Why Troubling News:

The article shows a clear right-wing bias, evident from the word “hails” in the title. It praises Trump’s National Guard deployment in D.C. for lowering crime but ignores critics who call it federal overreach. Though it cites data, its partisan tone and lack of opposing views reduce its credibility.

Why Troubling News:

This article is troubling because it paints with a broad brush, using only Zohan Mamdani's popularity as evidence of an Islamic Revolution in America. The author ignores the effects of immigration and the geopolitical complexity of this issue; thus, no supporting evidence is provided proving that there will be an "Islamic Revolution." The article conveniently does not explore the destabilization of many Islamic nations in the last fifty years due to the United States and its wars in the Middle East, which have driven many people of Islamic origin to emigrate from their home countries. Additionally, there were many Chinatowns, Little Italys, and other ethnic communities in large American cities since the late 19th century, discrediting the argument that masses of Islamic citizens will lead to a revolution. This article does not attack Mamdani's political points, which could be easily critiqued, and instead incoprporates identity politics, something the right has opposed in the past.

Why Troubling News:

gives little to no sources or evidence to support their claims. They give quotes on an interview where Jefferies declines to comment on deferring his paycheck, but gives no evidence on polls stating Republicans' approval ratings are increasing and Democrats' approval ratings are decreasing. Additionally, the article is one-sided, solely blaming the Democrats for the government shutdown.

Why Troubling News:

This article has a clear, strong, right-leaning bias. Immediately from the title of the article, the term 'hails' indicates the opinion of the author writing the article, making it strongly partisan. The article discusses Trump's deployment of the National Guard to help lower the crime rate in DC and the success rate of the change. While the article cites data to suggest the deployment truly has helped lower crime rates, it fails to acknowledge the opposing views of many people. The main complaint is that the presence of the National Guard is a federal overstep and that local authorities should be allowed to conduct their actions as normal. Additionally, there are several vague mentions of consequences coming from the federal government for cities like New York and Los Angeles that have failed to follow suit with DC. The data in the article helps it to be reliable, but the blatant opinion stated is partisan, and the lack of the opposing side further decreases its reliability.

Newsmax has a story referencing the United States borrowing money to fund illegal immigrants. This is a popular point of misinformation being spread by very conservative individuals.

Why Troubling News:

This Breitbart article attempts to characterize Jack Smith's Capitol riot investigation as a takedown of a political movement (MAGA) when in reality it had to do with investigating who was involved with the insurrection on January 6, 2021.

Why Troubling News:

President Trump spoke at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in South Korea and he claimed that Toyota was going to spend $10 Billion in the US and that they were going to build new manufacturing plants. But an executive from Toyota spoke out and said that they didn't specifically say that. So the misinformation in this article comes from what trump said and MSBNC reported on it.

Why Troubling News:

This is troubling news to me because of the heavy bias seen within the article. While MSNBC is known for having a heavy left-leaning bias, the most biased articles are typically labeled as "opinion". However, this has not been the case with this specific article, which may mislead the public into thinking this is the consensus across the entire nation. There are significant groups of people within the United States that support the ongoing shutdown because they are against the democrats, and MSNBC's cemented left-wing perspective makes it seem like this is false. The writing also feels very colloquial, as if the author, Steve Benen, was talking to a friend and complaining. Phrases like "(Support for the reform law reached 66% in June, making it more than 20 points more popular than the president who hates it, and raising the question of whether the president is just jealous.)" and "but the president want Democrats, who have minimal power and even less influence in the nation’s capital, to fix the health care problem that Trump and his GOP allies have helped create." This may be misleading, even if there is no overt case of misinformation.

Why Troubling News:

This Breitbart news article is misleading. When we analyze the story's title, it almost makes it seem like a fact that Judge Boasberg will be impeached or will be moving through the impeachment process. When the story is fact-checked, there were, in fact, articles of impeachment filed against Boasberg back in March of 2025, yet it is unlikely he will be impeached since there are not enough Republican votes in the House. Being that Breitbart is a medium right-wing news outlet, they can provide skewed and biased media, especially on this topic, as Boasberg was against Trump's policy on deporting undocumented immigrants.
