False60% confidence6 sourcesJul 27, 2026U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Wallace stated that the military has everything it needs to conduct the campaign effectively.Said by CThe quoted statement is confirmed: the sources show U.S. Ambassador to the UN Mike Waltz said on Meet the Press (July 26, 2026) that the military has everything it needs to conduct the campaign as effectively as it needs to be. The claim names the speaker as 'Mike Wallace,' however, and the sources identify the ambassador as Mike Waltz, so the wrong name changes who the claim is about and the claim is false as stated.False60% confidence7 sourcesJul 27, 2026Full-scale hostilities between the U.S. and Iran began in March 2026.Said by FThe claim that full-scale hostilities began in March 2026 is contradicted by sources that date the start of the war and its major combat operations to February 28, 2026. The extraction faithfully reflects the post's 'beginning of this war in March' wording, but March 1 and later are the intensification period, not the start.Minor detail. The sources confirm the claim; only a minor detail differs, such as a name's spelling, a title's wording or a rounding.False70% confidence8 sourcesJul 27, 2026Carrie Lake lost her nomination for governor.Said by GThe sources show Kari Lake (the likely referent of 'Carrie Lake') won the 2022 Republican primary for Arizona governor, so she did not lose her nomination for governor. She lost the November 2022 general election to Katie Hobbs and later lost the 2024 Senate race, which the post's own wording ('got her nomination... and she lost') appears to refer to.False70% confidence9 sourcesJul 27, 2026There are 278,000 non-citizen aliens on voter rolls in four states.The claim that 278,000 noncitizens are on voter rolls in four states misstates the DHS figure, which was over 250,000 for four states (California, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Nevada), with 278,000 being the broader total. Authoritative fact-checkers and reporters (FactCheck.org, Reuters, Snopes, and state officials) found the figure unsupported or overstated, and DHS has not disclosed its methodology.False70% confidence8 sourcesJul 27, 2026The Chinese government operated an election influence campaign involving 20,000 fake driver's licenses.Said by 2BThe roughly 20,000 fake driver's licenses were really seized at Chicago O'Hare in 2020, but authoritative fact-checkers examined that seizure and found no evidence it was tied to voter fraud or a Chinese election influence campaign. The 2025 FBI documents allege a Chinese plot to use such licenses, but they rest on an unverified confidential source, and a 2026 Brennan Center review found no evidence of China interfering in the 2020 federal elections.False85% confidence7 sourcesJul 27, 2026There are 250,000 or 70,000 foreign nationals on voter rolls across four states.Said by EThe claim that 250,000 (or 70,000) foreign nationals are on voter rolls across four states is contradicted by Snopes, which rated DHS's 250K noncitizen-registration claim False. Reuters, NPR, CBS and Votebeat report that DHS offered no methodology or evidence, and officials in the four states called the numbers speculative or unsupported. The Snopes rating was published July 28, one day after the July 27 post, but it examines the same figure. The 70,000 figure is not addressed by any source.False60% confidence6 sourcesJul 27, 2026Jon Ossoff's opponent, David Perdue, had a 78,000 vote margin over Ossoff with 13 precincts left to report in Fulton County in the November 2020 election.Said by 2BThe sources do not show a 78,000-vote Perdue margin over Ossoff in Fulton County with 13 precincts left. Fulton's official report shows Ossoff ahead of Perdue by about 217,000 votes, and the AJC's statewide snapshot shows Perdue about 200,500 ahead, not 78,000. The extracted claim also drops the 'above the runoff threshold' framing of the original post, though the figure itself is unsupported either way.False85% confidence8 sourcesJul 27, 2026The 2020 United States Senate election in Georgia involving John Ossoff was stolen.Said by 3CThe claim that Ossoff's Georgia Senate election was stolen is an allegation that authoritative sources dismiss: Georgia's Secretary of State found no widespread fraud, and AFP fact-checked fraud claims about the January 2021 runoff Ossoff won as false. The extraction's '2020 ... election' label fits the Georgia Senate race the post meant, though the runoff was held in January 2021.Mixed60% confidence7 sourcesOct 28, 2026Real Clear Politics polling for the Ohio Senate race puts Jared Brown at 48% and John Husted at 45%.Said by CThe RealClearPolitics average figures match the sources: a RealClearPolling average of Brown 48.2% and Husted 44.9% as of October 27, 2026, consistent with the claim's 48% and 45%. However, the Democratic candidate is Sherrod Brown, not 'Jared Brown' as the claim (and the passage) says, and the Republican is Jon Husted, so the claim misidentifies one candidate's name, which the sources contradict.Minor detail. The sources confirm the claim; only a minor detail differs, such as a name's spelling, a title's wording or a rounding.Reported in the post, not stated as its own.Mixed60% confidence7 sourcesOct 28, 2026Core inflation was 2.6%.Said by 2CCore CPI inflation was 2.6% over the 12 months through September 2026, as reported before the 2026-10-28 post, so the figure holds under the CPI measure. However, the Fed's preferred core PCE measure was about 3.0% in August and forecast at 3.1% for September, so the claim fails under that measure; the claim does not specify which measure is meant. The post's own context concerns the Fed, which tracks PCE, so the claim is measure-dependent.Mixed60% confidence7 sourcesOct 28, 2026Arab parties currently hold 18 seats in the Knesset.Said by 2BThe 18-seat figure matches the October 27 exit-poll forecast (source 7), but the October 28 tallies in sources 1 and 6 already showed 19 seats for Arab parties, and final results were 19 (sources 0, 2, 4). The claim also says Arab parties 'currently hold' 18 seats, yet the outgoing Knesset had about 10 Arab seats and the new seats were not yet allocated as of October 28, so the claim departs from the record on both figure and framing.Mixed45% confidence4 sourcesOct 28, 2026In the 2018 Texas election, 8% of the Republican base shifted their vote to Beto O'Rourke.Said by 3BThe claim's 8% figure is close to, but not the same measure as, the sources' numbers. AP VoteCast exit polling put O'Rourke's share of Republican voters at about 6%, while a Texas Politics analysis reports that no more than 8% of Republicans held a favorable view of O'Rourke in any 2018 poll. Neither source measures a 'shift' of Republican votes directly, so the claim is only loosely supported.
