While presenting a series of executive orders conceived to increase electricity generation from coal, President Donald Trump misleadingly suggested that environmental regulations were to blame for the industry’s decline, wrongly said that coal plants are being opened “all over Germany,” and misleadingly, and repeatedly, referred to coal as “clean.”

Though Arizona has approximately 50,000 registered voters who haven’t submitted the documents required to prove citizenship—limiting them to voting in federal elections—these voters have not been shown to be noncitizens.  AllSides highlights content from Gigafact, a network of newsrooms that respond to online claims.

In recent weeks, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has said that “very, very strong studies” link food dyes to cancer and ADHD. Experts are concerned about the impacts of unhealthy diets and obesity in the U.S., but some say Kennedy overstates the role of food dyes in chronic disease.

The dyes haven’t been shown to cause cancer in humans. Studies show a possible link to symptoms of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder in children.

When President Donald Trump has talked about the need for higher tariffs on imports of foreign goods because of a decline in American manufacturing, he has often made the claim that “90,000 plants and factories” in the U.S. closed after the North American Free Trade Agreement with Canada and Mexico took effect in 1994. But that figure is questionable, and experts say other factors, such as automation, had more to do with the large decline in U.S. manufacturing jobs than trade.

The administration appears inclined to adopt Russia’s wholly fictionalized version of the facts of this war.

In the wake of the fatal stabbing at a Frisco high school track meet, the CBS News Texas I-Team found a surge of misinformation has swept through social media platforms, causing confusion and fear. 

High-profile X accounts (formerly Twitter), including @EndWokeness and @LibsofTikTok, quickly amplified the incident just hours after it occurred on April 2, claiming it received "zero national outrage" and didn't "fit the narrative." These posts garnered nearly 50 million views.

A quiet revolution is unfolding in the cryptocurrency world, and it's not about Bitcoin or Ethereum. The focus is on stablecoins, a type of cryptocurrency pegged to a specific reserve asset, often the U.S. dollar, which allows them to maintain a steadier value. According to the World Economic Forum, stablecoins are essentially digital dollars designed to stay steady, unlike cryptocurrencies that spike or plummet in value like Bitcoin or Dogecoin.

On four separate occasions, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the Health and Human Services secretary, has suggested that the measles outbreak in Texas, which is now over 500 cases, is beginning to subside and grow more slowly. But a review of state data indicates there’s no decline yet in the pace of cases.

Yes. Current population forecasts indicate that states like New York and California, which tend to elect Democrats, may lose congressional seats following apportionment, a process that redistributes the country’s 435 congressional districts every 10 years.  AllSides highlights content from Gigafact, a network of newsrooms that respond to online claims.

Before President Donald Trump paused some new tariffs that he unveiled on April 2, several economic groups estimated that tariffs he has announced this year could raise between roughly $2 trillion and more than $4 trillion in federal revenue over a 10-year period. But that’s well short of the $6 trillion or $7 trillion that White House trade adviser Peter Navarro claimed the tariffs would raise to help pay for tax cuts, including an extension of the 2017 tax law.
