Vídeos com trecho recortado de uma coletiva de imprensa com o vice-presidente Geraldo Alckmin (PSB) em que ele diz que o governo trazia uma proposta que teria como princípio a “exclusão do Bolsa Família”. Sobre as imagens de um dos posts se lê “Desgoverno anuncia o fim do Bolsa Família. Tem que sobrar dinheiro pras viagens do casal e bancar os países falidos”. Em outro vídeo com a mesma entrevista é aplicada a mensagem “O governo já começa a falar do fim do Bolsa Família. Infelizmente quem mais vai sofrer é o povo do Nordeste”.

Publisher’s rating: Falso

The posts used clips from a press conference by Geraldo Alckmin to imply that the government planned to end Bolsa Família. The review identifies the footage as coming from a November 16, 2022 press conference, shortly after Alckmin, then vice-president-elect, delivered a draft constitutional amendment to congressional leaders. The proposal was later known as the Transition PEC. The key issue is what Alckmin meant when he referred to “exclusão do Bolsa Família.” The review says he was discussing removing the program’s expenses from the spending cap—not removing the program itself. That distinction matters because the budget for 2023 had no room for the expense, while continuing and expanding the program were campaign promises. Thus, the excerpted phrase was presented without the budgetary context that gave it its meaning. In the review’s account, the proposal concerned allowing Bolsa Família to continue by taking its costs outside the cap, rather than ending the program. The article also says the fact-checkers contacted those responsible for the posts but had received no response by publication.

Tijdens een toespraak van Joe Biden schreeuwt een groep 'fuck Joe Biden'.

Publisher’s rating: De audio is gemanipuleerd. In de originele video is geen scheldende menigte te horen of te zien. De beelden zijn van een toespraak van Joe Biden op 11 juli 2022 over een wet over wapengebruik en veiligheid. Biden werd wel onderbroken door een vader wiens zoon overleed tijdens een schietpartij op een school. De vader was boos omdat Biden niet genoeg zou doen om zulke schietpartijen te voorkomen.

Rahul Gandhi wore a coolie badge with the number 420

Publisher’s rating: FALSE

The claim concerns a photograph circulating on social media that appeared to show Rahul Gandhi wearing a railway porter’s badge numbered 420. FACTLY reports that it compared the viral image with an identical photograph on Gandhi’s official Instagram page. In that original image, the badge number is 756, not 420, indicating that the circulating version had been altered. The review places the photograph at Gandhi’s meeting with railway porters at Anand Vihar railway station in New Delhi on 21 September 2023. It says he wore a porter’s shirt and badge as a gesture of solidarity with the workers. The review also reports an interview with the porter who tied the badge on Gandhi; the porter confirmed the number was 756. Thus, the evidence supports that Gandhi wore a coolie badge, but not the number shown in the claim.

WEF roept op tot concentratiekampen voor vrije meningsuiting om ‘Terroristen van het eerste amendement’ op te sluiten.

Publisher’s rating: Nee, het WEF heeft niets gezegd over het inrichten van concentratiekampen. De bewering is gebaseerd op een fragment van een toespraak van WEF-oprichter Klaus Schwab, dat uit de context is gehaald en is aangevuld met verzinsels door een beruchte nepnieuwssite.
