This social media post with 4m views claims Denmark is upping tariffs on Ozempic by 500% for the US only.

Denmark hasn't announced such plans. However, a US-imposed tariff on Denmark could make Ozempic more expensive to US customers.

A video claims to show ECB president Christine Lagarde “changing her tune” on Bitcoin following Trump’s EU tariff threat.

The video is four years old.

Trying to make a case for Canada joining the US as its 51st state, Trump said the US pays over $100bn/year in subsidies to Canada.

However, the US official website shows that foreign assistance to Canada hasn’t exceeded $35.1m/fiscal year since 2001.

The crash happened between 1-2 am UTC, and metadata shows the CNN articles in the viral screenshots were published at 2:40 am and 3:20 am UTC.

NYT published roughly the same time, further disproving the idea that CNN had some corrupt head start.

One viral misinfo narrative following the Washington DC plane crash is that @cnn.com knew about the crash "hours" before it happened and published their article in advance.

Metadata refutes this, as does a CNN spokesperson speaking to @logicallyfacts.com.

as much as I admire the human-like qualities of Gmail's AI-driven reply feature... "Ugh." might be taking it a bit too far

Nice to see this picked up by Sweden's public broadcaster @svtnyheter.bsky.social alongside their excellent debunk - apparently, a nuclear weapon video from a YouTube science channel has been misrepresented in Russian media as a sign of Western aggression.
