MBFC’s Daily Vetted Fact Checks for 11/09/2025 (Weekend Edition)

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)

BLATANT
LIE
Claim via Social Media: New York Stock Exchange is moving to Texas in reaction to Mamdani election.

Lead Stories rating: False (No Such Plan)

Fact Check: NYSE Did NOT Announce It Is Fleeing Mamdani’s NYC, Relocating From Wall Street To Texas — All-Electronic Dallas Branch Was Announced Eight Months Before Election Day

TRUE Claim via Social Media: Steve Bannon, an ally of U.S. President Donald Trump, said, “If we [conservatives] lose the midterms and we lose 2028, some in this room are going to prison, myself included.”

BLATANT
LIE
Claim by Nancy Mace (R): New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani “is bringing Sharia law to America.”

PolitiFact rating: Pants on Fire (Zohran Mamdani has never said he seeks to implement Shariah in New York City, or anywhere in the U.S. Mamdani’s support for gay rights and decriminalizing sex work are the “antithesis” of Shariah. No one can implement Shariah in the United States, given legal protections under the Constitution.)

No, Zohran Mamdani is not ‘bringing Sharia law to America’

FALSE (International: India): India has recently pulled out 500 billion euros from the United Kingdom’s economy.

The Quint rating: False

No, India Hasn’t Pulled Out 500 Billion Euros From United Kingdom’s Economy
