False80% confidence9 sourcesAug 25, 2026The Department of Homeland Security identified approximately 278,000 non-citizens registered to vote in federal elections across eight states.Said by AThe sources contradict the claim's eight-state scope: the DHS and White House figures cover four states (California, New Jersey, Nevada, Pennsylvania), not eight. Fact-checkers and watchdogs also found the 278,000 figure unsubstantiated, with DHS providing no disclosed methodology. The claim departs from the post, which only says 'I believe that was eight states'; the post itself is hedged, but the sources do not support the figure as stated.Reported in the post, not stated as its own.False60% confidence7 sourcesAug 25, 2026Democratic prosecutors have used their power to target Donald Trump and his associates.Said by AThe sources do not show Democratic prosecutors routinely targeting Trump; the documented pattern of prosecutions aimed at Trump's critics comes from the Trump-led Justice Department, and a PolitiFact fact-check found the Biden-era charges against Trump were tied to his conduct, not politics. The claim also shifts the post's 'Democrats' into 'Democratic prosecutors,' and no source states the party of the Fulton County prosecutor, Fani Willis.False60% confidence7 sourcesAug 25, 2026The Democratic Party rigged their primary elections in 2016, 2020, and 2024.Said by AThe claim that Democrats rigged their primaries in 2016, 2020, and 2024 is not supported as an act of rigging. The sources document establishment favoritism toward Clinton in 2016 (Brazile said the DNC "may have" rigged it through party finances, while calling it not criminal), but a Sanders adviser said the 2020 primary was "not currently rigged," and AFP found no evidence of irregularities in the 2024 New Hampshire primary.False85% confidence7 sourcesAug 25, 2026The Democratic Party rigs congressional elections by importing illegal aliens into blue states to gain unearned congressional seats.Said by AFact-checkers including Snopes, BBC, PolitiFact and AFP found that the claim that Democrats import illegal immigrants to rig congressional elections is unfounded, because noncitizens cannot lawfully vote in federal elections and naturalization takes years. The narrow kernel is that immigration, including of noncitizens counted in the census, affected apportionment (CIS estimated a net gain of 14 seats for blue states in 2020), but the sources do not show deliberate importation to gain seats or any election rigging. The claim is graded as of 2026-08-25; later sources (Oct 2026) still show noncitizen voting is rare and the apportionment dispute concerns a proposed 2030 census rule, which does not change the August verdict.False85% confidence5 sourcesAug 25, 2026Individuals are being paid to vote for Karen Bass on Skid Row.Said by AThe claim that people are being paid to vote for Karen Bass on Skid Row is contradicted by a tier1 fact-check and LA Times reporting: Lead Stories found the woman in the widely shared video was registered in Inglewood and did not return her ballot, and county election officials found no evidence she voted for Bass for $5. The extraction is faithful to the post's wording, and the allegation was already debunked months before the August 25, 2026 post.False85% confidence8 sourcesAug 25, 2026Democrats are paying homeless people on Skid Row for votes for Karen Bass.Said by AThe claim that Democrats paid Skid Row homeless people for votes for Karen Bass is debunked. Lead Stories, citing the LA County Registrar, found the woman in the viral video was registered in Inglewood and did not return her primary ballot, and the LA Times found no evidence of paid votes after interviewing election experts and 20 Skid Row residents. The claim also departs slightly from the passage, which says 'they' rather than Democrats, but the poster's intended meaning is graded as the claim.False70% confidence5 sourcesAug 25, 2026Democrats are rigging the Electoral College by bringing in illegal aliens.Said by AThe sources confirm that the Census counts illegal immigrants for apportionment, which is the kernel of truth, but fact-checkers and researchers found that the effect is minimal (about 0 to 1 House seat by one estimate) and that the claim of a deliberate Democratic scheme to rig the Electoral College is misleading. As of 2026-08-25 the claim is judged false; the sources do not show any change since then.Mixed60% confidence8 sourcesAug 25, 2026China purchases 90% of Iran's petroleum exports.Said by AThe 90% figure falls within the range of estimates in the sources: the U.S.-China Commission fact sheet, CNN's quotation of it, and Al Jazeera put China's share at roughly 90%, while Kpler and AP say more than 80% and Britannica says more than 90%. The claim also departs slightly from the passage, which says 90% of Iran's oil exports go to China, but the extraction is faithful in substance. The claim is true on a 90% reading but depends on which estimate is used.Minor detail. The sources confirm the claim; only a minor detail differs, such as a name's spelling, a title's wording or a rounding.Mixed60% confidence3 sourcesAug 25, 2026Ballots in Virginia contain four or five different languages.Said by AFairfax County's official ballot information says ballots are provided in English, Spanish, Vietnamese, and Korean, which matches the claim's four-language count for that county. But the Virginia Department of Elections says only four localities (Fairfax, Prince William, Manassas, Manassas Park) are required to provide non-English materials, so the claim is not accurate as a statewide statement, and the sources do not show any Virginia ballot with five languages. The claim was made on 2026-08-25, and no later development changes that reading.Mixed60% confidence7 sourcesAug 25, 2026The Trump administration has shut down all shipping going in and out of Iranian ports.Said by AThe sources support that the U.S. naval blockade, resumed July 14, 2026, restricts shipping to and from Iranian ports, and one outlet describes trade as 'effectively shut down.' However, the literal word 'all' is contradicted by reporting that Iranian crude loadings continued at reduced levels (about 260,000 bpd in August, down more than 80%) and by CENTCOM's count of vessels redirected rather than a total halt. The claim also appears on 2026-08-25, and the blockade was in force then.True90% confidence6 sourcesAug 25, 2026Stephanie White is the coach of the Indiana Fever.Said by AMultiple reliable sources (AP, Purdue, Reuters, IndyStar, Yahoo Sports) show Stephanie White was the Indiana Fever head coach as of August 2026, the date of the claim, and remained so afterward; Reuters specifically fact-checked and rejected a firing claim on 2026-08-18. The claim's wording matches the passage's own 'Indiana Fever head coach' reference.True60% confidence5 sourcesAug 25, 2026Democrats engage in ballot harvesting.Said by AMultiple sources state that ballot harvesting, meaning collecting and returning others' absentee ballots, has been practiced by Democrats and their allies, so the literal claim that Democrats engage in it is supported. The sources also show the practice is legal in many states and that Democrats are not shown to commit illegal fraud through it, so the post's implied wrongdoing is not established.
