As Twitchy told you, over the weekend, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez tried to pretend that some of the choicest bits from the disastrous Green New Deal FAQ that her team tried to memory-hole had been “doctored”:
There are multiple doctored GND resolutions and FAQs floating around. There was also a draft version that got uploaded + taken down. There’s also draft versions floating out there.
Point is, the real one is our submitted resolution, H.Res. 109: https://t.co/ZlgWmNQn57

You’ve gotta hand it to her: She’s got chutzpah. It takes a certain amount of brazenness to just go out there and try to gaslight everyone in the face of evidence that demonstrates quite conclusively that you’re completely full of it. But it’s probably easier to lie to people when you know the Guardians of Truth will cover for you:
Ocasio-Cortez gaslights all of Twitter.

Oh.
Wait, what???
They lied about it even being in there. Also, the actual resolution promises “economic security” for all Americans. Presumably that includes those “unwilling to work”. https://t.co/chBItXAzrb

Wouldn't the act of walking something back concede that it was advanced in the first place… https://t.co/nSlnyHHNiQ

Who knew that memory-holing something immediately made it unworthy of fact checking?

Or they’re just operating at the mental level of WaPo.
So I guess all the arguing with the refs from a few weeks back had the intended effect.

The Washington Post stands for the truth. Unfortunately the legs they’re standing on are made of Jell-O.
