“Whatever happened to Senator Rand Paul? He was never great, but he went really BAD! I got him elected, TWICE (in the Great Commonwealth of Kentucky!), but he just never votes positively for the Republican Party. Hes a nasty liddle guy, much like Congressman Thomas Massie, aka Rand Paul Jr., also of Kentucky (which I won three times, in massive landslides!), a sick Wacko, who refuses to vote for our great Republican Party, MAGA, or America First. Its really weird!!!” @realDonaldTrump

Fact-Check Summary The Truth Social post by Donald Trump about Senator Rand Paul contains both verifiable facts and misleading statements. Trump’s claim that he “got him elected TWICE” is inaccurate with respect to Paul’s initial 2010 Senate victory, which preceded Trump’s involvement in politics. However, Trump’s support for Paul’s later reelections is documented. Trump’s assertion […]

“I just had a very good telephone call with President Xi, of China. We discussed many topics including Ukraine/Russia, Fentanyl, Soybeans and other Farm Products, etc. We have done a good, and very important, deal for our Great Farmers — and it will only get better. Our relationship with China is extremely strong! This call was a follow up to our highly successful meeting in South Korea, three weeks ago. Since then, there has been significant progress on both sides in keeping our agreements current and accurate. Now we can set our sights on the big picture. To that end, President Xi invited me to visit Beijing in April, which I accepted, and I reciprocated where he will be my guest for a State Visit in the U.S. later in the year. We agreed that it is important that we communicate often, which I look forward to doing. Thank you for your attention to this matter! DONALD J.

Fact-Check Summary President Trump’s Truth Social post about his November 24, 2025 phone call with President Xi Jinping is largely accurate. The phone call, topics discussed (Ukraine, Russia, fentanyl, soybeans), progress on agricultural agreements, and planned reciprocal visits are all confirmed by multiple credible sources. Some claims are framed with optimistic language and incomplete context,

“Republican (of course!) Congressman Tim Burchett was GREAT today on Fox & Friends – a Classic. His take on Marjorie Traitor Brown was 100% perfecto!!! Way to go, Tim!!! President DJT” @realDonaldTrump

TruthSocial.com /

Fact-Check Summary The post inaccurately attributes harsh criticism of Marjorie Taylor Greene to Congressman Tim Burchett. While Burchett did appear on Fox News and discussed congressional ethics, he defended Greene’s independence and refused to call her a traitor, unlike President Trump. The claim that Burchett’s “take” was harsh or derogatory is not supported by the

Fact-Check Summary Shedeur Sanders did win his first NFL start for the Cleveland Browns with a 24-10 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders. Statistically, Sanders’ performance was solid—209 yards, one touchdown, and one interception—though not exceptional by professional quarterback standards. The team’s win was significantly aided by a dominant defensive effort. The post’s claim that

“Despite the massive amount of money being made by the United States of America, Hundreds of Billions of Dollars, as a direct result of Tariffs being charged to other countries, the full benefit of the Tariffs has not yet been calculated in that many of the buyers of goods and products, in order to avoid paying the Tariffs in the short term, STOCK UP by purchasing far more inventory than they can use. That heavy inventory purchase is now, however, wearing thin, and soon Tariffs will be paid on everything they apply to, without avoidance, and the amounts payable to the USA will SKYROCKET, over and above the already historic levels of dollars received.

Fact-Check Summary President Trump’s post accurately states that the United States has collected hundreds of billions in tariff revenue, with $195 billion collected in FY 2025. However, his projections that future tariff revenues will “skyrocket” and result in “unprecedented wealth” and “national security” gains are contradicted by robust economic analyses. These analyses show that while

TruthSocial.com /

Fact-Check Summary The assertion that “big progress is being made in Peace Talks between Russia and Ukraine” is partially supported by the ongoing diplomatic activity, including recent talks in Geneva and refinement of a proposed peace framework. However, significant disagreements remain unresolved among the involved parties, especially concerning territorial control, security guarantees, and Russia’s maximalist

Fact-Check Summary The post correctly describes a key moment in the November 23, 2025 Giants vs. Lions game: The Giants led by three late, reached the Lions’ six-yard line, and opted to go for a touchdown on fourth down instead of kicking a short field goal. The attempt failed, setting up the Lions’ game-tying field

Fact-Check Summary The post accurately reports that the United States has collected historic amounts of tariff revenue—approximately $195 billion in Fiscal Year 2025—describing the “hundreds of billions” figure as correct. Evidence supports claims that businesses front-loaded imports to avoid tariffs and that those inventories are currently being depleted. However, economic and shipping data show a

Fact-Check Summary Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent did publicly advocate for Senate Republicans to end the filibuster if Senate Democrats were to trigger another government shutdown on January 30. This stance is verifiable through his Washington Post op-ed and NBC News statements from November 2025. However, available evidence does not confirm that this statement was posted

Fact-Check Summary The Truth Social post contains a mix of factually accurate statements and significant exaggerations, particularly regarding Republican Party unity.
