58 checks for “Joe Biden”

Donald Trump, Former U.S. President

“President Joe Biden "sent comrade [Vice President] Kamala [Harris] to see [Russian President Vladimir] Putin in Russia three days before the attack" on Ukraine.”

FactCheck.org rated this: False

FactCheck.org says: In February 2022, Harris went to a security conference in Germany to primarily talk with European leaders about Russian aggression toward Ukraine. She didn’t go to Russia, and there is no evidence she met with Putin.

Joe Biden, U.S. president

“Hamas has already said publicly that they plan on attacking Israel again, like they did before, to where they were cutting babies’ heads off to burning women and children alive.”

Washington Post rated this: Caution warranted

Washington Post says: Caution is still warranted, especially at the presidential level, about statements that babies were beheaded. The available evidence does not need exaggeration.

Donald Trump, former president and 2024 presidential candidate

“It is also no coincidence that these charges against me came down the very same day evidence revealed Joe Biden took a $5 million bribe from Ukraine.”

PolitiFact rated this: Lacks evidence

PolitiFact says: There is no proof that the Trump indictment had anything to do with the timing of unproven allegations about a bribery scheme and Biden. The Biden allegations are three years old and come from an unverified tip.
