Mixed60% confidence6 sourcesAug 11, 2026The Senate approved a new tranche of Trump appointees, reaching 95% of all his appointees.Said by CThe Senate did approve a fifth en bloc batch of 74 nominees on Aug 7, 2026, and Senate Republicans said this brought confirmations to 95% of nominations available for floor consideration, which is the measure the post meant. But the claim drops the post's qualifier 'that are ready' and reads as 95% of all of Trump's appointees, and USAFacts reports only 71.6% of all submitted nominations confirmed (as of Sept 30, 2026, after the claim date).Mixed60% confidence7 sourcesAug 11, 2026Pfizer 5.3.6 post-market data noted an 81% miscarriage rate.Said by BLiterally, the Pfizer 5.3.6 document is a real FDA submission that contains an 81% figure, which fact-checkers trace to miscalculated percentages from 32 pregnancy cases with most outcomes unreported. Read as a real 81% miscarriage rate, the claim is false: fact-checkers say no study found such a rate and the figure is a miscalculation. The claim also departs slightly from the passage, which says the figure was 'noted' in the post's own framing.Reported in the post, not stated as its own.Mixed60% confidence4 sourcesAug 11, 2026ERIC sent 30,000 invitations to register to vote to criminal invaders.Said by BThe figure is supported: about 30,000 noncitizens received voter-registration postcards in Colorado in 2022, and the error traced to a database glitch involving an ERIC-provided list. But the sources say the Colorado Secretary of State's office mailed the invitations, not ERIC, and nothing shows the recipients were 'criminal'. The claim also leaves out that the state called it a mistake and said noncitizens would not be allowed to register.Mixed45% confidence9 sourcesAug 11, 2026The state of Colorado obstructed inquiries into the 2020 election results.Said by BSources show Colorado did restrict some access: Secretary of State Griswold's 2021 emergency rules barred unauthorized third-party examination of election equipment, and the state prosecuted Tina Peters for breaching Mesa County's voting systems. But Colorado also ran official reviews of 2020 claims (a legislative audit committee hearing, a Mesa County DA review that rejected Peters' report, and bipartisan investigations finding no fraud), and no source describes the state as obstructing inquiry. The claim's 'obstruction' framing is the claimant's characterization, which the sources contest, and the post's own 'investigated us for asking questions' refers to Peters' prosecution, not a general block on inquiry.Mixed60% confidence2 sourcesAug 11, 2026Jenna Griswold had a campaign finance complaint filed against her while she was running for governor.Said by BSources confirm a campaign finance complaint was filed against Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold in January 2025, alleging she spent funds on a gubernatorial campaign without registering. The complaint was later dismissed for insufficient evidence, and the sources treat her gubernatorial candidacy as the complaint's allegation rather than an established fact, so the claim is only partly supported.Mixed55% confidence7 sourcesAug 11, 2026GoFundMe deplatformed people who were organizing to help victims of partisan political attacks.Said by BSources confirm GoFundMe removed politically charged fundraisers, including the Freedom Convoy 2022 campaign and Kyle Rittenhouse's legal defense fund, and that critics called this partisan. But GoFundMe cited terms-of-service violations, and no source establishes that those campaigners were 'victims of partisan political attacks' as the claim frames them, so the characterization is contested rather than documented.
