668 claims
False90% confidence8 sourcesOct 1, 2026Vladimir Putin's popularity never went below 70%.Said by BThe claim that Putin's popularity never fell below 70% is contradicted by multiple sources. Reuters and AP report VTsIOM approval at 65.6% in April 2026, its lowest since before the Ukraine war, and Arab News and Calhoun report Levada approval at 62% in 2013, its lowest point at that time. The post's own timeframe (from the early 2000s through the war) therefore includes periods below 70%.False75% confidence3 sourcesOct 1, 2026The average Russian salary was $100 a year in the early 2000s.Said by BThe claim gets the unit and magnitude wrong. Sources put the average Russian salary in the early 2000s at roughly $89 to $143 per month (about $1,000 to $1,700 a year), not $100 a year. The post's figure appears to be a monthly number mislabeled as annual.False60% confidence4 sourcesOct 1, 2026Vladimir Putin abolished the production sharing agreement law in 2004.Said by BNo source says Putin abolished the production sharing agreement law in 2004. The closest record is a late-2003 Duma action that rescinded legislation allowing foreign oil companies to sign new PSAs, and Putin signed a 2003 law that strengthened PSA tax rules. The claim's date, actor, and scope do not match the record.False60% confidence3 sourcesOct 1, 2026The Russian national budget increased by 300 to 400% shortly after 2004.Said by BThe sources show Russia's federal revenue rising from about 19.6% to 20.4% of GDP in 2004 and to 23.6% in 2005, and the 2004 surplus rising from 1.7% to 4.4% of GDP. None of these figures approaches a 300-400% increase, so the claimed magnitude is grossly overstated even though budget revenue did grow.False85% confidence7 sourcesOct 1, 2026The Pandora Papers reported that Volodymyr Zelenskyy owns eight mansions around the world.Said by BThe Pandora Papers did not report that Zelenskyy owns eight mansions. Their reporting covered offshore companies linked to Zelenskyy and his associates and three London properties bought by associates, and fact-checkers including Reuters, Snopes, and USA Today found no evidence of the mansions or similar holdings alleged in the post.Reported in the post, not stated as its own.False60% confidence5 sourcesOct 1, 2026The fall of the Soviet Union led to tens of millions of deaths in Russia.Said by BThe sources document a severe excess-mortality crisis in Russia after the USSR's collapse, but the estimates they give for Russia run to roughly 3.4 to 7 million excess or premature deaths, not tens of millions. The only multi-tens-of-millions figure, 15.9 million, covers all former Soviet states through 2019, not Russia.False85% confidence9 sourcesOct 1, 2026The United States government created ISIS.Said by BThe claim that the US government created ISIS is contradicted by tier-1 fact-checkers and an expert analysis that reject the allegation as baseless, while noting that US policy in Iraq contributed to conditions that let ISIS's predecessor group grow. The extraction is faithful to the passage, which says 'The U.S. Created ISIS from the ground up.'False72% confidence7 sourcesOct 1, 2026The United States government organized prison breaks for ISIS members in Syria.Said by BNo source says the US organized prison breaks for ISIS in Syria. The 2019 AP fact check found no evidence that Kurdish forces deliberately opened prison doors, and the 2026 CENTCOM-era reporting shows US forces moving 5,700 ISIS prisoners to Iraq explicitly to prevent breakouts. The claim's origin in the post is a conspiracy allegation, and the sources show escapes from SDF-run prisons after the SDF withdrawal, not US-engineered releases.False60% confidence5 sourcesOct 1, 2026Jacob Schiff financed the Bolshevik Revolution with an amount equivalent to $2 billion today.Said by 10BThe sources do not support Schiff financing the Bolshevik Revolution at any scale near $2 billion today. The best-documented figure is a roughly $20 million loan alleged by Antony Sutton, and the sources describe Schiff as anti-Bolshevik and say the Bolshevik-financing story was antisemitic propaganda.Raised in the post as a question.False70% confidence8 sourcesOct 1, 2026The people who murdered Tsar Nicholas II were overwhelmingly Jewish.Said by BThe record does not support 'overwhelmingly Jewish': the leader, Yakov Yurovsky, was Jewish, but the other named executioners are not identified as Jewish, and sources describe the squad as mostly Latvian, Central European, and Russian. AP reporting characterizes the claims blaming Jews for the killing as conspiracy theories, so the broader allegation is contradicted, though the Jewish leader is a small true kernel.False85% confidence8 sourcesOct 1, 2026Russia has nationalized its central bank.Said by BThe claim that Russia has nationalized its central bank is contradicted by sources: the Bank of Russia was founded in 1860 as the State Bank and its nationalization/state monopoly dates to 1917, long before the 2026 post; PolitiFact and Lead Stories rated similar claims false, and the Bank of Russia itself is a state institution. The extracted claim also drops the post's framing that this happens 'usually indirectly in their dealings with China,' and the post's own dollarization/nationalization remark is hyperbolic commentary not a checkable act in the sources.False90% confidence7 sourcesOct 1, 2026The pogroms in late Imperial Russia are a myth.Said by BThe claim that late Imperial Russian pogroms are a myth is contradicted by multiple scholarly sources, which document more than 250 anti-Jewish pogroms in 1881–1884 alone, plus later waves in 1903–1906 and 1917–1921, with recorded casualties and property destruction. The claim departs from none of the post's wording, and the Klier paper cited in the sources challenges only the historiography of Jewish leadership during the pogroms, not whether they occurred.
