On the eve of the opening of the Democratic Convention in Chicago, from which Democrats will launch their final effort to banish into obscurity the most prolific liar that has ever appeared on the American political stage, new evidence of the extent and brazenness of his mendacity has appeared in a posting on Twitter – and the Washington Post article it highlights. Current Harris/Walz and former Clinton staffer Ian Sams’ Twitter post displays five photographs from a hair-on-fire Trump political ad attacking the Biden/Harris on its handling of the border that was posted online shortly after the Orangeutan accepted the Republican nomination, that were actually taken during the Trump administration… and one of them was taken not on the U.S./Mexico border at all but in Bosnia-Herzegovina!

You couldn’t make this up, folks…

And the Washington Post article Sams links to confirms his contention:

WaPo

“The Post analysis found that nearly 20 percent of the 745 ads use footage and photos that are outdated, lack context, or are paired with voice-overs and text that do not accurately depict what is shown on the screen.

Dozens of ads criticize the Biden-Harris administration’s handling of the border, while showing chaotic scenes that were filmed in 2018 under the Trump administration. This video shows Central American migrants in Tijuana, Mexico, rushing the southern border. U.S. Border Patrol agents fired tear gas to repel the crowd, which included young children. The footage was taken during the Trump administration, but in dozens of ads, it is paired with voice-over and text tying it to Democrats. The Post reached out to the political action committees and campaigns that ran the ads shown below. None responded with a comment.

Nearly 30 percent of the ads mention cartels or drugs. MAGA Inc. and the National Republican Congressional Committee, as well as campaign committees supporting candidates in Virginia, South Carolina and Alabama, paid for ads that included visuals of cartels or anonymous gang members that are nearly a decade old; one shows a gang member interviewed by ABC News in El Salvador in 2016; another was from a 2015 book by photographer Adam Hinton that featured photographs he took in 2013 of gang members inside a prison in El Salvador.

The NRCC’s national press secretary, Will Reinert, responded to questions in a statement that didn’t address the outdated images. Instead, the statement pointed to Americans killed by migrants and said: “The Washington Post is running interference for the perpetrators instead of the victims. Pathetic.”

No, Reinert, the Post is attempted to expose your organization and your candidate’s lies, so the American public has all the facts from which to form an opinion, an action you and your fellow Republicans obviously fear.

Mr. Sam’s followers react:


Yup


💯


Should be his campaign slogan.


Yup


😆

If you still engage on Twitter/X I would ask that you go there and repost Ian’s message, so that more voters can see it.

The only way we will ever be free of Trump’s lies is to vote him out of office.

Help keep the site running, consider supporting.

  1. Another day ending with the letter “y” therefore von shitzinpants is lying again.

    Dino, we are not going to be free of shitzi’s lies until A) he is incarcerated and all communication devices are taken away from him and all interviews forbidden or B) he is finally and completely tits up and subjected to the same burial/grave care as Ivana has been subjected to.
