Rep. Nancy Pelosi made an impassioned case for facts and an "evidence-based conversation" during Tuesday's contentious Oval Office meeting that has fact-checkers working overtime.

Pelosi and Sen. Chuck Schumer pushed back against President Trump's statements linking migrants to everything from terrorism to contagious diseases as a justification for funding the border wall.

A Washington Post fact check pointed out that a recent U.S. State Department report found "no credible information that any member of a terrorist group has traveled through Mexico to gain access to the United States."
