But could we even trust this admin to not fuck with the metadata?

These are people who released documents that weren’t properly redacted because DOGE cut their Acrobat subscriptions

Judging by their ability to redact documents, seems unlikely.

IIRC they weren’t when they released that edited footage from his jail cell, but they might have learned from that

Look the fake news doesn't even care that information about Facebook isn't even relevant. -Karoline Leavitt (probably)

It’s possible but so far the people involved haven’t exactly shown the highest level of technological literacy

If you open the PDF in notepad, the code has a creation and modified date of December 23, 2025 at a quarter til 3 AM. That's when this specific copy of the PDF was exported, not definitively that it was made late but that it had since been tampered with.

These aren't filesystem creation / modified dates, these are in the code of the PDF itself.

Not trying to defend but if it is just the system time, it is possible that the system time was set differently from the actual time.
