Fact Check: Trump's Multiple Lies at the Cabinet Meeting

President Donald Trump made numerous false claims in remarks at the first Cabinet meeting of his new administration.

The falsehoods spanned a wide variety of topics, including aid to Ukraine, trade with the European Union, the history of the EU, inflation, mail-in voting, drug overdose deaths, and where the US stands in international education rankings.

Trump also left out critical context from two claims related to Elon Musk's efforts to reshape the federal government. Here is a fact check of some of Trump's statements.

Yeah, Pres Trump still looks like a serial liar.

Unable to to discern reality.

I am aghast.

But the MAGA cult seems to revel in the lies.

And the Republicans in Congress have shown their lack of a spine to do the "Checks and Balances" aspect of the Constitution.

So, now the Country looks to be relying upon the Judicial branch.
