Claimant: Donald Trump (R)
Claim: A video shows Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro “publicly surrendered” to President Trump and providing state evidence implicating Joe Biden in directing Tren de Aragua gangs.
Rating: BLATANT LIE
Explanation: The clip Trump shared was an older speech from February in which Maduro urged Trump to seek FBI and DEA records and made unsubstantiated accusations about U.S. officials. Maduro did not surrender, has continued to appear at rallies, and has denounced U.S. policy as “psychological terrorism,” showing no sign of capitulation.
