NOW: "my administration has been working around the clock and good faith to reach an agreement with Democrats on additional [COVID] relief," @realDonaldTrump says. Not only is it a lie, but he used a racist term I won't repeat here.

"I've just signed two bills that are great for our vets," @realDonaldTrump says. Unclear whether he means executive orders or actual legislation.

He's also repeating the frequently-told lie that he signed VA choice into law. @BarackObama did this in 2014.

. @realDonaldTrump says one of them requires the VA to establish "a treatment court program for vets who need treatment rather than punishment for certain non violent crimes."

Last I checked, only Congress can create courts.

. @realDonaldTrump is continuing to refer to executive orders as "bills."

They are not.

. @realDonaldTrump is currently lying about what "ballot harvesting" is. Republicans also use it in states that allow it, and voters still have to sign an affidavit confirming that they filled out their ballot.

. @realDonaldTrump now complaining about the HEROES Act releasing prisoners because prisons become COVID hotspots, apparently unaware that Paul Manafort was released from prison for the exact same reason.

This is not a news conference. This is an old man rambling about his enemies and things like "broadband airports."

This "payroll tax holiday" is not a tax cut. At the end of it, all deferred taxes will need to be paid, which means workers will get months worth of payroll taxes taken out of their checks at once like an subprime mortgage "balloon payments."

. @realDonaldTrump says he wants to "terminate" payroll taxes. He just gave Democrats a massive opening because what he's talking about would end Social Security.

. @realDonaldTrump now claiming he's providing extra $400/week in unemployment benefits via executive order.

Article 1, Section 9, Clause 7 of the Constitution says "No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law."

"We're further looking at additional tax cuts including...income tax cuts and capital gains tax cuts...for the purpose of creating jobs," @realDonaldTrump says. The 2017 tax cuts did not create the jobs promised, and further tax cuts would mean more deficits/borrowing from China.

"You have stocks in these companies, you know you own stocks," @realDonaldTrump says, clearly addressing the wealthy golf club members who have paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to be in the room with him today.

“We’re coming back very strong,” @realDonaldTrump says.

FACT CHECK:

"marriages that were very good turn out to be very bad," @realDonaldTrump says, straying into a subject on which he has considerable expertise through his three marriages and two divorces.

. @realDonaldTrump is now signing the various executive orders, which he appears to be seeing for the first time.

. @realDonaldTrump tells @KellyO that it's not a hardship for families to only get $400 extra after getting $600 checks for months. He claims it was a disincentive to work (and offers no evidence for this).

Told that Americans want to see relief funds soon, @realDonaldTrump points to the stack of signed orders and says: "There it is."

After he cuts off a (female, of course) reporter the wealthy golf club crowd who paid to be there cheers. Event over, thread done.
