The week in whoppers: Hunter gaslights on Biden corruption, MSNBC writer smears GOP on voting rights and more

Diary of disturbing disinformation and harmful delusions

This declare:

“I didn’t contain my father in my enterprise.”

— Hunter Biden, Wednesday

We are saying: President Biden’s drug-addled, influence-peddling son tried to gaslight lawmakers (and the general public) by flatly contradicting emails, witness testimony and even images displaying that his dad met together with his enterprise associates.

Hmm: Maybe the primary son figures perjury’s no huge deal after committing firearms, tax-evasion, drug, prostitution, foreign-lobbying and contempt-of-Congress offenses . . .

This definition:

“The literal that means of Jihad is ‘wrestle.’”

— NYC-run anti-bias webinar for lecturers, Feb. 20

We are saying: They name this “anti-bias” coaching, nevertheless it’s actually simply propaganda meant to whitewash Islamic extremism.

Sure, “jihad” technically interprets to “wrestle.” However the webinar hid the truth that the time period’s extra widespread definition is “holy battle” and never a private wrestle, say, to drop pounds (because the session urged).

Give it some thought: Are Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorists looking for to soak up their waistlines — or slaughter their enemies?

This boast:

“Underneath the Biden-Harris Administration, there was a major lower in crime — together with one of many largest yearly declines in homicides ever.”

— White Home reality sheet, Thursday

We are saying: What chutzpah! Democrats, together with Biden, backed defunding the police, excused violence (particularly amid the George Floyd riots), put in pro-criminal “prosecutors” and raced to maintain perps out of jail.

VP Kamala Harris even promoted a fund for rioters. Violent crime, natch, soared. It was solely public stress that ultimately led some cities to crack down, and homicides fell.

But it was folks like Biden and Harris who fueled the crime surge within the first place — and had nothing to do with any “decline.”

This cost:

“[After 2020], Republicans . . . began rolling again voting rights and waging authorized fights to limit voter entry.” 

— MSNBC’s Ja’han Jones, Thursday

We are saying: Sorry, however Republicans by no means sought to suppress any reputable votes (or, as Dems have finished, kick candidates off ballots).

Sure, some states aimed to curb voter fraud, which dilutes reputable votes and threatens democracy.

However voters had no issues with these strikes: For instance, after Georgia reformed its legal guidelines (a change Biden known as “Jim Crow 2.0”), the state set data for turnout and voters had few complaints.
