Deze twee foto's tonen Thomas Matthew Crooks.

Trump’s Shooter(Video) !!

L'homme qui a tiré sur Donald Trump n'est pas Thomas Matthew Crooks, mais Maxwell Yearick.
Publisher’s rating: Aucune preuve ne permet d'affirmer que Maxwell Yearick est l'homme qui a tiré sur Donald Trump. Selon le bureau fédéral d'investigation américain (FBI), l'auteur des faits est Thomas Matthew Crooks. La photo de Maxwell Yearick diffusée sur les réseaux sociaux ne montre aucune ressemblance avec le tireur.
MPs Jo Cox and Sir David Amess were murdered by far-right extremists.
Publisher’s rating: One of the two murdered MPs, Jo Cox, was murdered by someone who held far-right views. However the killer of the other MP, Sir David Amess, was a supporter of the Islamic State terror group.
Related reporting says Jo Cox was murdered in 2016 by a “right-wing extremist” and Sir David Amess was murdered by an “Islamist extremist” in 2021. This supports the publisher’s distinction, not the claim that both were murdered by far-right extremists.

The video does not show Thomas Matthew Crooks, the Trump rally shooter. The review identifies the person in the footage as an X user who pretended to be the shooter as a joke.
Toda minha solidariedade ao jovem que foi covardemente assassinado pela extrema direita nos EUA, durante um comício onde estava Donald Trump. Mesmo sem provas, executaram o jovem, sem legítima defesa. Iremos lutar a resistir ao avanço dessa corrente do mal”

Photo of the social media user who was arrested by Delhi police for making lewd comments on Smriti Singh, wife of late Captain Anshuman Singh
Publisher’s rating: FALSE
The photo shows Mohd Kasim, arrested on 02 July 2024 in connection with a snatching case, not the person accused of making lewd comments about Smriti Singh. The review says Kasim’s video was uploaded before the 05 July awards event, when the comments were made, so the arrest photo was unrelated to the controversy.

Es gab damals lediglich den Diebstahl einer Schere, allerdings in Reichenbach im sächsischen Vogtland. Die Polizeidirektion Görlitz führte nach eigenen Angaben in den vergangenen Tagen keinen derartigen Einsatz durch.
