  • Alexis Jay was commissioned in 2013, but her Rotherham report was published in August 2014, not 2013.
  • Rotherham’s child sexual exploitation scandal was exposed in 2014, not 2016.

  • This is wrongly attributed to CEOP and the date is wrong. The 'underrepresented among prosecuted defendants' figure came from CPS data obtained by Full Fact in 2017/2018, while CEOP's published studies were from 2011 and 2013 and examined suspected grooming offenders, not prosecuted child-abuse defendants nationally.

  • Anthropic’s own materials describe multiple Mythos 5 biology eval conditions with 2 million tokens, not just 1 million. The screenshot reflects one condition, not all chem/bio automated evals.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisoning_of_Alexander_Litvinenko
  • This gets the timing wrong. Litvinenko made that accusation on October 19, 2006, and he died on November 23, 2006—about five weeks later, not two.
  • The medical timeline is off by a day. The official UK inquiry says Litvinenko remained unconscious on November 23, suffered a fatal cardiac arrest at 8:51 p.m. that day, and was pronounced dead at 9:21 p.m. on November 23.
  • That is incorrect: people had been tested for polonium-210 in their bodies long before 2006. Scientific papers decades earlier measured Po-210 in human urine and blood to estimate body burdens.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1999_Russian_apartment_bombings
  • This date is wrong. Credible reports place Basayev’s incursion into Dagestan on August 7, 1999, not August 5.
  • The Ryazan device was discovered on the evening of September 22, 1999, not September 23.
  • This sentence is incorrect on both points: the Buynaksk verdict was reported in March 2001, and six defendants were sentenced in that trial, not seven.

  • Signal-ന്റെ Android ആപ്പിൽ SMS/MMS പിന്തുണ നീക്കം ചെയ്തിട്ടുണ്ട്; അത് ഇനി SMS ആപ്പായി പ്രവർത്തിക്കില്ല.
  • 1793-ലെ ഫ്രഞ്ച് റിപ്പബ്ലിക്കൻ ഭരണഘടന 24 ജൂൺ 1793-ന് അംഗീകരിക്കപ്പെട്ടത് ശരിയാണ്, പക്ഷേ അത് പ്രാബല്യത്തിൽ വന്നില്ല; അതിന്റെ പ്രയോഗം അതേ വർഷം തന്നെ നിർത്തിവെച്ചു.
  • Focke-Wulf Fw 61-ന്റെ ആദ്യ പറക്കൽ 1934-ൽ അല്ല, 1936 ജൂൺ 26-നാണ്.

  • This is incorrect: Yuri Andropov did not lead the Soviet Politburo in February 1973. The Soviet leader then was Leonid Brezhnev; Andropov only became Soviet leader in November 1982.
  • Klaus Fuchs was a Soviet atomic spy, but not the main agent of the Rosenberg spy ring. Official histories describe the Rosenberg ring as separate from the network that handled Fuchs.
  • The assassination date is off by one day. Ziaur Rahman was assassinated in Chittagong on May 30, 1981, not May 29, 1981.

  • The old-style/new-style dates do not match here. In 1916–1917, Russian old-style (Julian) dates were 13 days behind Gregorian dates, so 21 December 1916 O.S. corresponds to 3 January 1917, not 2 January.

  • In September 2023, authorities unveiled a new replica of the Dzerzhinsky monument at SVR headquarters in Moscow. The original monument was not re-erected there, and the site is in Moscow’s Yasenevo district, not outside Moscow.

  • This sentence is off by a year. The Section 702 reauthorization was signed into law on January 19, 2018, not in January 2019.
  • This misstates when the report was produced. Official sources say the declassified HPSCI report was produced in September 2020, after Nunes' chairmanship had ended.
  • This uses the wrong election term. California's 1998 contest was an "open primary," not the state's later top-two system.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kash_Patel
  • Patel’s ODNI title is misstated here. His Senate questionnaire says he was "Principal Deputy to the Acting Director of National Intelligence," not Principal Deputy Director of National Intelligence.
  • Official biographies place Patel’s DOJ service starting in 2014, not 2012. Before DOJ, he was still serving in the Federal Public Defender’s Office.
  • Patel’s official records show he did not start at DOJ in 2012. His DOJ service began in January 2014.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/$Trump
  • This title is wrong: Thom Tillis was not the Senate majority leader. In the 119th Congress, the Senate’s official majority leader was John Thune.
  • The year is wrong. Donald Trump’s second inauguration took place on January 20, 2025, not in 2024.

  • This timeline is wrong. Trevor Milton was pardoned in March 2025, while Changpeng Zhao was pardoned in October 2025, so Milton was pardoned months earlier—not two weeks later.
  • This misstates Zhao’s case. Zhao pleaded guilty to a Bank Secrecy Act offense involving Binance’s anti-money-laundering controls; the multibillion-dollar penalty was imposed on Binance, not as part of Zhao’s personal conviction.
  • This is incorrect. Kash Patel had substantial law-and-justice experience before becoming FBI director, including work as a public defender and as a DOJ counterterrorism prosecutor.
  • This gets the family member wrong. Reports say the $1 million dinner attendee was Paul Walczak’s mother, Elizabeth Fago—not his wife.

  • This sentence gets both dates wrong: Hugo Chávez was elected in 1998 but took office on February 2, 1999, and ALBA was founded on December 14, 2004, not in 2003.
  • This number is incorrect. Saint Lucia’s own government said in May 2006 that nearly 1,800 Saint Lucians had been treated under the project, and Saint Lucia’s Cuban eye center did not open until 2009.
