A study by the Heartland Institute, based on a Rasmussen survey, claims that one in five mail-in voters admitted to potentially fraudulent actions during the 2020 election. The report suggests that if the majority of Americans had voted in person, the election outcome might have favored Donald Trump.

A Heartland/Rasmussen poll found that 21% of mail-in voters admitted to committing some form of fraud during the 2020 election, such as filling out a ballot for someone else. The story has been largely ignored by mainstream media, despite its implications for the legitimacy of the election system.

The BBC is criticized for framing concerns about "15-minute cities" as conspiracy theories linked to fossil fuel think tanks. While proponents argue these urban designs improve quality of life, skeptics point to traffic filters and fines in Oxford as precursors to "climate lockdowns." The segment highlights the use of "nudges" by government agencies to influence public behavior regarding travel and diet.

CBS News featured Joe Bast of the Heartland Institute as a "climate realist" in a segment the hosts claim was edited to make him look physically unappealing. Bast argues that the risks of man-made greenhouse gases are exaggerated and that warmer climates could benefit humanity. The hosts deconstruct the news segment's use of ominous B-roll footage of storms and rising tides to counter Bast's arguments.
