Trump: “I have nothing to do with Project 2025”
FACT CHECK: This is a lie. At least 140 Project 2025 authors are Trump aides and advisors.

The smoke -- making the Eastern U.S. look like California at the peak of fire season -- is not normal.
The air is compromised from Minneapolis to DC to Boston, and the worst from western NY to arround Ottawa. A thread... 1/
