The claim
Never forget…
The Biden Administration did not let Elon use SpaceX to save astronauts who had been stranded for 9 months before the 2024 election because it could possibly help Trump politically.
Think about that.
Human beings stranded in space.
That’s the Left.
The finding
False
95% Confident
False. NASA assigned the astronauts to return on a SpaceX mission in August 2024, which launched before the election. The schedule was based on safety and logistics, not politics. The astronauts returned in March 2025 after a roughly nine-month stay.

The finding
Misleading
78% Confident
Misleading. The $200 billion fraud estimate covers both PPP and EIDL programs combined, not PPP alone. Fraudulent PPP loans are estimated at roughly $64 billion. The figure was publicly reported by the independent SBA Inspector General, not concealed by the Biden administration.
The claim
The former attorney general announced that she was diagnosed with cancer shortly after her departure from the DOJ in April.
The finding
True
95% Confident
True. Former Attorney General Pam Bondi was diagnosed with thyroid cancer after leaving the Department of Justice in April 2026. She was fired on April 2, and her diagnosis was publicly reported in late May 2026.
The claim
Americans' savings rate falls to lowest level since 2022 as inflation outpaces paychecks (Kamaron McNair/CNBC)
Main Link | memeorandum Permalink
The finding
True
92% Confident
True. This links to a real CNBC article reporting Bureau of Economic Analysis data. The U.S. personal savings rate fell to 2.6% in April 2026, the lowest since June 2022. The article notes spending is growing faster than income as inflation pressures household budgets.
The claim
-Gas prices skyrocketed
-Grocery prices increased
-Mortgage rates surged
What are trump and his rubber stamp Republicans focused on? Putting trump’s face on a $250 bill.
November is coming.
The finding
Mostly True
85% Confident
Mostly True. Gas prices are up 44 percent year over year and groceries cost 3 to 5 percent more. Mortgage rates are high at 6.6 percent but have stabilized. Lawmakers proposed a $250 bill featuring Trump, but it is only a proposal and has not been enacted.
The claim
FACT FOCUS: Trump says Obama and Biden spent 'hundreds of millions' on reflecting pool. They did not
apnews.com/article/trum...
The finding
True
92% Confident
True. Trump falsely claimed past administrations spent hundreds of millions on the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. The Obama administration spent about $34 million on a 2010 to 2012 renovation, and the Biden administration did not fund a major project. The actual cost is far below his claim.
The claim
Obama stock trades as president: 0. Biden stock trades as president: 0. Trump stock trades in first quarter of 2026 alone: 3,600+. You guys got conned… just admit it.
The finding
True
92% Confident
True. Financial disclosures confirm neither Obama nor Biden actively traded individual stocks during their presidencies. President Trump's Q1 2026 ethics filing disclosed over 3,600 trades. The "conned" remark is subjective opinion.
The claim
Mifepristone is safe and effective.
Mifepristone is safe and effective.
Mifepristone is safe and effective.
Mifepristone is safe and effective.
The finding
True
95% Confident
True. Mifepristone has been FDA-approved since 2000. Decades of clinical data confirm it is safe and effective. Major medical groups like the AMA and ACOG agree its safety profile is comparable to common medications like ibuprofen. Serious side effects are extremely rare.
The claim
Miller lies. SNAP requires verification of household members' identities through birth certificates, school records or other documentary proof. It does not take just an applicant's word for it. Sheesh.
The finding
Mostly True
78% Confident
True. Federal SNAP rules require states to verify household members before approving benefits. Applicants must provide documents like birth certificates, school records, or IDs. While states offer flexibility if paperwork is missing, SNAP does not just take an applicant's word for it.
The claim
none of this matters, by the way. CBS paid to make the Colbert show, Byron Allen pays to rent the air time. CBS just makes easy money for no work here
The finding
Mostly True
82% Confident
Mostly True. Byron Allen pays CBS for the airtime in a time buy deal, and CBS funded Colbert's production. The claim that CBS does no work is an oversimplification. The network still manages broadcast transmission, scheduling, and affiliate coordination.
The claim
Narrator: Dana White has spoken at the 2016, 2020 and 2024 Republican National Conventions.
The finding
True
95% Confident
True. Dana White spoke at the 2016, 2020, and 2024 Republican National Conventions. He delivered remarks in 2016 and 2020, and introduced Donald Trump on the final night of the 2024 convention. These appearances are well documented by major news outlets and official convention records.
The claim
NEW AD: Ken Paxton just released a pedophile back on our streets.
Adam Hoffman abused a little boy for 3 years. He should have faced life in prison — but Ken Paxton and his wealthy lawyer friends let Hoffman off the hook.
Ken Paxton’s corruption is hurting Texas.
The finding
Mostly True
78% Confident
Mostly True. Adam Hoffman sexually abused a child for three years, a crime carrying a potential life sentence. Ken Paxton's office offered a plea deal, but a judge rejected the initial one-day offer and imposed 60 days in jail. The claim about Paxton's wealthy friends is unsubstantiated.
The claim
She’s making this up. The median American household has ~$8k in the bank. Sorry but that’s just factual reality
The finding
True
90% Confident
True. Federal Reserve data shows the median U.S. household holds about $8,000 in transaction accounts like checking and savings. Additionally, recent surveys indicate roughly 59% of Americans lack the savings to cover a $1,000 emergency expense.
The claim
Trump’s DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin just announced that they are “drawing up plans” to block all international flights into blue cities like New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago.
thehill.com/homenews/adm...
The finding
Mostly True
85% Confident
Mostly True. DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin announced plans to halt customs processing for international flights at airports in sanctuary cities like New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago. The post says "block all flights," but the plan targets processing, which would effectively stop most arrivals.
The claim
If signed by Gov. Mike Dunleavy, House Bill 302 would increase the maximum weekly benefit by $100 to $470.
The finding
True
95% Confident
True. Alaska House Bill 302, passed by the state legislature in late May 2026, would raise the maximum weekly unemployment benefit from $370 to $470. The bill currently awaits Governor Mike Dunleavy's signature to become law.
The claim
The Trump administration launched an app for managing child investment accounts, according to Treasury Department officials, which will start being seeded with $1,000 from the federal government July 4.
The finding
True
92% Confident
True. The Treasury Department launched the Trump Accounts app on May 28, 2026. Eligible children born between 2025 and 2028 will receive a $1,000 federal seed deposit starting July 4, 2026. The post accurately reflects the program details.
The claim
Trump is stealing your entry fees to national parks.
The finding
Mostly True
85% Confident
Misleading. While at least $67 million in park entrance fees is funding D.C. beautification, the spending is legal. A 2004 law allows up to 20 percent of fee revenue to fund maintenance at sites that do not charge entry fees, like the National Mall.
The claim
Authorities have detained a pregnant woman and her 4-year-old son at Dulles International Airport for over a week, after the pair arrived from Ghana on a tourist visa seeking medical treatment and were then taken into custody, their lawyers allege.
The finding
True
95% Confident
True. Multiple reputable sources, including The Washington Post and the ACLU of Virginia, confirm that a pregnant Ghanaian woman and her 4-year-old son were detained at Dulles International Airport for over a week after arriving on tourist visas to seek medical care for the child.
The claim
This is why Republicans are working so hard to distract people with nonsense like whether Talarico is a vegan. They have nothing else to sell other than new wars, a slush fund for criminals, a ballroom, and a lousy economy.
The finding
Mostly True
90% Confident
Mostly true. The economic data cited matches official Bureau of Economic Analysis figures, showing April 2026 headline PCE inflation at 3.8% and core PCE at 3.3%. The remaining text is partisan political opinion and rhetorical framing rather than verifiable facts.
The claim
Newsom wants California to impose 100% tax on payments from Trump’s ‘slush fund’
The finding
True
92% Confident
True. On May 27, 2026, Governor Gavin Newsom announced California will impose a 100% tax on any state residents who receive payouts from a Trump administration settlement fund. The 'slush fund' label is political framing. The proposal's legal feasibility remains untested.
