PolitiFact is a United States fact-checking site run by the Poynter Institute. It rates claims by politicians and viral posts on its Truth-O-Meter, from True to Pants on Fire.
PolitiFact says: Paul’s suggestion that “data dumps” could reflect fraud in the presidential election is not supported by evidence.
PolitiFact says: Yes, Americans pay more for remdesivir. No, Trump administration isn’t to blame for that
PolitiFact says: Warnock defended Wright’s “truth telling” about that mistreatment and said many people confused Black preachers’ moral outrage with hatred. A divinity school, not Warnock, honored Wright for his career in ministry.
PolitiFact says: The plan offers no details on how protections for people with preexisting health conditions would be ensured. Two provisions indicate protections will be less than those provided by the Affordable Care Act, experts say.
PolitiFact says: Biden got slightly more than 80 million votes.
PolitiFact says: Article claims MLW initials repeated on many ballots are evidence of "fake votes." But those are just the the initials of the Madison clerk who issued absentee ballots.
PolitiFact says: Kyle Rittenhouse said he bought his gun with "$1,200 from the coronavirus Illinois unemployment," which muddles unemployment with the standalone stimulus checks. He apparently used boosted unemployment funds on the AR-15
PolitiFact says: The Constitution doesn’t explicitly bar presidents from pardoning themselves. While legal arguments can be made against it, no one really knows if a self-pardon would be upheld by the courts.
PolitiFact says: The clip was altered and was produced for a “Jimmy Kimmel Live” segment. The original video shows Trump speaking about the impeachment inquiry in 2019.
PolitiFact says: Zero evidence of large scale double voting, nor are there more votes than registered voters.
PolitiFact says: This is wrong. Soros has not been arrested. The indictment cited in the story was forged to include his name and was created from a real indictment involving Russian hackers.
PolitiFact says: Perdue is wrong about most of the positions that he says Ossoff holds. Even if Perdue’s evidence were accurate, it doesn’t square with what socialism is.
PolitiFact says: Perdue hasn’t made any specific comments about Biden or wanting to see him fail. The Perdue statements cited by Ossoff’s campaign are about blocking the Democratic agenda, which Perdue has called extreme.
