NBC fact-check debunks Trump’s Meet the Press claims on Iran, Jan. 6, and gas prices

NBC News’ fact-check of Trump’s Meet the Press interview finds several claims misleading: his assertions about an Iran war and a supposed “obliterated” nuclear site are not supported by intelligence or outcomes, with experts noting Iran had not decisively decided to pursue a weapon and the strikes did not destroy all Iranian military assets; cautions that even if a deal is reached, gas prices hinge on global inventories and market rebalancing; the proposed $1.8 billion “anti-weaponization” fund wasn’t moving forward, while on Jan. 6 Trump downplayed actions, and claims of California election fraud lack evidence; overall, the piece emphasizes that NBC News’ review contradicts several of Trump’s statements."
