Fact-check: Trump misleads on Iran, AI in UN speech

President Donald Trump made misleading statements about the Iran war and artificial intelligence in a speech to the United Nations General Assembly on Sept. 22, according to a fact-check by PolitiFact. The fact-check found Trump's claims about U.S. munitions stockpiles, drug seizures, and oil reserves were inaccurate or exaggerated, while his dismissal of AI risks contradicted warnings from top industry leaders. Iranian and Cuban delegations walked out during the speech. Trump's assertion that the U.S. and Venezuela hold over 60% of the world's oil is false, with combined proven reserves at 21.9%. His claim of destroying 97% of cartel drugs at sea lacks evidence, as seizures don't measure total drug flow.
