MBFC’s Daily Vetted Fact Checks for 07/28/2025

Fact Check Search

Media Bias Fact Check selects and publishes fact checks from around the world. We only utilize fact-checkers that are either a signatory of the International Fact-Checking Network (IFCN) or have been verified as credible by MBFC. Further, we review each fact check for accuracy before publishing. We fact-check the fact-checkers and let you know their bias. When appropriate, we explain the rating and/or offer our own rating if we disagree with the fact-checker. (D. Van Zandt)

Claim Codes: Red = Fact Check on a Right Claim, Blue = Fact Check on a Left Claim, Black = Not Political/Conspiracy/Pseudoscience/Other

Fact Checker bias rating Codes: Red = Right-Leaning, Green = Least Biased, Blue = Left-Leaning, Black = Unrated by MBFC

FALSE Claim by Donald Trump (R): “Crime in American Cities started to significantly rise when they went to CASHLESS BAIL. The WORST criminals are flooding our streets and endangering even our great law enforcement officers. It is a complete disaster, and must be ended, IMMEDIATELY!”

AP News rating: False (Data has not determined the impact of cashless bail on crime rates.)

FACT FOCUS: Trump claims cashless bail increases crime, but data is inconclusive

TRUE Claim via Social Media: The self-styled “QAnon Shaman” Jacob Angeli-Chansley wrote “F*ck Donald Trump” on X in July 2025.

Lead Stories rating: True (It is a real post. Social media users shared screenshots of the post, which Angeli-Chansley published on July 23. Angeli-Chansley’s X account was briefly deleted on July 24, before becoming available again.)

Fact Check: ‘QAnon Shaman’ Jacob Angeli-Chansley DID Post ‘Fuck Donald Trump’

BLATANT
LIE
Claim via Social Media: “The White House just announced that Trump only has four days left” because of his chronic venous insufficiency.

PolitiFact rating: Pants on Fire (Experts say the condition is common in older patients and not typically life-threatening, so there’s no reason to think someone with this diagnosis alone has only days left to live.)

‘4 days left’? TikToks exaggerate the danger of President Trump’s chronic venous insufficiency.

FALSE (International: Thailand): Video shows aerial jet combat between Thailand and Cambodia with one jet being shot down.

Lead Stories rating: False

Fact Check: Video Does NOT Show Fighter Jet Being Shot Down During Air Combat In Thailand-Cambodia Conflict
