Their rating
Donald Trump, former president

“What is the difference between this and Watergate, where operatives broke into the Democrat(ic) National Committee? Here, in reverse, Democrats broke into the home of the 45th President of the United States.”

PolitiFact rated this: One was legal, one wasn't

PolitiFact says: The Watergate was illegal, while the search of Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home would have received formal approval from a federal judge.

Kari Lake, Republican candidate for Arizona governor

“Arizona elections are corrupt”

PolitiFact rated this: 2020 election was secure

PolitiFact says: A review of ballots cast in Maricopa County confirmed that Joe Biden won, and courts rejected allegations of fraud or attempts to deny certification for Biden and only a few people have been charged with fraud.

Adam Laxalt, U.S. Senate candidate, R-Nev.

“A Democratic bill negotiated between Sens. Joe Manchin and Chuck Schumer would "increase taxes on millions of Americans across every income bracket.”

PolitiFact rated this: Half True

PolitiFact says: Every income group would lose ground from the bill’s tax changes, but they are likely to be outweighed by savings to families provided by other parts of the bill and that were not included in the analysis cited.
