Remember back in July when Dan Lyons, a staff writer on HBO’s “Silicon Valley,” posted this fake Jim Jordan quote which quickly went viral?
GOP rallies around Trump 9/11 role. “While Obama and Biden were cowering in fear on Air Force 1, Mr. Trump was on the ground with first responders searching for survivors and pulling people to safety,” Jim Jordan says. “I remember seeing him on TV, running toward the danger.”
Well, he’s at it again, this time with a fake Sen. Lindsey Graham quote saying the whistelblower has been identified and he or she will be prosecuted:
Just now: @LindseyGrahamSC tells @CNN whistleblower has been ID'd and will be prosecuted: "I think anyone would know that you can't snitch on the president of the United States and think you're going to get away with that. This person's going to prison." pic.twitter.com/lsBgHTw3W8

Yesterday Rep. Ilhan Omar accused President Trump of putting her life at risk for spreading fake news about her. Why is this any different?
This is from a CBC event we hosted this weekend to celebrate black women in Congress.
The President of the United States is continuing to spread lies that put my life at risk.
What is Twitter doing to combat this misinformation? https://t.co/XdkRVrU7mZ

Anyway, what’s funny — AGAIN — is that all this does is make his allies look stupid. Guys, start apologizing:
