“I used, at the White House, the most beautiful marble and stone available anywhere. Surfaces are very important to me as a Builder. As everyone knows, I built many GREAT Buildings, and other things, over the years. At the White House, I am very proud of the beautiful stonework we did in the Rose Garden, in this case, using limestone plus. The Rose Garden is completed, and far more beautiful than anyone ever had in mind when it was conceived of, decades ago. Three days ago, while admiring the stonework, I happened to notice a huge gash in the limestone that extended more than 25 yards long. It was deep and nasty! I started yelling, Who did this, and I want to find out now! — And I didnt say this in a nice manner. I wondered, Was it vandalism or, was it stupidity? Lo and behold, because of the fact that weve installed the finest security equipment anywhere, they brought back the stupid people, with their boss watching (in sunglasses!). It was a subcontractor that was installing heavy landscaping on a steel cart that was broken and tilting badly, with it rubbing hard against the soft, beautiful stone. I love and respect great workers and contractors, but something like this should never happen. Now, Ill replace the stone, charge the contractor, and never let that contractor work at the White House again — But, how great is the video equipment? We caught them, cold. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” @realDonaldTrump

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 […]

“RT @marklevinshowTHE APPELLATE COURT MAJORITY TARIFF DECISION WAS WRONGThe appellate court majority that ruled against most of the presidents tariffs has it wrong.  Whether you like tariffs or not, the act at issue does, in fact, grant the president broad powers to declare an emergency.  Even more, the Constitution, under Article II, grants the president broad powers to make foreign policy.  The presidents lawyers are obviously aware of this, which is why the executive orders at issue rely, in part, on serious foreign policy considerations, including, as an example, Mexico, Canada, and China, which the president has determined are not doing enough to prevent the flow of deadly drugs into our country.  The combination of broad authority and Article II powers trump the issues raised by the courts majority.  Moreover, judges should not be the final decision-makers about such matters as theyre exercising authority that was never delegated to them, and they should not substitute their own policy preferences for the presidents.  The check here is Congress — that is, if it wishes to amend the law or pass a new law curbing the presidents power here.  That said, Congress does not have boundless power, and it could run into separation of powers issues, given Article II and the presidents foreign policy authority.  The Supreme Court will, once again, rule on this.  In the past, Justices Thomas, Gorsuch, and Kavanaugh have noted the broad authority of the president in circumstances similar to this.  I expect Justice Alito would concur.  ” @realDonaldTrump

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. Recent federal court decisions (7-4 appellate court majority) emphasized that the Constitution and statutes do not permit unilateral

“THE APPELLATE COURT MAJORITY TARIFF DECISION WAS WRONG” @realDonaldTrump

TruthSocial.com /

Fact-Check Summary The post accurately states that the federal appellate court ruled against most of the president’s tariffs. It is correct that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) gives the president substantial emergency powers, and Article II does grant broad foreign policy authority. However, the post misrepresents the limits of these powers: the court

“ALL TARIFFS ARE STILL IN EFFECT! Today a Highly Partisan Appeals Court incorrectly said that our Tariffs should be removed, but they know the United States of America will win in the end. If these Tariffs ever went away, it would be a total disaster for the Country. It would make us financially weak, and we have to be strong. The U.S.A. will no longer tolerate enormous Trade Deficits and unfair Tariffs and Non Tariff Trade Barriers imposed by other Countries, friend or foe, that undermine our Manufacturers, Farmers, and everyone else. If allowed to stand, this Decision would literally destroy the United States of America. At the start of this Labor Day weekend, we should all remember that TARIFFS are the best tool to help our Workers, and support Companies that produce great MADE IN AMERICA products. For many years, Tariffs were allowed to be used against us by our uncaring and unwise Politicians. Now, with the help of the United States Supreme Court, we will use them to the benefit of our Nation, and Make America Rich, Strong, and Powerful Again! Thank you for your attention to this matter.” @realDonaldTrump

Fact-Check Summary President Trump’s statement that “ALL TARIFFS ARE STILL IN EFFECT” is correct in the current legal context: a federal appellate court ruled much of his tariff program exceeded statutory authority but stayed its decision, so tariffs remain while appeals are pending. His characterization of the appeals court as “Highly Partisan” is opinion, not

“GREAT Governor Mike Kehoe, of the Wonderful State of Missouri, which I love and won SIX times, including with1.8 Million Votes in 2024 (by far the most Votes in History!), just called a very Special Session to begin passage of a new, much fairer, and much improved, Congressional Map, that will give the incredible people of Missouri the tremendous opportunity to elect an additional MAGA Republican in the2026 Midterm Elections — A HUGE VICTORY for our America First Agenda, not just in the Show-Me State, but across our Nation. Remember, I won the 2024 Presidential Election in a landslide, won ALL SEVEN SWING STATES, THE POPULAR VOTE, AND ALL FIFTY STATES SHIFTED REPUBLICAN, a record, and now I have the best polling numbers Ive ever had. Our Party has never been more UNITED, and we are getting so much done for the American People because of it, and, therefore, I call on all of my Republican friends in the Missouri Legislature to work as fast as they can to get this new Congressional Map, AS IS, to Governor Mike Kehoes desk, ASAP. THANK YOU MISSOURI – MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” @realDonaldTrump

Fact-Check Summary The post accurately reports that Missouri Governor Mike Kehoe called a special legislative session for congressional redistricting. However, it contains falsehoods about Trump receiving “18 Million Votes in 2024” in Missouri (he received about 1.75 million) and overstates the claim of winning “by far the most Votes in History” for the state.

“Carjacking in DC is down 87%. ALL other categories of crime are likewise down massively since I got involved. DC will soon be a CRIME FREE ZONE, in only 14 days, far faster than scheduled. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” @realDonaldTrump

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

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
