**Fact-Check Report: Trump's Claims in 100 Days Speech Scrutinized**

**Amid claims of success in various sectors, fact-checkers clarify the realities behind President Trump's assertions in his first 100 days.**

President Donald Trump commemorated his first 100 days in office with a rally in Michigan, declaring it "the most successful first 100 days of any administration in the history of our country, according to many, many people." During the speech, he covered several topics including illegal immigration, job creation, and inflation. Here, we fact-check some of his statements.

Trump claimed that "gasoline prices are down by a lot." However, the average price for a gallon of regular gasoline stood at $3.16 as of April 29, which is slightly higher than the price of $3.125 on his inauguration day. His assertion that gas prices were "just hit $1.98 in a lot of states" lacks evidence, as no state reported an average price below $2.67 at that time.

Regarding the cost of eggs, Trump stated, "Since I took office, the cost of eggs is down 87%." This claim is inaccurate. The average price for a dozen large Grade A eggs rose from approximately $4.95 at the time he took office to a peak of around $6.23 in March. Although wholesale prices have decreased by about 52%, they have not dropped anywhere near what Trump claimed.

On immigration, Trump asserted that his administration had achieved "the lowest number of illegal border crossings ever recorded," referencing recent statistics showing 7,181 encounters in March, a decrease from prior years. However, while these figures are indeed lower than those in recent months, they are the lowest in the context of recorded monthly statistics since 2000, not historically.

Additionally, Trump praised representatives from the Department of Government Efficiency (Doge), stating they had saved over $150 billion from waste and fraud. The figure listed on their website does total $160 billion, but only a part of this amount is substantiated with clear documentation, raising questions over claims of savings.

When discussing job creation, Trump stated that his administration had added 350,000 jobs in three months, a claim supported by data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, which shows approximately 345,000 jobs created in total. Nevertheless, this number is below the 468,000 jobs added during the same period under President Biden last year.

In conclusion, while Trump highlighted specific areas of progress, many of the claims made during his speech have been identified as overstated or lacking robust evidence, emphasizing the importance of critical fact-checking in political discourse.
