    Fact Check

    Were fake ballots in Georgia, Florida and Arizona traced to a "Soros Compound" in Seattle, Washington?

  • Fake News: George Soros NOT Among 7 Dead In Thompson Amtrak Derailing

    Fact Check

    Was George Soros killed in an Amtrak train derailment near Thompson, California? No, that's not true; the news was made up by a liberal satire website that often gets its content copied by fake news websites from Macedonia, omitting the satire disclaimer. Even without that disclaimer the story contains so many obvious hints only a total idiot would believe it.…

    Fact Check

    Was $1.8 billion of George Soros' money just intercepted and is he going to prison for years over it? Not really, the headline is entirely made up, there is no truth to it at all.

    Fact Check

    Satire

    Folks, the vicious feud between President Trump and the fake news media has finally come to an end.

    Fact Check
