47 claims
Mixed60% confidence8 sourcesAug 3, 2026Impeachment of a president requires a two-thirds majority vote in the Senate.Said by AThe sources consistently establish that a two-thirds vote of the Senate is required to convict and remove a president, so the post's intended point holds. Read literally, though, the claim says impeachment itself requires two-thirds in the Senate, but the sources say the House impeaches by simple majority and the two-thirds requirement applies only to Senate conviction. The extraction matches the passage's wording, and the post's own reference to a two-thirds majority concerns removal.True95% confidence8 sourcesAug 3, 2026Charlie Kirk was assassinated.Multiple reliable sources (AP via Twin Cities/AP, USA Today, Wikipedia, Britannica, WSET) report that Charlie Kirk was shot and killed at Utah Valley University on September 10, 2025, described as an assassination, with a suspect charged with aggravated murder who has pleaded not guilty. The claim is accurate as stated; the 'assassination' label reflects the AP and Governor Cox's 'political assassination' characterization and the family's wrongful death framing, and the suspect's guilt remains an unproven allegation, which does not affect the claim that the killing was an assassination.True60% confidence4 sourcesAug 3, 2026Stew Peters launched his podcast in 2020.Said by ATwo sources support the 2020 launch: Wikipedia (snapshot from 2021) says Peters launched the show as a podcast in 2020, and Podchaser says the show's first episode was Dec 28, 2020. A Listen Notes listing dates its episodes from March 2021, which is a database start date rather than a launch statement, so it does not clearly contradict the claim. The claim's wording matches the passage, and the sources are moderate-credibility, so confidence is capped.True60% confidence7 sourcesAug 3, 2026Mitch Snow reported seeing Erica Kirk in the lobby of the Cannon Wooden and Suites on September 8th.Said by BMultiple sources report that Mitch Snow claimed he saw Erika Kirk in a hotel lobby at Fort Huachuca on September 8, so the claim that he reported this is supported. The sources name the hotel as the Candlewood Inn and Suites, not 'Cannon Wooden and Suites', which appears to be a transcription error in the post. Whether the sighting actually occurred is disputed and is not what the claim asserts.Reported in the post, not stated as its own.True80% confidence5 sourcesAug 3, 2026Jacob Reses is the Chief of Staff for the Vice President.Said by BAs of 2026-08-03, Jacob Reses (spelled 'Reses' in the claim; the post spelled it R-E-S-E-S) was Vice President JD Vance's Chief of Staff. Bloomberg Government reported on 2026-06-11 that he would leave by the end of summer, and LegiStorm lists his VP-office tenure as running through August 2026, so the claim was true on the date it was made, though he has since departed. The claim's present tense is accurate only for that date. The extraction matches the passage, since the post names the same person and role.True55% confidence11 sourcesAug 3, 2026Mitch Snow was present at Fort Huachuca.Said by BEvery source that addresses Snow's whereabouts places him at Fort Huachuca on September 9, 2025, and the Substack review says his encounter with military police was confirmed. Most of this rests on Snow's own account and low-credibility commentary, and no authoritative fact-checker addressed the question, so confidence is moderate.True85% confidence6 sourcesAug 3, 2026The Heritage Foundation is the author of the 34-page initiative Project Esther.Said by BThe Heritage Foundation is the publisher and originator of Project Esther, per Snopes, Heritage's own website, and Wikipedia. The one divergence is the page count: an archived copy describes it as a 33-page blueprint, against the post's 34 pages, which is close enough to be a pagination or counting difference rather than a contradiction.True60% confidence5 sourcesAug 3, 2026Google has hired employees from the Israeli intelligence unit Unit 8200 and the CIA.Said by AMultiple sources report that Google employs former Unit 8200 veterans (at least 99 identified via LinkedIn profiles) and former CIA employees across many departments, so the core assertion holds on the date of the post. Nearly all of the reporting traces back to one MintPress News investigation from 2022, so confidence is limited.True65% confidence5 sourcesAug 3, 2026Ronald Reagan called the 1982 Israeli invasion of Lebanon a holocaust.Said by AMultiple sources, including a Reagan diary account (Reuters, NBC News), a UPI report of Begin's account, and a Foreign Affairs piece quoting Reagan, confirm that Reagan used the word 'holocaust' about Israel's 1982 military campaign in Lebanon. The sources tie the remark specifically to the August 1982 bombardment of west Beirut rather than to the invasion as a whole, a minor scope imprecision that does not reverse the claim.Reported in the post, not stated as its own.True60% confidence5 sourcesAug 3, 2026Ashkenazi Jews running the Israeli government are from Eastern Europe.Said by 2CSources on the 2026 election identify Netanyahu, who led the government as of the claim date, as Ashkenazi with Polish-Lithuanian roots, and they describe Ashkenazi as Jews of European, largely Eastern European, descent. No source contradicts the claim, but none lists the full current cabinet's origins, and 'from Eastern Europe' is supported mainly through ancestry rather than birthplace. The extraction matches the post's wording.True68% confidence5 sourcesAug 3, 2026There are bounties on the life of Mohammad Marandi.Said by 2DMultiple sources from March through May 2026 report bounties on Professor Mohammad Marandi's life, including a $1M bounty flagged as still live in March and a crowdfunded bounty reported by EDMO in May. No source directly confirms the bounties were still active on 2026-08-03, and the post's spelling "Morandi" is treated as a reference to Marandi, which the extraction resolved correctly.True90% confidence7 sourcesAug 3, 2026Alex Jones is calling for the Twenty-Fifth Amendment and impeachment against President Trump.Multiple outlets, including The Hill (tier1), report that Alex Jones called for Trump's impeachment and invoked the 25th Amendment in a live broadcast on July 28, 2026, before the 2026-08-03 post. The claim matches the reported statements and the post's own wording, and no source disputes it.
