86 claims
True80% confidence7 sourcesAug 10, 2026AIPAC opposed President Obama's Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).Said by BMultiple sources, including AIPAC's own statement, confirm AIPAC opposed Obama's 2015 JCPOA, with Wikipedia calling it a leading opponent and Haaretz calling it perhaps the most significant political avatar for opposition. The post's 'APAC' is evidently a typo for AIPAC, and the 'chief opposition' wording is supported by the Haaretz characterization.True97% confidence5 sourcesAug 10, 2026Mike Rogers served in Congress.Said by BMultiple primary and tier1 sources, including the U.S. House history office and AP, confirm Mike Rogers served in Congress from January 2001 to January 2015 (seven terms, representing Michigan's 8th district). The claim's past-tense statement is fully supported and the extraction faithfully reflects the post's reference to his time in Congress.True90% confidence7 sourcesAug 10, 2026Abdul El-Sayed is a doctor.El-Sayed holds an MD (doctor of medicine) from Columbia University and a DPhil in public health from Oxford, as PolitiFact, Bridge Michigan, Britannica and USA Today all report, so he is a doctor in the degree sense. He has never been licensed to practice medicine or completed a residency, so calling himself a 'physician' is contested, but that does not undo the 'doctor' claim; the claim matches the post's own 'Dr. Abdul El-Sayed' wording.True90% confidence4 sourcesAug 10, 2026Jennifer Welch authored a book titled Not Today, Fascists.Multiple sources show Jennifer Welch, co-host of the I've Had It podcast, wrote a book titled "Not Today, Fascists," so the claim is supported. The book's official release was October 6, 2026, after the August 10, 2026 post, but it was already available for pre-order then, which matches the post, and the authorship claim holds as of the posting date.Can’t tell40% confidence9 sourcesSep 20, 2026Donald Trump is planning a second insurrection attempt.The claim is a question the post raised ('Is Trump gearing up for...?'), and the sources do not establish any plan for a second insurrection attempt as of 2026-09-20. They contain commentary, warnings, and Trump's own non-denial about the Insurrection Act, which show speculation rather than documented planning.Can’t tell20% confidence1 sourceAug 27, 2026Thomas Massie stated that the GOP is offering voters mystery meat, 50-year mortgages, four-dollar gallons of gas, six-dollar gallons of diesel, more war, and liability-free pesticides.Said by ANone of the provided sources mention Massie making this remark about the GOP's offerings, so the claim can be neither confirmed nor refuted. The extracted wording is faithful to the passage, which is the claimant's own account of Massie's response, and that account cannot corroborate itself.Reported in the post, not stated as its own.Can’t tell60% confidence10 sourcesAug 27, 2026People are dying of measles due to deregulation.Said by ASources confirm that measles deaths have occurred in the US in 2026, with Pennsylvania reporting five and the CDC counting three as of late October. None of the sources connects those deaths to deregulation: they attribute the outbreak and deaths to declining vaccination rates and unvaccinated status, so the causal link in the claim is not addressed. The post itself juxtaposes deregulation with the measles remark rather than stating the causal link, so the claim adds a causal story the sources do not support.Can’t tell40% confidence9 sourcesAug 10, 2026Mike Rogers voted to raise prescription drug prices 19 times while in Congress.Said by BThe 19-vote figure appears only in El-Sayed's campaign statements, ads, and debate remarks, which repeat the claim without independent records behind it. The sources do not verify the count: the one fact-check on Rogers' drug-pricing votes (PolitiFact) counts five votes on Medicare negotiation, a narrower set, and does not refute the 19 total.Can’t tell30% confidence9 sourcesAug 10, 2026Melania Trump stated in a documentary that she does not share a bed with her husband.Said by ANo source shows Melania Trump saying in the documentary that she does not share a bed with her husband. The only documentary-specific source (Nickiswift, low credibility) reads a scene where the couple part ways as implying separate bedrooms, and the other bedroom reports date from 2017-2018 and rely on anonymous sources her representative denied. The post itself says she 'made sure the audience knew' rather than that she stated it, so the claim's 'stated' framing goes beyond the passage.Can’t tell35% confidence5 sourcesAug 10, 2026Melania Trump does not share a bed with Donald Trump.Said by AThe sources contain only tabloid speculation, anonymous insider claims, and a 2018 book's account, all of which point toward separate sleeping arrangements, but no authoritative source directly confirms or refutes the present-day claim as of 2026-08-10. Melania Trump's representative denied the 2017 Us Weekly claims, and the Benanti segment was satire, so the evidence is too thin and indirect to commit to a verdict.Can’t tell60% confidence6 sourcesAug 10, 2026Mike Rogers lost to Senator Slotkin in the August 2026 primary election.Said by BThe claim departs from the passage: the post says Rogers lost to Slotkin, but in the 2024 general election, not in the August 2026 primary. Sources show Rogers was unopposed in the August 4, 2026 Republican primary, so he did not lose that primary to Slotkin, but the verdict is unverifiable under the extraction-fidelity rule.Can’t tell20% confidence1 sourceAug 10, 2026The cost of zoo admission for two children and two adults was 132 dollars.Said by BThe claim describes a personal zoo visit by the poster on 2026-08-09 at an unnamed zoo, and no source covers that visit or its $132 total. The sources list admission prices at other zoos in later periods, none matching the poster's family or the claimed total, so the evidence neither confirms nor refutes the claim. The extraction is faithful to the post, which says 'a hundred and 32 dollars' for the kids, wife and speaker.
