British journalists who criticised the Russian Olympic skater Kamila Valieva for failing her drug test were advised by her comrades to check their tea.
Someone told the British media team 'You will be positive when you discover some new substances in your tea.'
Litvinenko was a former KGB agent who criticised the Kremlin. He did not check his tea, and he passed away in 2006.
If you are an enemy of the Russian state who must go out to lunch, be absolutely sure to check your tea.

Get the Check your tea mug.Anything or anyone that is unreliable or fake or a fantasy. A delusional concept. An idea that doesn’t make sense. A gullible person that can be taken advantage of. A scam that everyone knows is a scam.
That guy Jim is a DOGE Check. He falls for everything!
I got an email about a potential room mate but I have to send them money first. Total DOGE Check.
Tariff reimbursement checks are obviously just a DOGE check,

Get the Check Up mug.The inherent skew introduced when the process of verifying factual claims becomes institutionalized, gatekept by specific media or tech entities, and is applied disproportionately. This bias isn't about truth vs. falsehood, but about which truths get scrutinized, how context is framed, and whose statements are subjected to a forensic audit while others enjoy implied credibility. It often reflects the political and cultural priorities of the fact-checking institution.
Example: A fact-checking organization rigorously rates a progressive politician's minor statistical exaggeration as "Mostly False," while using a more charitable, context-laden analysis to rate a conservative ally's demonstrably false claim about election integrity as "Lacking Context." The bias of fact-checking lies in the uneven application of scrutiny, shaping public perception of credibility rather than merely dispensing truth.
