All figures are as stated in the video — most are allegations, not adjudicated findings. Every dollar figure links to the timestamp where it is said. Extraction QA: All seven claims are accurately extracted and verifiable against the transcript, with sensible interpretations for garbled figures. Entities are all supported, and the ASR reconstructions (Charleroi, Sylacauga, Kamala Harris) are correctly flagged. High-quality extraction with no hallucinations.
