10 assertions · 1 opinion · 3 disclosures · every statement was checked. The predictions and assertions are the 10 claims: statements the public record can support or contradict. 0 are resolved, and 10 name no date, number or outcome precise enough to check. Everything else (opinions, insights, what ifs, disclosures) can never be settled by the record, so it carries no assessment.
