| Description: | A screenshot of a Gettr post critical of U.S. foreign aid to Ukraine has been attributed to Kid Rock, but it originated on a fan account. We couldn’t find a Gettr account for Kid Rock, and it’s not listed among the social media accounts on his website. Kid Rock’s website links to his YouTube account and his verified Facebook, Instagram and Twitter accounts. We’ve previously debunked claims that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy owns a $35 million home in Florida. We couldn’t find any credible sources to corroborate the claim in this Gettr post, either. As for the claim that Kid Rock authored it, we rate that False. |
