All Trump and his cult have are his lies.

A Fact-Checked List of Trump Accomplishments
It�s been circulating on social media for months. Here�s what I found when
I looked into these claims.

This list of President Trump�s accomplishments has been circulating on
social media for months and has most likely been viewed by millions of
people. I examined each claim to the best of my ability, reaching out to
people and institutions who had special insight to see if they considered
the claims accurate.
Some takeaways: Few items are outright false, which is something to
celebrate in the age of QAnon conspiracy theories. Some are misleading and
some are absolutely true. About a quarter relate to Mr. Trump�s signing of
bills that Congress passed, many of which he had little to do with. A large
portion of items on the list credit Mr. Trump for a booming economy, which
is no longer booming because of the coronavirus pandemic.
You can read my piece about what I learned from the experience of fact-
checking this list here. But I decided to post the full list as written,
including the original emojis, to give readers a chance to examine it for
themselves and see what Mr. Trump�s supporters are touting as his biggest
achievements.
1. Trump recently signed 3 bills to benefit Native people. One gives
compensation to the Spokane tribe for loss of their lands in the mid-1900s,
one funds Native language programs, and the third gives federal recognition
to the Little Shell Tribe of Chippewa Indians in Montana.

True, but tribal leaders credit bipartisan efforts in Congress for
those bills. In 2019, Mr. Trump signed the Spokane Reservation Equitable
Compensation Act for the loss of land that was flooded by the Grand Coulee
Dam. Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke visited the reservation and pledged to
support the bill. But Carol Evans, chairwoman of the Spokane Tribal
Business Council, said most of the credit for the law goes to two members
of Congress from Washington, Senator Maria Cantwell, a Democrat, and
Representative Cathy McMorris Rodgers, a Republican. Mr. Trump also signed
the Esther Martinez Native American Languages Programs Reauthorization Act,
which revises an existing grant program. That bill was introduced by
Senator Tom Udall, Democrat of New Mexico. Lastly, Mr. Trump signed the
National Defense Authorization Act of 2019, which included a provision that
gave long-overdue federal recognition to the Little Shell Tribe. Tribal
Chairman Gerald Gray credits the bipartisan efforts of Senators Jon Tester,
a Democrat, and Steve Daines, a Republican, both of Montana, for tucking
the tribal recognition provision into the military spending bill.

2. Trump finalized the creation of Space Force as our 6th Military branch.

True. But senior military leaders publicly opposed its creation,
including Mr. Trump�s secretary of defense, James Mattis, because they
argued it would create further complicated bureaucracy and counteract the
Air Force�s work to defend the country�s space assets.

3. Trump signed a law to make cruelty to animals a federal felony so that
animal abusers face tougher consequences. ????

True. A bipartisan group in Congress also deserves credit for the
Preventing Animal Cruelty and Torture Act.

4.) Violent crime has fallen every year he�s been in office after rising
during the 2 years before he was elected.

The violent crime rate has dropped steadily since 1999, from 523 per
100,000 inhabitants in 1999 to 432 in 2009 to 369 in 2018. The rate rose
slightly in 2015 and 2016, but the general trend has been a long downward
slide that predated his election.

5. Trump signed a bill making CBD and Hemp legal. ????

True. Congress also deserves credit for the inclusion of this measure
in the 2018 Farm Bill, which Mr. Trump signed.

6. Trump�s EPA gave $100 million to fix the water infrastructure problem in
Flint, Michigan.

Both President Barack Obama and Mr. Trump deserve credit for this
allocation, which was set in motion before Mr. Obama left office.

7. Under Trump�s leadership, in 2018 the U.S. surpassed Russia and Saudi
Arabia to become the world�s largest producer of crude oil.

True. Domestic oil production has been expanding since 2010, predating
the Trump administration.

8. Trump signed a law ending the gag orders on Pharmacists that prevented
them from sharing money-saving information.

True. Mr. Trump tweeted in support of this law and deserves credit for
using the bully pulpit of the presidency to demand transparency in drug
prices. But Congress deserves most of the credit for the unanimous 2018
passage of this transparency law, which prohibits gag orders that prevent
pharmacists from sharing prescription drug prices with customers.

9. Trump signed the �Allow States and Victims to Fight Online Sex
Trafficking Act� (FOSTA), which includes the �Stop Enabling Sex Traffickers
Act� (SESTA) which both give law enforcement and victims new tools to fight
sex trafficking. ????

True. The bill was crafted and pushed through Congress by
Representative Ann Wagner, a conservative Republican from Missouri, who
thanked Ivanka Trump for advocating its passage.

10. Trump signed a bill to require airports to provide spaces for
breastfeeding Moms.

True. Congress also deserves credit for the Friendly Airports for
Mothers Act of 2017, which was championed by Senator Tammy Duckworth,
Democrat of Illinois, and former Representative Stephen Knight, Republican
of California.

11. The 25% lowest-paid Americans enjoyed a 4.5% income boost in November
2019, which outpaces a 2.9% gain in earnings for the country�s highest-paid
workers.

Probably true. Before the pandemic struck, low-wage workers saw wage
increases.

12. Low-wage workers are benefiting from higher minimum wages and from
corporations that are increasing entry-level pay.

It is grossly misleading to claim this as a Trump accomplishment.
Higher state and local minimum wages are results of state and local laws
increasing the minimum wage, not federal law. Mr. Trump has flip-flopped on
raising the federal minimum wage.

13. Trump signed the biggest wilderness protection & conservation bill in a
decade and designated 375,000 acres as protected land.

This is misleading. While Mr. Trump did sign the John D. Dingell Jr.
Conservation, Management and Recreation Act of 2019, he has stripped
protections from far more land than he has preserved. Most notably, he
removed some two million acres in Utah that had been part of the Bears Ears
National Monument and the Grand Staircase-Escalante in Utah. According to a
study published in May 2019 in Science, Mr. Trump is responsible for the
largest reduction in the boundaries of protected land in U.S. history.

14. Trump signed the Save our Seas Act which funds $10 million per year to
clean tons of plastic & garbage from the ocean. ????

True. The credit for the passage of this legislation goes to a
bipartisan group in Congress, namely Senator Dan Sullivan, a Republican
from Alaska, Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, a Democrat from Rhode Island, and
Senator Cory Booker, a Democrat from New Jersey.

15. He signed a bill this year allowing some drug imports from Canada so
that prescription prices would go down.

President Trump has signed a series of executive orders aimed at making
it easier for states to import cheaper drugs from Canada. But it is far
from clear whether these executive orders will succeed in that aim. This
proposal bears no resemblance to Mr. Trump�s 2016 promise to use the buying
power of the federal government to negotiate lower prices for drugs for
Medicare patients, which would save hundreds of billions of dollars over a
decade. Mr. Trump has not kept that promise. If he were serious about doing
so, he would push Republicans in the Senate to pass the Elijah E. Cummings
Lower Drug Costs Now Act, which Democrats passed last year. There�s no
evidence that he has done so.

16. Trump signed an executive order this year that forces all health care
providers to disclose the cost of their services so that Americans can
comparison shop and know how much fewer providers charge insurance
companies.

True. Hospitals are now required to publicize their prices, which was
also required by a little-known provision of the Affordable Care Act,
signed by Mr. Obama. But enforcement has been spotty, and there has been
little effort to hold hospitals to uniform standards, so it is still
difficult if not impossible for consumers to compare costs, according to
the journalism project Clear Health Costs.

17. When signing that bill he said no American should be blindsided by
bills for medical services they never agreed to in advance.

Mr. Trump did say this. Unfortunately, people are still getting
blindsided by medical bills.

18. Hospitals will now be required to post their standard charges for
services, which include the discounted price a hospital is willing to
accept.

See No. 16.

19. In the eight years prior to President Trump�s inauguration,
prescription drug prices increased by an average of 3.6% per year. Under
Trump, drug prices have seen year-over-year declines in nine of the last
ten months, with a 1.1% drop as of the most recent month.

'Voters know where their bread is buttered,' a GOP strategist said of the candidates

The House GOP is setting its sights on a handful of Democratic candidates who have been bankrolled by left-wing billionaires whose money has also gone toward promoting what Republicans call "soft-on-crime" policies.

At least eight Democratic House candidates who have positioned themselves as left-of-center or moderate have received donations from the same wealthy liberals who poured thousands into promoting progressive crime policies in states like California and Florida, campaign finance records show.

All eight are also running in competitive districts, making them prime targets for the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC), the House Republicans’ campaign arm.

"Defund the police donors backed up the Brink’s truck to bankroll the campaigns of extreme House Democrats," NRCC spokesman Will Reinert told Fox News Digital. "If elected, these far-left Democrats will work hand in hand with San Francisco liberal Kamala Harris to send violent crime rates soaring, reward felons and punish cops for trying to keep communities safe."

WEEKEND BEFORE CHICAGO HOSTS DNC, AT LEAST 30 PEOPLE SHOT, 5 MURDERED IN WINDY CITY

Among the eight is Rep. Sharice Davids, D-Kan., one of the most vulnerable Democrats this election cycle — the most recently available campaign finance data shows Davids received $3,300 in April from Quinn Delaney, a California billionaire who runs the nonprofit Akonadi Foundation.

The Akonadi Foundation committed $12.5 million to an Oakland-based initiative whose goals include closing youth prisons and taking police officers out of schools, according to its website.

Delaney also spent hundreds of thousands to help elect progressive Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascon, whose progressive reforms have been accused of making residents feel less safe during his tenure.

Delaney along with California megadonor Patty Quillin were named as two of four billionaires who "channeled $22 million toward criminal justice ballot measures and allied candidates the previous two years," Politico wrote in 2021.

DNC HOST CHICAGO, HAUNTED BY 1968 CONVENTION RIOTING, BRACES FOR BLOODSHED

Quillin and her husband, Netflix co-founder Reed Hastings, also donated $1 million to support a California measure to end the cash bail system and replace it with a risk-based assessment.

Recent campaign finance records show Quillin donated $3,300 to Will Rollins, a former prosecutor running against Rep. Ken Calvert, R-Calif.

Delaney and Quillin also both gave $3,300 to Adam Gray, who is running to unseat Rep. John Duarte, R-Calif.

Gray, a former state lawmaker, has also received two $6,600 checks from Django Bonderman and Cale Bonderman respectively, both of whom donated significantly to support a 2018 Florida ballot initiative to grant most felons the right to vote.

The Harris campaign previously had to clarify Gov Tim Walz's military service

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and his wife, first lady Gwen Walz, have clarified that they conceived their children not through IVF, as the governor had previously said or implied in interviews, but through another fertility treatment.

Republican vice presidential nominee Sen. JD Vance of Ohio, took to social media platform X, formerly Twitter, to seize on the revelation and ask, "Who lies about something like that?" after asserting that Walz had deceived the public about having children via IVF, adding to his earlier attack that Walz had "lied" about his service in the National Guard.

But the Harris-Walz campaign hit back at Vance:

"The Trump campaign's attacks on Mrs. Walz are just another example of how cruel and out of touch Donald Trump and JD Vance are when it comes to women's healthcare," Harris-Walz campaign spokesperson Mia Ehrenberg told Fox News Digital. "Infertility is a deeply personal journey, but the Governor and Mrs. Walz came forward to share their story because they know that MAGA attacks on reproductive rights are putting all fertility treatments at risk."

FORMER TEACHER REVEALS WHICH STUDENTS SUFFERED ‘THE MOST’ UNDER WALZ'S PANDEMIC-ERA GUIDELINES

Harris campaign spokesperson Mia Ehrenberg argued to CNN that Tim Walz "talks how normal people talk. He was using commonly understood shorthand for fertility treatments." The couple did not receive in vitro fertilization (IVF) but instead intrauterine insemination (IUI).
