White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has recently faced a significant and publicly embarrassing fact check regarding her ongoing misinformation about grocery prices in the U.S. In a Tuesday post on X, she shared a White House press release claiming, “Prices are steadying and wages are climbing,” referencing a new DoorDash report. However, critics swiftly refuted her assertions, labeling her comments as “misleading.” The community note on her post clarified that the DoorDash data indicated food prices were indeed rising, with the average cost of several items surging. The note compared this information to the USDA's food cost data, which also pointed to increases. As Leavitt's post attracted over 4.4 million views, social media users ridiculed her reliance on a food delivery report to substantiate economic claims, further amplifying scrutiny on her credibility. Similar misleading narratives have emerged from Trump, raising questions about their understanding of current economic conditions.
