Proof Tories Lied About Their 'Inquiry Vote'

m.youtube.com/watch?v=o4qdc9M0

So once again, the victims of these horrific crimes are just a political tool for the far right to use for their own selfish needs. They don't care about them. The #Tories sat on the findings for years, doing nothing. They don't care about protecting kids. They care about money and power, nothing more. You mean nothing to them. Yaxley-lennon supports abusers. #FarRightLies #RightWingLies #UKPolitics

Canada's aspiring leader says the country is bankrupt, so we can't afford to meet NATO spending commitments, even though he's also committed to more defence spending, even though he's also committed to eliminating Canada's debt. Canada has consistently had the lowest dept to GDP ratio of all G7 nations.

Musk has enabled this. Right-wingers routinely lie to rile up the base, vilify people, and feed them conspiracy theories about who to hate and blame!

"LIES ABOUT REP. KATIE PORTER reached millions of Twitter users this week, as the California Democrat’s remarks about how the platform has been used to falsely label LGBTQ+ people as pedophiles were misleadingly edited and captioned in tweets by influential right-wing activists.

The deceptive clips of Porter’s remarks, accompanied by false claims that she had condoned pedophilia, were viewed more than 2.2 million times on Twitter after being shared by right-wing activist accounts, including Chaya Raichik’s Libs of TikTok and Jaimee Michell’s Gays Against Groomers.

Those video clips were created by Porter’s political enemies, who made it seem as if Porter, at a Congressional oversight hearing on Wednesday, had argued that pedophilia was not a crime but an identity.

Transcripts and video of Porter’s complete remarks make it clear that she was saying something entirely different — namely, that right-wing activists have inspired hatred of LGBTQ+ Americans in tweets falsely accusing them of being pedophiles, or so-called groomers."
