Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has been testifying before a House committee and Republicans have been raking him over the coals about the mess at the southern border of the U.S. One such example came when Rep. Chip Roy of Texas absolutely leveled Mayorkas for either sugar-coating or flat out lying about how bad things are at the border. Democrat Rep. Jerrold Nadler then accused Rep. Roy of slander for simply pointing out reality:

The Democrats of course couldn’t handle the reality checks Republicans were delivering, and they resorted to familiar tactics:

Mayorkas was the person spreading “disinformation,” and the Democrats probably know that, but they’re not about to admit the reality of the situation (or that the border mess is intentional), so “bigotry” it is:

Until the DHS gets its Ministry of Truth up and running the Democrats are doing their best to keep any unhelpful realities labeled as “disinformation.”
