True90% confidence4 sourcesNov 12, 2026Mike Bayham was a Louisiana State Representative.Multiple sources, including the Louisiana House of Representatives member page and news reports, establish that Mike Bayham was a Louisiana State Representative (District 103, St. Bernard Parish, elected 2023). The claim uses past tense, consistent with the reported death on 2026-11-12; as of the claim date he held the seat, and the later death does not make the claim false.True92% confidence8 sourcesNov 12, 2026Mike Bayham died.Multiple independent outlets (Shreveport Times, WGNO, News From The States, Fox 8, WWL, WBRZ, KLFY, Bossier Press-Tribune) report that Louisiana State Rep. Mike Bayham died on November 12, 2026, citing family, his office, and parish officials; the claim matches the post's referent (Speaker Johnson's statement on Rep.

Thomas Massie filed/reintroduced articles of impeachment against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth in November 2026, with CNN and Snopes confirming the report.
