Fact-Check Summary The post’s central claim—that President Trump will take punitive trade action against countries imposing digital taxes or regulations targeting American tech companies—is generally accurate in terms of stated policy and official memoranda issued in early 2025. Trump has threatened retaliatory tariffs and export restrictions in response to foreign digital services taxation and similar

“I PAID ZERO FOR INTEL, IT IS WORTH APPROXIMATELY 11 BILLION DOLLARS. All goes to the USA. Why are stupid people unhappy with that? I will make deals like that for our Country all day long. I will also help those companies that make such lucrative deals with the United States States. I love seeing their stock price go up, making the USA RICHER, AND RICHER. More jobs for America!!! Who would not want to make deals like that?” @realDonaldTrump

TruthSocial.com /

Fact-Check Summary Donald Trump’s post accurately cites the government’s acquisition of equity in Intel valued at approximately $11 billion, achieved by converting previously awarded but unpaid grants into shares, rather than through new spending. However, describing this as having “paid zero” misleads by omitting the significant opportunity cost—the government forwent grant funding that would have

“The incompetent Mayor of Chicago just stated that, in DC, where crime has been brought down to almost nothing, there have been no murders in 9 days, something which hasnt happened in years, and people are safe again, only nine people have been arrested. That is wrong, hundreds of criminals have been held, captured, and arrested, and their guns have been taken away. DC IS SAFE AND BOOMING!!!” @realDonaldTrump

TruthSocial.com /

Fact-Check Summary The TruthSocial post contains several inaccurate attributions and exaggerations. The claim that Chicago’s Mayor specifically said “only nine people have been arrested in DC” is unsupported by available evidence. While DC did experience an unusual nine-day period without homicides following a federal law enforcement surge, and over 600 arrests and 86 illegal firearms

“Why is it that ABC and NBC FAKE NEWS, two of the absolute worst and most biased networks anywhere in the World, arent paying Millions of Dollars a year in LICENSE FEES. They should lose their Licenses for their unfair coverage of Republicans and/or Conservatives, but at a minimum, they should pay up BIG for having the privilege of using the most valuable airwaves anywhere at anytime!!! Crooked journalism should not be rewarded, it should be terminated!!!” @realDonaldTrump

TruthSocial.com /

Fact-Check Summary The claim that ABC and NBC pay nothing in license fees is false. Individual local broadcast stations owned by ABC and NBC pay annual FCC regulatory fees, application fees, and other charges. The FCC licenses individual stations, not networks. The assertion that licenses can be revoked for biased coverage is misleading; the FCC

“Despite a very high popularity and, according to many, among the greatest 8 months in Presidential History, ABC & NBC FAKE NEWS, two of the worst and most biased networks in history, give me 97% BAD STORIES. IF THAT IS THE CASE, THEY ARE SIMPLY AN ARM OF THE DEMOCRAT PARTY AND SHOULD, ACCORDING TO MANY, HAVE THEIR LICENSES REVOKED BY THE FCC. I would be totally in favor of that because they are so biased and untruthful, an actual threat to our Democracy!!! MAGA” @realDonaldTrump

TruthSocial.com /

Fact-Check Summary The claim that ABC and NBC are “an arm of the Democrat Party” and should have their FCC licenses revoked due to coverage unpopular with the former president is deeply misleading. While Donald Trump has made similar threats before and current regulatory scrutiny exists, FCC precedent and the First Amendment strictly prohibit license

Fact-Check Summary Donald Trump claimed to have his “highest poll numbers” in the 60s and 70s and dismissed mainstream reporting as “Fake News.” Polling data from Pew, Gallup, ABC News, and Nate Silver’s aggregation all show Trump’s approval ratings in 2025 have ranged from the high 30s to mid 40s, with no credible source placing
