True80% confidence5 sourcesAug 28, 2026Kate Conley is a 16-year military veteran.Said by CMultiple sources report that Cait Conley, the New York 17th District Democratic candidate, served 16 years as an active-duty Army officer, which matches the claim that she is a 16-year military veteran. The sources spell her first name 'Cait' rather than 'Kate', but the post and the sources refer to the same candidate, so the name difference does not change the referent.True85% confidence7 sourcesAug 28, 2026Mike Johnson is campaigning on the achievements of the Republican Congress.Multiple sources from September and October 2026 show Speaker Mike Johnson campaigning on the GOP Congress's record, including the Dallas midterm convention, a USA Today op-ed, and campaign stops. The claim faithfully reflects the passage, which says Johnson keeps attempting that achievements-based strategy; the post's further claim that Trump undercut it is not part of the extracted claim and is not graded here.True60% confidence1 sourceAug 28, 2026The Daily Blast podcast is taking a break and will return on Tuesday morning, September 8.Said by BThe claimed extraction matches the passage: the post announced a break and a return on Tuesday morning, September 8. The Megaphone feed supports this indirectly, showing reruns on Sept 1 and Sept 7 (labelled with earlier original air dates) followed by a new episode dated Tue, 08 Sep 2026 at 09:00 UTC. No source directly quotes the break announcement, so confidence is moderate.True90% confidence6 sourcesAug 28, 2026Donald Trump stated that his voters are angry at Republicans rather than at him.Multiple independent tier1/tier2 outlets (The Hill, Politico, USA Today, CNN, Time, Raw Story) report Trump's August 7, 2026 Punchbowl News interview saying voters are angry at Republicans but not at him, matching the claim. The claim's paraphrase faithfully reflects the post's passage; the post's characterization of this as 'recently declared' fits the August timeframe, and later CNN coverage (Aug 31) notes the statement was made, though it calls the argument wrong, which is an opinion on the argument rather than a dispute that he said it.True70% confidence8 sourcesAug 28, 2026Donald Trump shared a post from a MAGA influencer that criticized the Republican Party.Multiple outlets report that Trump reposted, with no comment of his own, a profane post by MAGA influencer Matt Van Swol that attacked congressional Republicans and the GOP's midterm prospects, which matches the claim. The claim is a faithful paraphrase of the passage, and the sources are mostly lower-credibility outlets rather than the tier1 sources, which do not address this specific repost.Can’t tell30% confidence4 sourcesAug 28, 2026The Republican Congress has codified over 125 executive orders.Said by BNo source checks whether the current Congress has codified over 125 executive orders. The claim faithfully reflects Mike Johnson's remark in the passage, and the only source repeating the 125 figure (the Connecticut News12 interview) is a non-independent echo of that claim. Snopes checks legislation counts (429 total laws against Johnson's claimed 800) but does not address executive-order codification, so it neither confirms nor refutes the claim.Reported in the post, not stated as its own.Can’t tell20% confidence12 sourcesAug 28, 2026Michael Oller is defending an accused child abuser.Said by CThe claim is extracted from a passage calling 'a Michael Oller' a mouthpiece 'busy defending a incredibly accused child abuser'; the sources include no coverage tying a Michael Oller to defending any child abuse defendant. The only Oller-related hits concern unrelated cases (an Oklahoma habeas petitioner, a Georgia child molestation appeal by a different Oller), so the claim cannot be graded against the sources.
