154 claims
True65% confidence9 sourcesOct 22, 2026Donald Trump and the Department of Justice are censoring individuals who are critical of Israel's current policies.Said by AA federal judge's August 2026 ruling found that Trump administration laws used to cancel visas and start deportations of noncitizen students for pro-Palestinian advocacy and criticism of Israel were unconstitutional, supporting the claim's core that the government suppressed Israel criticism. The DOJ role rests mainly on advocacy-group reporting, and the ruling targeted State and DHS, so confidence is capped at 0.65. The claim describes an ongoing state as of 2026-10-22, and the sources cover that period.True65% confidence3 sourcesOct 22, 2026Brian Kilmeade and Lawrence Jones called JD Vance anti-Semitic or anti-Israel on a Fox morning show.Said by 3BSources from October 20, 2026 report that Brian Kilmeade and Lawrence Jones called Vance 'anti-Israel' on Fox & Friends, which satisfies the claim's 'anti-Semitic or anti-Israel' disjunction. No source shows them calling him anti-Semitic, and the post itself said it did not know if they had.Reported in the post, not stated as its own.True85% confidence5 sourcesOct 22, 2026The USDA is providing $8 billion to farmers to cover diesel costs because diesel prices are high due to the war with Iran started by Donald Trump.Said by AMultiple tier1 sources (Reuters, AP, The Hill) confirm the USDA/Trump administration's $8 billion Harvest Fuel Relief program for farmers to offset diesel costs, and the sources attribute high diesel prices to the Iran war that Trump launched in late February. The claim's 'started by Donald Trump' framing is supported by UPI and Herald Sun reporting that Trump launched strikes on Iran; the program's payment timing (post-election, likely year-end) is a peripheral detail that does not defeat the core assertion. The sources were published after the 2026-10-22 claim date but describe the program as already announced on October 19-20, so it was true as of the claim date.True70% confidence7 sourcesOct 22, 2026Tucker Carlson is a co-founder of Battalion Metals.Said by AMultiple sources describe Battalion Metals as co-founded by Tucker Carlson and dealer Christopher Olson, including the company's own site, and the claim matches the passage's wording. Most sources are unrated or come from the company or Carlson himself, so confidence is capped, and none of the tier1 fact-checkers directly address the claim.True60% confidence12 sourcesOct 22, 2026The Owen Report is broadcast live on weekdays from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m.Said by 3BMultiple podcast directory listings describe The Owen Report as a show airing 3-6pm CT, and one episode listing shows weekday episodes, which supports the claim's weekday 3-6 p.m. schedule. The listings are unrated aggregators with no authoritative source, and the claim omits the time zone, which the listings give as Central Time, a peripheral detail that does not contradict it.True60% confidence9 sourcesOct 22, 2026Fuel emergencies have been declared in 7 states.Primary government records confirm fuel or diesel emergencies in West Virginia (declared Oct 20, 2026), Kentucky (Oct 7 order, effective Oct 8) and Texas (Sept 28, renewed Oct 28), all before the Oct 22 posting. Secondary sources add Michigan, Nebraska, North Dakota, Indiana and others, so the claim is directionally supported, but the exact count of seven rests mainly on NaturalNews and social-media posts whose state lists differ, and no independent record tallies exactly seven.True95% confidence6 sourcesAug 14, 2026Pete Hegseth is currently serving as the head of the Department of Defense.Said by AMultiple tier1 and primary sources dated August through October 2026 show Pete Hegseth serving as Defense Secretary and leading the Pentagon, so the claim holds as of 2026-08-14 and still holds at the check date. The department was renamed the Department of War on Sept. 5, 2025 (per war.gov), which is a label difference rather than a contradiction. The extraction is faithful: the post refers to him as currently running the Pentagon.True60% confidence3 sourcesAug 14, 2026Mike Adams is interviewing Google whistleblower Zack Vorhees for the Decentralized TV channel.Said by ASources show Mike Adams hosting Zach Vorhies on Decentralized TV in several episodes, including an Aug 10, 2026 episode, which supports the claim's core assertion. No source directly confirms the specific Aug 14 interview or the 'Google whistleblower' description, and the sources come from the claimant's own outlets, so confidence is capped.True85% confidence5 sourcesAug 14, 2026A team of scientists is creating synthetic viruses or pathogenic proteins using AI.Said by AMultiple reliable outlets, including BBC and a Georgetown report on the Science study, confirm that Stanford and Arc Institute scientists used AI to design synthetic viruses (bacteriophages) published August 2026, so the claim's core is supported as of 2026-08-14. No source addresses the 'pathogenic proteins' part, and the viruses are described as not threatening to humans, which the claim does not dispute.Reported in the post, not stated as its own.True70% confidence7 sourcesAug 14, 2026A mother reported that her son on a U.S. Navy ship lost over 30 pounds in four months.Said by AMultiple outlets report that a mother told journalist Jim Acosta her son, a sailor on a Navy ship (USS Tripoli per the sources), lost more than 30 pounds in four months, so the act of reporting is established. The weight loss itself is not independently verified, and the outlets trace back largely to the same Acosta account; the claim's wording matches the passage faithfully.Reported in the post, not stated as its own.True90% confidence6 sourcesAug 14, 2026Royce White has identified as a woman for the purpose of playing basketball in the WNBA.Said by AMultiple outlets from August 2026 quote Royce White saying he identifies as a woman for the purpose of professional basketball and declaring for the WNBA Draft, so the claim holds as of 2026-08-14. The sources also note the WNBA later said he is not eligible, but that later development does not change whether he made the identification.Reported in the post, not stated as its own.True75% confidence4 sourcesAug 14, 2026Royce White stated that when he identifies as a woman, he has nine inches of a woman's clitoris.Said by ARoyce White's own X post, quoted in the Miami Herald and Bradenton reports, says 'My trans-affirming doctor told me I can think of my genitalia as 9 inches of clitoris.' The claim's wording ('he has nine inches') is a blunter paraphrase of that statement, and the sources show he said it, not that it is a literal anatomical fact. As of 2026-08-14 the statement was made and remained on the record.Reported in the post, not stated as its own.
