awarded in December 2024.

“Mondays Court Order in Utah is absolutely Unconstitutional. How did such a wonderful Republican State like Utah, which I won in every Election, end up with so many Radical Left Judges? All Citizens of Utah should be outraged at their activist Judiciary, which wants to take away our Congressional advantage, and will do everything possible to do so. This incredible State sent four great Republicans to Congress, and we want to keep it that way. The Utah GOP has to STAY UNITED, and make sure their four terrific Republican Congressmen stay right where they are!” @realDonaldTrump

Fact-Check Summary The claim that the Utah court order is “absolutely Unconstitutional” fundamentally mischaracterizes Judge Dianna Gibson’s August 25, 2025 decision, which found Utah’s current congressional map violated the state constitution, not the other way around. Independent legal review and Utah Supreme Court precedent confirm the order’s procedural and constitutional legitimacy. The post accurately notes
