Fact-checking Tim Walz, JD Vance debate claims on opioid deaths, immigration and housing shortage

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and Ohio Sen. JD Vance made some claims about immigration, fentanyl and housing that the CBS News Confirmed team fact-checked in real time. CBS News chief Washington correspondent Major Garrett breaks down the results.

This fact checking needs to be fact checked.

[sizzlemcnizzle]

Your fact-checking needs fact-checking.

[maureen]

cBS You are STILL NOT reporting honestly.

[frankfowlkes]

Propaganda as usual. Network news is a joke. I wish Walter Cronkite was still here!

[upsidedown]

She was to the border czar!. There’s literally video evidence but you’re telling us to not believe our lying eyes and believe your words instead. This blatant insulting of our intelligence has got to stop. I’m fed up.

[jsprung]

Who’s fact checking the fact checkers though?

[ButWhatDoIKnow]

This is literally liars, lying about the level of liar's lying!

[Guitargreat]

You guys didn’t call out any lies from Tim!

[thomascastilleja]

I remember the Democrats were getting in the way of the wall being built, calling him racist and causing problems on the border.

[sandralynnsparks]

This seems pretty shabby for a fact check. I will continue my boycott of CBS News.

[louminati]

Dear SeeBS, I do not think the majority of these comments think your version of facts is accurate.

[ross]

I noticed that more than half the fact checker have their comments turned off. What does that tell you?

[luckyred]

30% is the Largest decrease, because the current administration drove it up several hundred % immediately before that

[davidb]

When I see the fact checkers saying that Kamala Harris was never the border czar it tells me everything.

[jasonyankovec]

On 3/24/21 Biden appointed her to lead the team to address the Southern boarder issues and work with the countries involved.

[Fishman]

The border bill would not decrease immigration. It would have made it more efficient.

[imCXS-zhyt]

The media needs to be fact checked itself

[TheUMIA]

Walz lies and then goes on avoiding the question for 2 minutes. Walz ends up saying he "misspoke" and is a "knucklehead." Wow.

[SFD]

Why does CBS want to look Blind and Dumb. I never watch CBS and now I will not watch them even more.

[DaSneakyAzn]

This isn't fact checking, its false feeding information to the public. I thought you guys were always against misinformation? Are you telling your audience you've been hypocrites this whole time?
