Louder with CrowderRight Wing Dominates Brazil Elections As Trump Doctrine Spreads FEAT Journalist Paulo FigueiredoWhole episode, 1:02:45
What it claims
Claims
- 1MixedA lab worker in Russia may have been exposed to the pneumonic plague.As of 2026-10-05, the claim that a lab worker 'may have been exposed' to pneumonic plague was a live suspicion: media reports and a regional governor raised it, and WHO described plague as suspected following occupational lab exposure. Russian authorities denied any biosecurity incident or plague exposure, and WHO later said no plague case was registered, so the exposure itself was never confirmed or established.8 sources →
- 2TrueSouth and Central American countries have not elected a left-wing president since the defunding of USAID.As of the October 5, 2026 posting, sources consistently report that no left-wing candidate had won a completed presidential election in Central or South America since the USAID cuts began in 2025, and the claim is graded on that date. Sources also note that the claim is a factual observation about elections, not a proven causal link, and a later Hudson Institute report says the left won Brazil's October 2026 runoff, which postdates the claim.7 sources →
- 3Can’t tellAmerican Financing offers rates in the 5s with an APR starting at 6.327% for well-qualified borrowers.The claim faithfully reflects the sponsor read in the post, but the only sources are repeated American Financing ad copy, which is circular and not independent verification of the 6.327% APR. No independent source (regulator, lender rate sheet, or fact-checker) confirms or disputes the rate as of 2026-08-19.8 sources →
- 4TruePaulo Figueiredo has been banned and threatened with prison.Independent sources, including a congressional hearing description and a news analysis, report that Brazilian authorities blocked Figueiredo from social platforms and that he faces criminal investigation and prosecution, which supports both 'banned' and 'threatened with prison.' Most detail on the arrest-warrant threat comes from Figueiredo's own testimony and advocacy filings, so confidence is capped.6 sources →
- 5Can’t tellAmerican Financing customers are saving over 800 dollars a month on average.The only sources showing the $800 figure are American Financing's own website and its sponsor ads, which are the company's self-claims and not independent verification. The website's footnote limits the average to customers who closed a cash-out refinance with debt-consolidation savings from July 2024 to June 2026, which is narrower than the claim's 'customers' generally. The post itself is a sponsor read, and the claim is faithfully extracted from it.4 sources →
- 6Can’t tellThe History Wizard holds a master's degree in Holocaust and Genocide Studies.None of the sources verifies the History Wizard's credentials. The program pages only describe Holocaust and Genocide Studies degrees, and the single Reddit comment that mentions the_history_wizard holding such a degree is a removed, unauthoritative post that merely echoes the claim, so it cannot corroborate it.4 sources →
- 7TrueThe History Wizard claims that as a member of the working class living under capitalism, the only means of production an individual has access to is their own body.The extracted claim faithfully paraphrases the post's first sentence, and the sources support it on the standard Marxist definition: wage workers own no means of production and have only their labour power to sell, which the sources tie to the body. The post's own follow-up ('Incorrect', body as the tool of labour) is the speaker's rebuttal of a broader point, not a source contradicting the claim's content.6 sources →
- 8FalseAlexandria Ocasio-Cortez coined the term 'woke one' on August 9th.The claim that Ocasio-Cortez coined 'woke one' is contradicted by the sources, which attribute the phrase to New York City Council member Chi Ossé, whose May 2026 post used it first. Ocasio-Cortez repeated the phrase in her August 9, 2026 ABC interview, but the record does not show she originated it.6 sources →
- 9TrueNew York Governor Kathy Hochul named Attorney General Letitia James as special prosecutor in the Cornell University sexual assault case.Multiple tier-1 sources, including Reuters, AP, the governor's office, and the Attorney General's own press release, report that Governor Kathy Hochul signed an executive order on October 1, 2026 appointing Attorney General Letitia James as special prosecutor in the Cornell University sexual assault case, so the claim was true as of October 5, 2026. The extraction faithfully reflects the post's statement that Hochul made the decision, and the later October 29 petition seeking James's removal does not change the state of affairs on the claim's date.8 sources →
- 10TrueDemocrats need 48 more electoral votes to enshrine a national popular vote.Sources consistently report that the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact had 222 electoral votes pledged after Virginia joined in April 2026, leaving 48 short of the 270 needed, so the 48-vote figure was accurate as of 2026-10-05. The 'Democrats' framing is a loose characterization because the gap is filled by state legislatures, which sources say Democrats mostly control, and 'enshrine' overstates a compact that is not a constitutional change.6 sources →
- 11Can’t tellDemocrats are planning to drop millions of phony ballots.The extracted claim that Democrats are planning to drop millions of phony ballots departs from the passage, which only says Democrats need 48 more electoral votes to enshrine a national popular vote and never mentions ballot fraud. Sources discuss Trump-aligned fraud claims and find mail-ballot fraud rare, but none shows Democrats planning such an act, so the claim cannot be graded against the post.3 sources →
- 12TruePresident Biden attempted to cancel $430 billion in student loans.Multiple tier-1 and tier-2 sources report that Biden's administration attempted to cancel about $430 billion in student loan debt, and that the Supreme Court struck the plan down in June 2023. The claim matches the post's wording, and the figure is consistent with the sources' $430 billion (others say $400 billion).7 sources →
- 13TrueA 28-year-old Russian researcher died after being hospitalized with symptoms of severe pneumonia.The core facts hold: a 28-year-old lab worker at the Irkutsk Anti-Plague Research Institute died in hospital in Shelekhov after pneumonia. WHO's statement, relayed by PBS, specifically says she died after being hospitalized with severe pneumonia, while Russian authorities described it as pneumonia of unknown etiology. The claim does not assert a plague cause, and the sources do not contradict the claim.6 sources →
- 14FalseA researcher in the Irkutsk region of Siberia allegedly broke a test tube containing the pathogen of pneumonic plague.Local Russian media reported the allegation that the lab worker broke a test tube containing the pneumonic plague pathogen, and the claim accurately reports that it was alleged. However, DW Fact Check found no independent evidence of a leak and rated the lab-accident claims unproven, Rospotrebnadzor said no work-related microorganisms were detected, and WHO found no evidence of ongoing transmission, so the allegation as an event is dismissed. The post's 'a week ago' timing and the Irkutsk location match the sources, and the worker is named as Darya Shipilova, a 28-year-old at the Irkutsk Anti-Plague Research Institute.11 sources →
- 15TrueMore than 60 employees at a research facility in Irkutsk are under forced quarantine.As of 2026-10-05, multiple outlets reported that more than 60 staff at the Irkutsk Anti-Plague Institute were isolated or quarantined inside the facility after a worker's death, matching the claim's figure and forced nature. Reports of the quarantine were later lifted on Oct 8, which does not make the October 5 claim false, and the figure rests on media reports citing sources rather than an official count.6 sources →
- 16FalseThree hospitals in the Irkutsk region are under quarantine.The claim that three hospitals in the Irkutsk region were under quarantine is contradicted by the sources: the only hospital confirmed under quarantine was the Shelekhov District Hospital, and Irkutsk hospitals denied the closures reported by Lyudi Baikala, with Russia telling WHO that no other facility was quarantined. The claim also drops the post's word "other," so it reads as three hospitals in addition to the Shelekhov one, which the record does not support as of 2026-10-05.4 sources →
- 17TrueSenator Marco Rubio stated that the United States is monitoring the situation regarding the potential plague exposure in Russia.Multiple sources confirm that Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the US is monitoring the suspected plague situation in Russia, including a Reuters report quoting him saying "We're watching it very closely, hour by hour." The claim's wording is a faithful paraphrase of the post, which refers to the same Russian plague incident, and no source contradicts it.8 sources →
- 18TruePneumonic plague is one of three types of plague, including bubonic and septicemic, and it infects the lungs.Multiple authoritative sources (U.S. State Department view via Snopes, CDC-cited material, Reuters, WHO, OSHA, Tennessee Department of Health, MedlinePlus) confirm that plague has three main types: bubonic, septicemic, and pneumonic, and that pneumonic plague infects the lungs. The claim's extraction drops the transcript's garbled phrasing but preserves the core assertions, which are graded as supported.9 sources →
- 19FalsePneumonic plague spreads airborne, person to person.The claim that pneumonic plague spreads airborne is contradicted by the CDC's MMWR recommendations, which state that no evidence exists for airborne transmission of Y. pestis because it travels in large droplets that do not stay suspended in air. The claim's person-to-person element is supported, and some outlets describe droplet spread, but the airborne mechanism is the claim's central assertion and the authoritative sources reject it.7 sources →
- 20TruePneumonic plague can be deadly if not treated within 18 to 24 hours of symptom onset.WHO's plague fact sheet (source 2) states that untreated pneumonic plague can be fatal within 18 to 24 hours of disease onset, matching the claim; other sources (CDC guidance, Canada.ca, the Arizona coverage) give the same or a 24-hour window, and the claim's 'could be deadly' framing is faithful to the passage.7 sources →
- 21TrueThere is no publicly available vaccine for pneumonic plague.Multiple sources state that no plague vaccine is currently available for public use, including pneumonic plague: Gavi says none are widely available, and a science.gov compilation says no efficient vaccine is currently available. The claim matches the post's own wording and the record as of 2026-10-05, though most sources are US-specific or lack direct worldwide wording. Israeli researchers' 2025 mRNA candidate is described as not yet available for use, so it does not contradict the claim.7 sources →
- 22TrueRussia is monitoring people leaving the region and taking temperature checks.Several reports from around October 6, 2026 describe temperature checks on passengers flying from the Irkutsk region to Moscow during the plague scare, which matches the claim that Russia was screening people leaving the region. The support is thin: it rests on unverified reports, one of which cites a tweet, and the Astrakhan checks found in the sources are on arrivals for flu and COVID and are dated after the post, so they do not bear on it.7 sources →
- 23TrueThe Russian government has stated there is no plague.Multiple sources show Russian federal bodies, including Rospotrebnadzor, the Kremlin, and Russian regulators reporting to WHO, denied that plague was present in the Irkutsk case, which matches the claim as of 2026-10-05. The sources describe the cause as pneumonia of undetermined origin, which is consistent with "no plague"; the claim does not depart from the post.7 sources →
- 24TrueFlavio Bolsonaro came in first in the Brazilian presidential election and will face incumbent President Lula in a runoff.Flávio Bolsonaro finished first in the October 4, 2026 first round, and the top two advanced to an October 25 runoff against Lula, so the claim was true as of 2026-10-05. Later sources report Lula won the runoff, but that does not make the October 5 claim false.8 sources →
- 25MixedLuis Ignacio de Silva has served four non-consecutive terms as Brazil's president.The sources show Lula won a fourth non-consecutive presidential term on Oct 25, 2026, which supports the intended reading that he was elected to four non-consecutive terms. Literally, though, he has served three terms (2003–2010 and 2023–present), and the fourth begins January 5, 2027, so 'has served four' is contradicted, and the claim was posted before the election.5 sources →
- 26TrueJair Bolsonaro is serving a 27-year prison term for his role in a military coup and conspiracy to overturn his 2022 election defeat.Tier-1 sources (AP, BBC, Reuters, NPR) report that Brazil's Supreme Court sentenced Jair Bolsonaro in September 2025 to 27 years and 3 months for plotting a coup to stay in power after losing the 2022 election. Business Standard (November 2025) reports he began serving the sentence, and Britannica says the court ordered him to begin serving it on November 25, 2025, so the claim that he was serving the term as of 2026-10-05 is supported. The extraction faithfully reflects the passage, and the 'military coup' wording matches the BBC and NPR framing.8 sources →
- 27TrueBolsonaro's party made gains in both houses of Brazil's legislature, and the former president's wife and his other son won seats in the Brazilian Senate.The claim holds as of 2026-10-05: the Liberal Party (PL) made gains in both the Chamber and the Senate, and Michelle Bolsonaro (the former president's wife) and Carlos Bolsonaro (his second son) won Senate seats. Reuters, News24 and Covington independently report these results, and the claim's wording matches the post's wording.4 sources →
- 28TrueBrazilian Supreme Court Justice Moraes has been given unilateral authority to censor what he deemed disinformation.Multiple sources support the claim that Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes held unilateral power to order content removed or censored as disinformation, as of the October 2026 post date. Freedom House reports that TSE regulations let the court president act unilaterally to remove false electoral information, and America's Quarterly, CSIS and the White House fact sheet describe Moraes issuing unilateral orders against content he deemed disinformation. The White House and Truthdig sources are advocacy-leaning, but the core assertion is corroborated by independent reporting and the Freedom House report.7 sources →
- 29Can’t tellLula's government has jailed journalists in Brazil.The claim departs from the passage: the post attributes the jailing of journalists to Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes's censorship authority, not to Lula's government. Sources describe Moraes jailing people over social-media posts, and an RSF report (unrated) says press freedom improved under Lula, but no source establishes that Lula's government itself jailed journalists, so the claim as extracted cannot be graded.5 sources →
- 30OpinionThe Brazilian judiciary and Lula's government are persecuting the right and censoring journalists.A judgement, not a statement of fact. It has no true or false answer.
- 31FalseUSAID funding for Brazil was 11 million dollars in 2018, 36 million in 2019, 48 million in 2020, and 19 million in the year Bolsonaro was defeated.The claim's central figures are contradicted by the primary State Department/USAID table, which shows Brazil at about $11.4M in FY2018, $11.6M in FY2019, and $20.1M in FY2020, not $36M and $48M, so the claimed tripling and quadrupling do not hold. The 2018 figure and the roughly $19M figure for the defeat year are consistent with the table, but the 2019 and 2020 figures are grossly overstated, and the claim's spike narrative rests on them.4 sources →
- 32TrueUSAID has been disbanded in South America.Sources show USAID was dismantled: its programs were cut 83% on March 10, 2025, and its remaining functions were transferred to the State Department on July 1, 2025, with operations ending in September 2025, which covers South America as well. The claim's core assertion that USAID has been disbanded is supported, though the sources do not directly address the South America framing beyond the agency's overall dismantling and the claim's 'eight elections' trend is outside this claim's scope.6 sources →
- 33TrueAngela Davis was a two-time Communist VP candidate in the United States.Angela Davis ran for vice president on the Communist Party USA ticket in 1980 and 1984, as Gus Hall's running mate, which matches the claim. The claim is extracted faithfully from the passage, and the Castro-regime assertion is outside the extracted claim.7 sources →
- 34MixedParaguay has been governed by a conservative form of government since 1947.Sources support that the conservative Colorado Party has governed Paraguay almost continuously since 1947, which matches the post's hedged 'almost entirely' wording. The extracted claim drops that qualifier, and sources show a 2008–2013 opposition period that contradicts an unqualified 'has been governed' reading.5 sources →
- 35TrueEduardo Bolsonaro is currently in exile in Texas.Multiple sources, including AP and BBC, report that Eduardo Bolsonaro has lived in Texas since early 2025, was convicted in absentia in June 2026, and has avoided arrest in Brazil by remaining there. That supports the claim as of 2026-10-05, though the sources don't use the word 'exile' themselves, and the claim's 'close to you' phrasing is the claimant's own aside.3 sources →
- 36Can’t tellRumble and Locals are currently blocked in Brazil.Sources consistently show Rumble was blocked in Brazil from February 2025 and still inaccessible in mid-2025, with a 2026 source saying it was reblocked after a brief restoration, so the Rumble part is supported as of 2026-10-05. No source mentions Locals at all, and the extracted claim turns the post's vague 'locals still out of the country' into a claim that the Locals platform is blocked, which the passage does not say.6 sources →
- 37Can’t tellPolymarket showed Lula having a 61% chance of winning the Brazilian election in the first round as of October 4, 2026.None of the provided sources reports Polymarket's first-round odds for Lula on October 4, 2026, so the 61% figure cannot be checked. The sources show Flavio Bolsonaro won the first round and that Polymarket's post-first-round odds favored Bolsonaro, but those figures do not grade the claimed 61% Lula first-place probability.5 sources →
- 38MixedThe right-wing political bloc holds 51 out of 81 seats in the Brazilian Senate.The sources do not give a 51-seat figure for the right-wing bloc. The Liberal Party alone is reported at 28 of 81 seats (CRS: 29), while estimates for the wider right-wing bloc range from about 37 with allies (Buenos Aires Herald) to 'at least 50' (ORF) and 68 (Interaffairs), so 51 falls inside a disputed range that depends on how the bloc is defined.10 sources →
- 39TrueJair Bolsonaro's wife ran for the Senate and won her seat.Multiple independent tier1 and other sources (AP, Valor/Globo, LA Times, News24, US News) confirm Michelle Bolsonaro, wife of Jair Bolsonaro, won a Federal District Senate seat in the October 2026 election. The claim's core (wife ran for Senate and won) is supported; the post's 'former First Lady' and 'still his wife' descriptions are also consistent with sources, and the 'he's in prison' detail matches reporting of his house-arrest sentence.8 sources →
- 40TrueJair Bolsonaro's son Carlos won a seat in the Brazilian Senate.Multiple independent sources, including AP (tier1) and France 24, report that Carlos Bolsonaro was elected senator for Santa Catarina in the October 4, 2026 election, with a later Ground News tally showing him elected. The post's 'won for the Senate in the south' matches this, and the claim's wording is a faithful paraphrase of the passage.5 sources →
- 41FalseUSAID funded initiatives and NGOs in Brazil that censored conservatives.The claim that USAID funded Brazilian NGOs and initiatives that censored conservatives rests on allegations from Mike Benz and Brazilian politicians, which echo one another and are not independently documented. The most specific independent analysis found little evidence of USAID election interference or Brazil-specific democracy or media spending, and the only censorship-related grant it mentions was a $1 million State Department award with no recipient named. Sources are mostly low-credibility, so confidence is moderate.8 sources →
- 42TrueJair Bolsonaro lost the 2022 Brazilian presidential election by 1.8 percentage points.Multiple tier1 and unrated sources confirm that in the 2022 runoff Lula won 50.9% to Bolsonaro's 49.1%, a margin of 1.8 percentage points (about 2.1 million votes). The claim's extraction matches the post's own wording, and the 'supposedly' hedge does not change the core figure.8 sources →
- 43Can’t tellBrazilian Supreme Court officers received training from the FBI on how to combat disinformation and hate speech.No authoritative source confirms that Brazilian Supreme Court officers received FBI training in the United States on combating disinformation and hate speech. The only related material is a low-credibility report and a partisan piece describing FBI engagement with the electoral court (TSE) on fake news in 2018, which is a different body and event, so the claim is not directly graded either way.3 sources →
- 44FalseDonald Trump won the 2024 United States presidential election by a landslide, along with the House, the Senate, and several state governments.Trump did win the 2024 presidency, and Republicans did gain the Senate and retain the House, but PolitiFact found his victory was not a landslide by historical standards, with small margins in both the Electoral College and popular vote. The House majority was narrow (220-215), so the landslide framing is contradicted by the sources.6 sources →
- 45FalseIn the years prior to 2026, 3 to 4 million people entered the United States annually without screening.The claim's annual figure of 3 to 4 million unscreened entries is not supported by the sources. CBO's count of people observed entering but not caught was about 670,674 in FY2023, and the DHS finding describes unscreened gotaways as 'millions over the last several years', a cumulative figure rather than an annual one. The extraction faithfully reflects the post's 'three, 4 million people getting in unscreened every year'.4 sources →
- 46FalseThe Brazilian judiciary is attempting to stop Flavio Bolsonaro from taking office through the courts.The claim departs from the passage only slightly: the post was conditional and about 'if Flavio win', but the claim presents a present court effort to block him from taking office. Sources dated after 2026-10-05 show Lula won the runoff, so there was no office to take, and the one court action against Flavio (the passport order) was tied to a separate case, not the election. No source shows courts trying to block his taking office as of 2026-10-05.4 sources →
- 47FalseFBI agents incited the January 6th Capitol riot.Multiple authoritative fact-checks and a DOJ Inspector General probe found no credible evidence that FBI agents incited the January 6 Capitol riot; the claim is a debunked conspiracy theory, and the post's 'agent provocateurs' framing matches it. Sources note FBI agents were present and responded to the attack, and a DOJ IG report confirmed 26 informants in DC with no evidence they were told to join the assault.6 sources →
- 48TrueTheo Von hosted Mayor Mandomani on his show.Multiple sources confirm that Theo Von hosted New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani on his podcast, This Past Weekend, in an interview released October 1, 2026. The claim's spelling "Mandomani" is a misspelling of Mamdani, and the referent is clearly the same person.6 sources →
- 49MixedThe odds of Bolsonaro winning the election are 83% according to Kalshi.The claim's 83% figure falls within the range Kalshi odds for Bolsonaro reportedly held after the first round (mid-70s to high-80s per The Atlantic), and a Kalshi post on Oct 24 showed 83%, but no source gives Kalshi's exact reading on Oct 5, the claimed date. The post says "Calci," which the extraction reads as Kalshi, and the 83% figure is not confirmed for Oct 5 specifically.6 sources →
- 50TrueJair Bolsonaro was sentenced to 27 years in prison.Multiple tier1 sources (Reuters, BBC, AP) report that Brazil's Supreme Court sentenced Jair Bolsonaro in September 2025 to 27 years and three months in prison for plotting a coup, and AP later reported in November 2025 that he began serving it. The claim's 27 years is the rounded figure of that sentence, and the post's wording matches the extraction.5 sources →
- 51MixedMore than 2,000 people were arrested in Brazil following the 2023 crackdown on the right.The sources give competing arrest totals for the January 8, 2023 riots: contemporaneous reports cite roughly 1,000 to 1,500 arrests, while a Federal Police figure cited on Wikipedia (2,151 on January 9) and a Students For Liberty post say more than 2,000. Freedom House says 'as many as 2,000,' which falls short of 'more than 2,000.' The figure is therefore disputed, and the claim's 'crackdown on the right' framing is the claimant's characterization rather than something the sources establish.7 sources →

a glorified Ponzi scheme in which the taxpayer funds generational feminist Marxist propaganda and indoctrination, in which you lose the country forever.
What it’s built on
- Hidden knowledge · suppressionA suppressed truth only the awake can see
They're just going to try and hide it.
Their strategy is to hide it and force it through subversively
They're gonna hide it. They're going to force it through subversively
- ConspiracySecret coordination by powerful actors
it seems like there was obviously a concerted effort here.
Your tax dollars were funding Communist, Marxist pseudo-dictators across Latin America.
- DistrustCalls courts and police illegitimate
Cornell University has failed this survivor.
The judge, Maria, who we've talked about, one of the greatest threats to liberty, really, in the Western Hemisphere, he's been given unilateral authority to censor what he deemed disinformation
