  • FACT CHECK: Did Texas Gift Trump 355,000 Acres Of Land For Deportation Camps? A viral post shared on Threads claims the state of Texas purportedly gifted President-elect Donald Trump 355,000 acres of land for deportation camps. View on Threads Verdict: False The claim is false and was debunked by Lead Stories on Nov. 22. Fact Check: A recent CBS News/YouGov poll indicates 59% of Americans approve of Trump’s handling of his presidential transition, according to the outlet. The same poll found that 31% of Americans are happy Trump won the 2024 presidential election, while 24% are satisfied by his win, the outlet reported. The Threads post, which has received over 1,000 likes as of writing, claims Texas has purportedly gifted Trump 355,000 acres of land for deportation camps. “Texas just gifted Trump 355,000 acres for deportation camps. I want you to think about that critically,” the Threads post, which does not provide a source to support its claim, reads. The claim is false. A comment shared on the post indicates Dawn Buckingham, commissioner of the Texas General Land Office, offered Trump a 1,402-acre ranch in Starr County for the “construction of deportation facilities.” The comment is corroborated by a Nov. 19 article from the Texas Tribune. According to the article, Buckingham said in a recent letter that “her office is ‘fully prepared’ to enter an agreement with any federal agencies involved in deporting individuals from the country ‘to allow a facility to be built for the processing, detention, and coordination of the largest deportation of violent criminals in the nation’s history.'” The article also indicates the state of Texas purchased land “along the U.S.-Mexico border in the Rio Grande valley,” where it plans to build a border wall. (RELATED: Did Trump Leave Mar-A-Lago In An Ambulance?) Likewise, Check Your Fact found no credible news reports to support the claim involving the 355,000 acres of land made via the Threads post. Actually, the opposite is true. On Nov. 22, Lead Stories debunked the claim, referencing the same letter from Buckingham. In addition, Trump does not appear to have publicly commented on the claim via his official website, his TRUTH Social account, or his verified social media accounts. Check Your Fact has contacted a Trump spokesperson and Buckingham’s office for comment.
