I don’t know if true/not true but I stopped reading nationfile.com a short time ago when a couple of their articles used axios as a source. Axios, IMO, is liberal garbage. Just my two cents.
Just chiming in - the nationfile has “sources” without names. Usually means disinfo/misinfo. And Axios started up right after Trump was elected, by Politico staff. Occasionally they insert a little nugget of truth to keep readers. Otherwise, it’s not much different than its parent.
