In a recent Threads post, a video clip from “The Chris Salcedo Show” on Newsmax sparked controversy by suggesting that President Donald Trump forgot to swear in Tulsi Gabbard as the director of national intelligence. The clip shows Trump thanking reporters in the White House and walking past Gabbard and U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi. However, the post’s claim that Trump was confused and forgot to swear in Gabbard was deemed false upon fact-checking.

Contrary to the video’s caption, Trump did not attempt to leave the Oval Office without swearing in Gabbard. In reality, Bondi had already administered the oath, as confirmed by C-SPAN footage of the event. The misunderstanding arose from a production error that led to the delayed feed being sent out of order, not from any oversight in Gabbard’s swearing-in.

Despite the misleading nature of the video, it garnered significant attention on Threads, accumulating 2,900 likes within a short period. This incident serves as a reminder of the importance of verifying information before drawing conclusions based on social media content. Both USA TODAY and Reuters have debunked the claim, highlighting the need for accurate reporting and fact-checking in today’s digital landscape.
