Fact-Check Summary The post attributed to President Trump on Truth Social asserts that he will mandate universal voter ID, severely restrict mail-in voting, and require paper ballots exclusively via executive order.

Fact-Check Summary Claims that the entire Russia investigation or the 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment were a “hoax” or fabricated are not supported by the preponderance of evidence from multiple independent investigations, including those conducted by Special Counsel Mueller, Congress, and oversight entities.

Fact-Check Summary Donald Trump’s Truth Social post about limestone damage in the White House Rose Garden contains several claims. The core assertion—that the Rose Garden was renovated with high-quality limestone, and a contractor accidentally damaged it—aligns with documented factual accounts from multiple sources. Trump’s statements about witnessing the damage, reacting strongly, and vowing to hold

Fact-Check Summary The post claims that the appellate court wrongly restrained presidential tariff powers, asserting broad executive authority under statute and Article II. However, constitutional and legal analysis shows that tariff power is primarily a Congressional prerogative.
