January 19, 2024The claim: Nikki Haley used HAARP technology to disrupt Iowa caucus
A Jan. 12 Instagram post (direct link, archive link) questions if the weather was being controlled to affect the results of the Iowa Caucuses.
"Is the Deep State activating HAARP to disrupt the Iowa Caucus?" conservative activist Laura Loomer asks in a post on X, formerly Twitter, that is shared as a screenshot. "We all know @NikkiHaley has a lot of friends in the defense industry and Military industrial complex. She’s losing in Iowa, and now Iowa is set to get hit with a ONCE IN A DECADE blizzard as Donald Trump is set to dominate the Iowa Caucus."
The Instagram post garnered more than 1,000 likes in three days. Similar versions of the claim were shared on Instagram and Facebook.
Our rating: False
The claim is nonsense. Experts have repeatedly told USA TODAY that the High-frequency Active Auroral Research Program, also known as HAARP, can't manipulate the weather. The Arctic weather was caused by a naturally occurring atmospheric circulation pattern.
