  • President Donald Trump made numerous false claims in his Tuesday speech to a joint session of Congress. The falsehoods spanned a variety of topics, including the Department of Government Efficiency, inflation and immigration.

The article from MSN, titled "Fact-checking Trump's address to Congress," provides an analysis of former President Donald Trump's speech to Congress, focusing on the accuracy of his statements. Trump's address covered a range of topics including the economy, immigration, and foreign policy. Key points include his claims about economic achievements, where he exaggerated job creation numbers and the impact of his tax cuts. On immigration, Trump made assertions about the effectiveness of his border policies, which were met with scrutiny regarding the actual reduction in illegal border crossings and the humanitarian impact of his policies. Additionally, his comments on foreign policy, particularly concerning Iran and North Korea, were fact-checked, revealing discrepancies between his portrayal of events and the documented outcomes or agreements. The article highlights that while Trump's speech was filled with self-congratulatory remarks, many of his claims were either misleading, lacked context, or were outright false when compared to available data and expert analysis.
