“60 Minutes” straight-up lied about Ron DeSantis.
They deserve to be raked over the coals for it.
But while that kind of crap may not fly with people who give a damn about the truth, it’s good enough for the Principled Conservatives at the Lincoln Project:
This is now how an innocent man responds https://t.co/7HJEgctdo3

We assume they meant to say “not,” not “now.”
And, as it turns out, this is exactly how an innocent man responds to character assassination. Brett Kavanaugh’s critics went with the same framing when Kavanaugh responded angrily to being baselessly accused of rape and sexual predation. Ron DeSantis’ response is precisely the response you’d expect from a man being smeared by an ostensible journalist.
But since the Lincoln Project loves few things more than a good smear, we shouldn’t be surprised that they’d be all over this garbage.
Should come as no surprise to anyone that the Grifter Project is tweeting the false narrative from 60 minutes. Maybe they also didn’t see the entire interview that was cut by the “program”? Should it be surprising that the Grifter Project is capitalizing on fake news? https://t.co/EBBhXgDRYP

Not surprising in the least.
How does an innocent man respond? Oh, none of you would know. https://t.co/iAv52jGYMA

It's always been how an innocent man responds.
Also, you knew about John Weaver. https://t.co/K27jIQIcba

Yes it is. Also, @60Minutes edited the footage. Also, you guys protected a sexual predator https://t.co/RJ3PgdlO9R

And their only regret is that they got caught.
Go do something you're good at,like cover for a child predator

Stick to what you know, Lincoln Project, and leave the innocence stuff to the innocent.
