We’re sure hearing a lot about “disinformation” lately, and one of the lies that really gets to us is that President Donald Trump called neo-Nazis in Charlottesville “very fine people.” President Joe Biden, who just yesterday was telling teachers he knew what hard work it was from when he was a professor at the University of Pennsylvania, has repeated the “fine people” hoax from the kickoff of his campaign to the debates to a global audience in Brussels. Another one is the line that Trump told Americans to drink bleach to cure the coronavirus. Video fabulist Aaron Rupar disagrees with the fact-check saying Trump never said to drink bleach … he said to inject bleach.
Speaks volumes that Twitter’s incoming owner is comparing Trump’s Twitter ripoff favorably with Twitter because Twitter fact checked stuff like Trump suggesting people should drink bleach https://t.co/zzTGTeHGrS

Remember, because what Trump said was dumb, it is okay to lie about the specifics of what he said, all while claiming to care about fact-checking.https://t.co/3zkCheXvRq https://t.co/Q0Gdt3o9sS pic.twitter.com/DPbtkOWxCH

That’s right. He suggested you should inject it. *Big* difference

How many days until Rupar is made a member-at-large of the Biden administration’s new Disinformation Governance Board?
It takes a lot of skill to lie about something that's literally below your lie.

This is a literal LIE. You keep gaslighting your readers.
You cannot be this stupid.
But you think everyone else is.

There is audio. You can literally listen to the audio and know this is not true.

And he added I'm joking of course. Weird how that part never gets mentioned.

Here’s a link to the study that was going around Twitter at the time, showing UV light injected via device into trachea to disinfect. Full transcript shows Trump specified UV light twice. https://t.co/KYA57o0CEq https://t.co/CrunCIKQAp

Not only that, but a reporter specifically asked Trump at the briefing to clarify whether he was talking about injecting bleach into the body and Trump said no. https://t.co/1kbC9b6KJW https://t.co/j48DYQhx5w

Don't enter into a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent, though it is hilarious, it would be bad form

Oh Scott, you and your verifiable facts! There is no room for that here.

As if context will matter to Aaron Rupar. Only the most intelligent/informed Twitter users were aware they were “injecting” UV light via “proprietary methods.” The truth dies while the lie multiplies.

80% or greater chance @atrupar will not respond to this.

Oh, and also, Trump told people to ingest fish tank cleanser and ended up murdering a man.
