Politico Hit Piece on Clarence Thomas Goes Horribly Wrong.

 

Earlier this week, Politico made a horrible attempt to attack Justice Clarence Thomas in a hastily written “fact-check” that turned out to be false.

 

According to Politico, Thomas claimed that COVID-19 vaccines were developed from cells from aborted children, a claim Politico insisted was false.

“They object on religious grounds to all available COVID-19 vaccines because they were developed using cell lines derived from aborted children,” Thomas said in a quote cited by Politico. In response to this claim, Politico insisted, “None of the Covid-19 vaccines in the United States contain the cells of aborted fetuses.”

 

There were, however, two problems with this so-called fact check.

 

First, Thomas didn’t actually make the statement. Politico eventually learned this and issued a correction:

 

An earlier version of this report misattributed the claim that Covid-19 vaccines were “developed using cell lines derived from aborted children” to Thomas. The headline and article have been updated to directly state that Thomas was referencing petitioners’ claims.

 

The next problem is that the claim wasn’t that the vaccine contained cells from aborted fetuses. It’s that these cells were used in the development of the vaccines—which is factually correct, and even Politico acknowledges this in the following sentence after claiming it was false.

 

None of the Covid-19 vaccines in the United States contain the cells of aborted fetuses. Cells obtained from elective abortions decades ago were used in research during the development of the Covid vaccine, a practice that is common in vaccine research.

 

Regardless of who claimed how the vaccines were developed, the claim wasn’t that they contain cells of aborted fetuses; it was about how the vaccines were developed. This correction about who said what is really beside the point. No one said the vaccines “contain the cells of aborted fetuses,” as Politico implies. They were trying to destroy Clarence Thomas and didn’t care about the facts, so they falsely attributed a claim to him and then distorted the claim to suggest it was wrong.

 

While we would call this misinformation, the left calls it journalism—because any hit piece against a conservative doesn’t have to be true. So they will continue to get away with it unless we call them out.

LMAO!

 

You just can’t make this stuff up…Sad part is, because these people have no values, they feel no shame when they become a caricature of themselves…And the bubble, in which they live, prevents them from hearing everyone laughing at them…

I am curious if you actually believed this? You had to read it and know that it was a meant to  mislead, if not just a flat lie.

The mainstream media is betting that they won’t….normally the actual articles say the exact opposite of the headlines- and this is done intentionally- just like “Don’t Say Gay”…

Believes it. Will continue to believe it against all evidence to the contrary.  Will not care.

 

A complete waste of time.

The Devils in the details.  But slogans and cute protest signs is all the simpletons can comprehend.  Blame a failing educational system or lazy minds that don't want to think too hard about the details or engage in any type of critical thinking or questioning.  Citizens that ask critical questions and are skeptical of positions or ideas held by "leadership" are threats to the system.  You ask too many intelligent or probing questions or use your intellect to come up with some unique or different perspective they have no answers for, the Ministry of Truth puts your name on the domestic terrorist list.  The last thing they want is a pandemic of critical thinking to break out.

I've read so much of this word garbage that I'd ask any of these idiots specifically which article or amendment to the constitution protects abortion rights?  What's that "truth"?  Ask that question and all you'll get is evasion, deflection, silence, and maybe some gratuitous personal attacks from idiots that have never even read the Constitution.  But they'll all experts purely through their virtue signaling and pissy fits when they don't get their way.  The decision is back at the people's legislature where it belongs.  Get the votes, get something passed.
