CNN cut off live coverage of former President Donald Trump's campaign speech Thursday to deliver a lengthy fact-check over a "number of falsehoods."
Anchors Brianna Keilar and Boris Sanchez interrupted the Republican presidential nominee's rally in Saginaw, Michigan, to correct a series of false statements, even as Trump railed against "lying" Vice President Kamala Harris, whose name he mispronounced.
"We're not going to stand for it anymore," Trump roared. "Kamala, you're fired, get out, you're fired."
CNN then cut to a seemingly weary Sanchez.
"We've been listening to former President Donald Trump," Sanchez said, "essentially attacking his Democratic rival, saying a number of falsehoods that we will fact check."
Trump's falsehoods touched on Haitian immigrants in Ohio, whom the former president has falsely claimed eat pets, as well as his previous stances on federal financial protections, security at his rallies and won the 2020 election, according to Sanchez and Keilar.

The former president inflated the number of the approximately 15,000 Haitian immigrants with temporary protected status who have moved to Springfield, a city of roughly 60,000, Sanchez said.
"He was off on those numbers," the CNN anchor said. "[Trump], there, changing the numbers dramatically, altering them nearly to double those numbers."
Sanchez also argued Trump contradicted past statements on Social Security and Medicare, but did not explain how. Trump said in his speech:
"Medicare and Social Security will buckle and collapse from the weight of all of these people becoming proud members of our Social Security system, isn't that nice? Remember, for four years I took care of it. I didn't raise the age five years. You know what that means. That means 'Darling, I thought I was going to have Social Security. I thought I was going to retire a little early but they've raised the age by five or six or seven years.' That's what they're going to do to you. I won't because I would have done it already. I was going to do it. But they're going to do it. They're going to do it. And they're, they're really destroying the whole system."
Keilar then dove into the fact check to say Trump had lied about the White House restricting his ability to hold rallies at larger venues by failing to provide him property security.
"Not true," said Keilar, "But we know that he is certainly sensitive to crowd numbers in any appearance that they may have shrunk."
Finally, Keilar called Trump out on his commentary on the election that he lost to President Joe Biden and that stands at the heart of two criminal court cases against him.
"He said that the vote needs to be too big to rig because he won in 2020, which he did it," Keilar said. "He said 2020 was rigged, which it wasn't."
