'HE DIDN'T SAY THAT'! Chris Cillizza just straight-up LIED about Donald Trump's Kavanaugh remarks

Please accept our apology. We know we’ve already covered Chris Cillizza being a hack today, but we can’t let this one go.

CBS News’ Mark Knoller relayed Donald Trump’s recent remarks regarding the Kavanaugh-Ford case:

Pres Trump says he still hasn't spoken to Judge Kavanaugh, but says he knows he has @POTUS' support. Pres is critical of Dems and @SenFeinstein for handling of allegation against Kavanaugh. Says FBI doesn't want to reopen its background investigation.

And this was Cillizza’s takeaway:

No big deal: Just the president telling the FBI to ignore an allegation of sexual assault https://t.co/lvO8w9ccOm

Sorry, what?

You simply cannot be taken seriously. https://t.co/FkBG1iY9jH

This is, and I know it will shock you all when I say this, Chris Cillizza not knowing what he's actually talking about. https://t.co/WIC5ymW4BY

THAT'S NOT WHAT HAPPENED.

How bad can you be at this whole "facts" thing? https://t.co/81YYKy71bj

Wow, @CillizzaCNN literally contorts Mark’s reporting of what Trump says. pic.twitter.com/YW5j0PEwuT

Uh. The FBI said it first, you hack. https://t.co/RHpeIBY5Ua

"telling the FBI"? Tweet says "[Trump] Says FBI doesn't want to reopen…" didn't the FBI already say they would not be investigating? I don't trust Pres. Trump at all, but I don't see how this is accurate. Do you have a quote of his actual words?

— Jeryl Bier (@JerylBier) September 18, 2018

Trump's actual words on Kavanaugh and FBI: "I don't think the FBI really should be involved because they don't want to be involved; if they wanted to be I would certainly do that, but as you know they say this is not really their thing."https://t.co/tq4OX2DbVV

That’s definitely not what Chris Cillizza said Trump said.

The FBI already said they were not going to investigate considering there was no mention of a federal crime being committed. You hack.

You have the timeline wrong.

The FBI said this morning that they weren't going to investigate.

Trump is relaying what the FBI said this morning.

I don't expect you to correct this. https://t.co/RHpeIBY5Ua

This is a lie. He didn’t say that.

This is so dishonest. https://t.co/y3ti9W71rH

have you ever been such a genius top political analyst that you quote-tweeted the tweet showing you're lying pic.twitter.com/AgdARVkMs2

— Alex Griswold (@HashtagGriswold) September 18, 2018

Where in @CillizzaCNN clearly lies about what Trump said (I watched in live, he said no such thing).

Curious if @chucktodd thinks this is another one of those "IT IS FOX'S FAULT" moments. https://t.co/atsUlGyTav

Oh Chris, you already KNOW FBI declined to investigate a none crime with no evidence, passed time limits, and out of their jurisdiction. Why are you pushing so many lies?

— Deedee71 (@orangecone21) September 18, 2018

Hey, it’s a living.

The FBI made that decision on its own. Not sure how you could possibly interpret his statement that way in good faith.

— Mike Smith (@nyyb4life) September 18, 2018

Chris Cillizza doesn’t give a damn about good faith. Mr. Reporters-Don’t-Root-For-A-Side has an agenda to push and he won’t let anything stand in his way. Especially the truth.
