Fact-checkers analyzed statements President Trump made during an appearance on NBC's "Meet the Press," testing his claims across multiple topics including Iran policy, the January 6 Capitol riot and California's election system.

On Iran, Trump discussed U.S. military actions and tensions with the country. Fact-checkers compared his characterization of events to documented timelines and statements from administration officials at the time.

The president also addressed the January 6, 2021 Capitol riot. Fact-checkers examined Trump's descriptions of that day against video evidence, court records and witness testimony from the House select committee that investigated the events.

Trump commented on California's primary election system. Fact-checkers reviewed his statements against California election law and voting data to assess their accuracy.

Fact-checkers did not release a final determination on all claims during the initial review. The analysis represents an ongoing effort to examine public statements against available evidence and official records.
