Keep Kansas Great, Super PAC supporting Rep. Roger Marshall

“Republican Kris Kobach’s U.S. Senate campaign in Kansas "is being bankrolled by an anti-Trump D.C. special interest group.”

FactCheck.org rated this: Misleading

FactCheck.org says: It’s true that Club for Growth backed Sen. Ted Cruz in the 2016 Republican presidential primary. But it has had a change of heart toward President Trump, and supports his administration and his policies.

Andrew Cuomo, governor of New York

“Some states, like Montana and Nebraska, are getting more than $300,000 in federal stimulus money per reported COVID-19 case. New York is the hardest-hit state and yet we are getting only about $12,000 per case.”

PolitiFact rated this: Mostly True

PolitiFact says: Cuomo is basically right, though he addressed only one segment of the stimulus aid, and he glossed over the distinction between aid to states and aid to health care providers within those states.

Donald Trump, President of the United States

“We’re also using a sterilization process ― some great equipment that will sterilize masks up to 20 times per mask. So that’s like ordering 20 times more masks.”

PolitiFact rated this: Half True

PolitiFact says: The FDA granted emergency authorization to new technology that can sterilize respirator masks up to 20 times. In many cases, normal wear and tear means N95 respirators cannot be sanitized and reused safely.

Donald Trump, President

“The Postal Service is a joke because they’re handing out packages for Amazon and other Internet companies. And every time they bring a package, they lose money on it.”

Washington Post rated this: Four Pinocchios

Washington Post says: USPS says it is making money, as required by law. Treasury cannot show USPS is actually losing money on its contract with Amazon, as Trump claims. It can assert only that USPS does not know whether it makes a profit.
