MBFC’s Daily Vetted Fact Checks for 11/30/2025 (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)

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

MISLEADING Claim by President Donald Trump (R): “I settled eight wars in eight months.”

PolitiFact Rating: Exaggerated (Trump helped broker several ceasefires, including between Israel and Iran, India and Pakistan, and Armenia and Azerbaijan, but most were temporary. Violence persisted elsewhere, and some disputes, like Egypt and Ethiopia’s, were diplomatic rather than wars.)

Donald Trump Rating

TRUE Claim via Social Media: In November 2025, Walmart.com sold a shirt containing a fascist salute pictured over a raised fist and the caption “paper beats rock.”

Snopes rating: True (Multiple third-party sellers listed the shirt, which was a clear violation of Walmart’s prohibited products policy, on the retailer’s website through the Walmart Marketplace program. Social media users quickly started a campaign to report the shirt’s listings. Walmart has since removed listings of the shirt.)

Shirt with Nazi salute was briefly sold on Walmart’s website

BLATANT
LIE
Claim via Social Media: Video of Michelle Wu calling Donald Trump an “asshole” in a high pitched voice is real.

Fact Check: Video Of Michelle Wu Calling Trump An ‘Asshole’ In A High Pitched Voice Is NOT Authentic — Digital Manipulation

FALSE (International: Philippines): Senate President Vicente Sotto III has been ousted as the Chamber’s leader.

VERA Files rating: False

FACT CHECK: Sotto NOT ousted as Senate president
