MRCTV

Facebook fact-checked a Mike Pompeo quote about energy independence: MRCTV posted a graphic quoting former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on energy independence. "Joe Biden's energy policy emboldened Putin by leaving us dependent on Russian oil. As much as he tries to deflect blame, Biden is responsible for the high prices at the pump," read the quote graphic. MRCTV captioned the post saying "Joe Biden destroyed our energy independence on his first day in office by canceling the Keystone XL pipeline. Learn more: keystonedocumentary.org." Facebook claimed that the post was "missing context" and cited an AFP fact-check article that conflated the term "energy independence" with "energy isolation." MRC Free Speech America's research found that other experts and even other fact-checkers openly disagreed with AFP's evaluation of energy independence.
