Trump’s Walz cyberattack claim debunked by CNN fact-check

During a Camp David cabinet meeting, Trump repeated a baseless claim that Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz was behind recent cyberattacks on water systems. CNN’s fact-check finds no credible basis for the assertion, citing FBI and EPA statements that incidents occurred in several states with no evidence tying Walz or Minnesota to the attacks. Walz’s team pushed back, and the piece also notes several Trump statements about the economy, inflation, immigration and foreign policy that are disputed or misstated.
