The clip sparked debate on social media about whether the subtitles of the video are legitimate. The video was first shared by TikTok user @tabitharetals, whose profile description says “A conservative mama. Embracing #Cult45. just for fun tik tok.” The TikTok clip was also shared on Twitter by user @Godwins123456 who tweeted: “Even this short/fat dictator (remember when Trump said, ‘I would never call him short and fat) knows Biden better than… 80 million people (give me a break)....

In spite of sustained attacks on critical infrastructure and threats of nuclear escalation, Kyiv forces continue to deliver painful blows to President Vladimir Putin’s army, quickly regaining control of many areas that Russia recently attempted to illegally annex. Now, claims on social media suggest that Ukraine’s advances have amounted to half of the gains that Russia made since February. The Claim A tweet posted on November 7, 2022, states that Ukraine has “taken back 50% of what Russians newly occupied in 2022 and 37% of what Russia has taken since 2014....

Wisconsin’s Republican Senator Ron Johnson has been a vocal figure in the vaccine debate, and while his spokesperson has previously said he is “pro-vaccine,” Johnson himself has repeatedly criticized what he has called “Biden’s divisive and freedom-robbing vaccine mandate.” The Claim In two separate interviews with Fox News, Johnson has claimed that there is “no approved vaccine” in the U.S. and that the ones that are available are under emergency use authorizations (EUA)....

The Moai statues consist of large heads and smaller bodies, which are often buried beneath the ground from the neck down. The statues were built in approximately 1400 - 1650 A.D. by the natives of this island, known as Rapa Nui, according to the official Easter Island travel guide, allegedly in honor of the chieftain or other important people who had passed away. The tallest standing statue on Easter Island currently is only 33 feet tall....

Flomax was granted approval by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1997. In 2009, the drug manufacturer Boehringer Ingelheim lost its patent for the drug molecule, and, as a result, there are numerous low-cost generics now available. This article covers how Flomax works, what the dosage is, how long it takes to work, and common side effects. How Does Flomax Work? Flomax belongs to a class of medications known as alpha-adrenergic blockers that work by relaxing both the bladder neck muscles and the muscle of the prostate gland itself....

The old salons were stuffy and dull but boasted the occasional masterpiece. This newest salon sports the occasional witty work (like Janine Antoni’s airlessly glitzy mock boutique of lipstick and chocolate, “Gnaw”) but is mostly preachy and glum. At the reception counter, the customary admission buttons have been replaced by ones bearing fragments of “I can’t imagine ever wanting to be white” from Daniel J. Martinez’s conceptual art work, “Museum Tags....

Atlanta now must survive the 2022 season without Ridley. However, that is apparently something they were planning on doing regardless. IYER: Why Roger Goodell got Calvin Ridley’s gambling suspension right As Fox Sports’ Jay Glazer reported on NBC Sports Philadelphia’s “Takeoff” podcast, the Falcons had a deal in place to send Ridley to the Eagles. That said, Atlanta “backed out at the last second,” per Glazer, after learning of Ridley’s year-long suspension....

This is not the first time Ninja has been given a skin in one of the video games he plays, as the popular streamer was given a special design in Fortnite early this year. Part of the Fortnite Icon Series, his skin changed as players progressed through matches, mimicking the dark face and glowing blue eyes seen in Ninja’s logo. While the Fall Guys design does not seem to change like the Fortnite skin, players could always throw on a black face plate if they prefer the logo design....

‘Rock ‘N’ Roll,’ 11/4: No contemporary playwright riffs on history like Tom Stoppard—and the journey from the 19th-century Russian revolutionaries of “The Coast of Utopia” to “Rock ’n’ Roll” has a certain logic. Set in Prague and Cambridge University, from 1968 to the Velvet Revolution 30 years later, the “Rock” characters—dissidents, protesters and professors—debate communism and the transformative power of music. Rufus Sewell, Sinead Cusack and Brian Cox from the original London cast will star in the Broadway premiere....

While civilians by the hundreds of thousands fled to makeshift camps, troop convoys rumbled into battle, hauling reinforcements as young as 14. Zizola says one thing has particularly struck him about the conflict: its stupidity. Even without the war, the two countries would be a disaster area. A three-year drought is threatening as many as 8 million of Ethiopia’s 60 million inhabitants–and 1 million of Eritrea’s 4 million people–with famine....

The Claim The host of the Tucker Carlson Tonight show made the claim on Wednesday night and also asserted that “Democratic partisans” used the death and the January 6 insurrection at the Capitol to overturn the “old order.” In the clip, which has been viewed more than 3 million times on Twitter, Carlson said the Black Lives Matter movement had changed the country “more in 5 months than in the past 50 years....

But as the dust settles and both sides play the blame game over who was responsible for the delay, a new favorite claim has emerged from Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and his top aides that pandemic relief would have reached millions of struggling Americans months ago—if only Democrats could have accepted an offer that’s been on the table all along. “Democrats blocked COVID relief for months, holding out for a bloated left-wing wish list, yet ended up embracing a bill ’exactly within the ballpark’ of the Senate Republican proposal from July,” McConnell’s office has said....

The so-called culture wars remain a cornerstone of the Republican campaign, as does its traditional views on law and order, so the opportunity to discredit Vice President Kamala Harris on both points seemed tailormade for the GOP. The Claim Multiple tweets, sent on October 23, 2022, claim that Kamala Harris advocated a legal fund that has been used to help “murderers and rapists” get out of jail. One tweet read: “Kamala Harris says it’s “misinformation” that she promoted the Minnesota Freedom Fund, a far-left organization that has bailed violent criminals—including accused murderers and rapists — out of jail....

Deepfakes have become an effective tool for misinformation, as Newsweek Fact Check has previously reported, but did a “fake-off” really occur between agents of the Russian and Ukrainian counterintelligence communities? The Claim On October 9, 2022, The Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine said on its official Telegram channel that Russian “pranksters” or “special services” had used deepfake technology to impersonate the Ukrainian prime minister, Denys Shmyhal, during a video call....

Scientists told Newsweek on February 24 that serious side-effects from the vaccine were rare at a time when 65 million doses had been given. Some examples of common reported side-effects include pain at the site of injection and tiredness. There also have been reports of people dying after receiving a vaccine, based on data from the CDC’s Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) reporting database. VAERS is a U.S.-based early warning system for vaccine side-effects....

As Biden called for unity during his inaugural address at the Capitol, viewers were reminded of the insurrection that took place at the historic building on January 6, when Trump-supporting rioters breached the Capitol, resulting in five deaths. NPR reported that “people allegedly affiliated with organizations such as The Three Percenters, The Oath Keepers, Proud Boys, Texas Freedom Force, and other self-described Nazis and white supremacists were among the mob that stormed the U....
