Claim 1: “The FIFA World Cup kicks off next week and will be played across the United States, Mexico and Canada, but not in Chicago.”
VERIFIED BY REFERENCE
Wikipedia and other sources confirm the 2026 World Cup is hosted by the US, Mexico, and Canada. While the evidence confirms 11 US cities are hosting, it does not explicitly list Chicago as one of them, and the general consensus of the host city lists (11 US cities) excludes Chicago.
