Seems Kamala Harris lied during CNN’s train wreck of a town hall on climate change.
Yeah, we know, you’re shocked.
And c’mon, if Politifact calls something Kamala claimed false you know it is SERIOUSLY and TOTALLY false.
Kamala Harris claimed she ‘sued Exxon Mobil’ as California AG. She didn’t. | PolitiFact California https://t.co/s6BlFr2s4Z

From Politifact:
We found Harris’ office investigated Exxon in 2016 over allegations it lied to the public and its shareholders about the risk to its business from climate change. The Los Angeles Times detailed that probe in a January 2016 news article. It said Exxon rejected the allegations.
But there’s no public record, and nothing that Harris’ campaign could provide, to show she filed a lawsuit against the company.
“The facts are Harris opened an investigation against Exxon for lying about climate change. She didn’t take that further even though she should have and other attorney generals did,” said Kassie Siegel, climate director at the Center for Biological Diversity Action Fund. “She did bring some cases against oil companies. I’m not aware of a case that she actually brought against Exxon. And she didn’t bring the case against Exxon for lying about climate change.”
Womp womp womp.
We’re shocked … SHOCKED!
Doesn't matter. She'll say she didn't say that.

Or she’ll claim she didn’t hear it, like how she didn’t hear that guy drop the phrase, ‘mentally retarded’ at her event.

And the Left will give her a pass.
She lies on just about everything

It would probably be more newsworthy if she actually told the truth.
Fair.
Gee looks like Joe Biden isn’t the only one making stuff up!
