Previous Troubling Reports

Newsmax has a story referencing the United States borrowing money to fund illegal immigrants. This is a popular point of misinformation being spread by very conservative individuals.

This Breitbart article attempts to characterize Jack Smith's Capitol riot investigation as a takedown of a political movement (MAGA) when in reality it had to do with investigating who was involved with the insurrection on January 6, 2021.

President Trump spoke at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in South Korea and he claimed that Toyota was going to spend $10 Billion in the US and that they were going to build new manufacturing plants. But an executive from Toyota spoke out and said that they didn't specifically say that. So the misinformation in this article comes from what trump said and MSBNC reported on it.

This is troubling news to me because of the heavy bias seen within the article. While MSNBC is known for having a heavy left-leaning bias, the most biased articles are typically labeled as "opinion". However, this has not been the case with this specific article, which may mislead the public into thinking this is the consensus across the entire nation. There are significant groups of people within the United States that support the ongoing shutdown because they are against the democrats, and MSNBC's cemented left-wing perspective makes it seem like this is false. The writing also feels very colloquial, as if the author, Steve Benen, was talking to a friend and complaining. Phrases like "(Support for the reform law reached 66% in June, making it more than 20 points more popular than the president who hates it, and raising the question of whether the president is just jealous.)" and "but the president want Democrats, who have minimal power and even less influence in the nation’s capital, to fix the health care problem that Trump and his GOP allies have helped create." This may be misleading, even if there is no overt case of misinformation.

This Breitbart news article is misleading. When we analyze the story's title, it almost makes it seem like a fact that Judge Boasberg will be impeached or will be moving through the impeachment process. When the story is fact-checked, there were, in fact, articles of impeachment filed against Boasberg back in March of 2025, yet it is unlikely he will be impeached since there are not enough Republican votes in the House. Being that Breitbart is a medium right-wing news outlet, they can provide skewed and biased media, especially on this topic, as Boasberg was against Trump's policy on deporting undocumented immigrants.

There have been many discussions and finger-pointing at Democrats that have led to the current government shutdown. First and foremost, the title of the news article blames Democrats and states that they chose the shutdown to begin with. Throughout the media, there have been politicians such as JD Vance who have used false claims to pin blame on a political party. This being that radical leftist ideas are being spread, and "billions of dollars are going towards funding healthcare for undocumented immigrants, which is all untrue. Democrats have been withholding Senate votes due to expiring healthcare subsidies, and thus stopping the funding of the government. This can be seen in two ways: many people blamed both Democrats and Republicans. Although using false claims does harm this discourse.

The title of this news article hints at Trump deploying the military across the US and threatening to run for a third term. The article pulls quotes from a talk he gave on the USS George Washington in Japan. In this speech, he discusses how his deployment of the National Guard in Washington, DC, brought crime rates down to "almost nothing." He later stated that he will "clean out" more American cities and eliminate "the bad ones." Trump also claimed that Americans were no longer against seeing paramilitary forces deployed in their neighborhoods. While there are mixed feelings amongst American citizens regarding the National Guard, studies show that Republicans are far more in support than Democrats, so to claim that Americans as a whole are no longer against such forces being deployed is a false claim. Although crime numbers have dropped significantly since the deployment of the National Guard in D.C., and Trump has stated that he will be sending American troops to more cities across the U.S., to enforce his "crackdowns" on crime and immigration, the talk of a third term is unfounded and a false claim as well. Other news outlets have proven that discussion of a third term is out of line and not something that Trump is considering or is even legal for him to do.

The headline of this article is misleading because it insinuates that the author wants Trump to run for a third term even though that is not constitutionally possible. If you keep reading the article then you can see how the author explains that it is actually not possible for Trump to run for a third term but most people don't read far enough to see that and will just think that Trump is able to run again.

I found this article misleading because Mamdani's shedding light on the issues his aunt faced after 9/11 does not downplay those who died during 9/11, but rather only attempts to shed light on other issues that surrounded 9/11, like racism against Muslims and people from the Middle East.

Despite framing this as a 'clai,' Hamas has pretty clear reasoning for their incapacity to find the bodies: the levelling of Gaza making it extremely difficult to find the buried remains that Israel is demanding. This is further irresponsible given that Matzav has a different article in which they report on the Red Cross needing to help Hamas find the bodiesl
