TL;DR Summary

FactCheck.org finds Trump’s Meet the Press interview filled with unverified or false assertions: California election results and voting delays as proof of a ‘rigged’ system, claims about no new wars and Iran’s nuclear capabilities, and allegations about FBI involvement in Jan. 6 without supporting evidence. The piece explains why California’s vote counting can take time due to mail-in ballots and signature checks, cites experts that Iran’s enrichment accelerated after the JCPOA withdrawal, and notes U.S. intelligence and IAEA assessments indicating Iran is not building a weapon. It also debunks Trump’s other repeated claims, including a 2016 $1.7 billion payment to Iran and misstatements about the economy, gas prices, and factory construction.
