Outgoing Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt’s Worst Moments
5 attributed claims Published August 2026
-
DOGE and OMB found that approximately $50 million in taxpayer money was about to be spent on condoms in Gaza.
AP found no credible evidence supporting the claim and reported that the administration appeared to be referring to medical-service grants to International Medical Corps, not a $50 million condom program. The Washington Post likewise found no evidence that the contracts called for condom delivery.
-
No other U.S. president has faced repeated, serious attempts on his life comparable to those faced by Donald Trump.
The absolute historical claim is contradicted by Gerald Ford's experience: the Ford Presidential Library records that he faced a second assassination attempt less than a month after the first. The National Archives also documents multiple serious presidential assassination attempts in U.S. history.

The president supports peaceful protests.
This accurately states the administration's declared position. White House officials have repeatedly said that Trump supports the right to peaceful protest, while distinguishing peaceful demonstrations from violence or property destruction.
-
Kilmar Abrego Garcia was an MS-13 member, an undocumented immigrant, a criminal, and was hiding in Maryland.
The wording combines an unproven gang allegation with labels that imply criminal conviction and concealment. Courts found no evidence linking him to MS-13 in the relevant proceedings, described him as having no criminal record, and documented his return to Maryland; the government nevertheless continued to publicly assert gang membership.
-
Trump said that taking Putin's call while other leaders were present would have been disrespectful to Putin.
Contemporary reporting quoted Trump explaining that he did not take or place the call in front of the other leaders because he thought doing so would be disrespectful to Putin.
