This claim:
“When we make mistakes, we acknowledge them in public and correct them. To see also : Solvang Auto Insurance Agent Reports Top Reasons to Buy Business Auto Insurance.”
— A.G. Sulzberger, NY Times editor, Tuesday
We say: Hmm. Perhaps the Times’ series of fake stories about Russian collusion, its dismissal of The Post’s 100% true Hunter Biden laptop scoops, its “1619 Project” and its many other works of fiction presented as facts. weren’t actually “errors” – but deliberate misinfo. After all, most were left uncorrected, or at best received muted “clarifications” long after the fact. Or maybe Sulzberger has plenty.
This charge:
“If you live in one of those [black] neighborhoods…you pay more for your [car] insurance. Read also : A woman calling NBC 6 responds after car insurance doesn’t pay off. No basis for that…other than you’re black.
We say: Sorry, Mr. President. Insurers charge based on factors such as your age, driving record and losses in your neighborhood. Not skin color. If you live in a high-loss area, expect to pay more whether you’re black or white.
This tweet:
I am outraged that the @StateDept is going ahead with plans to build the US Embassy in Jerusalem on land stolen from Palestinians. In doing so, the United States is complicit in the illegal confiscation of Palestinian property.

We say, “Land stolen from the Palestinians? Please. Tlaib echoes dubious claims by Rashid Khalidi (once a PLO spokesman) that his family land is now being considered for the US embassy in Jerusalem. Still, the State Department hasn’t even made a decision on a location and says a potential site’s history will be considered. Moreover, if Khalidi’s family really has a claim to the land, he can pursue it in court, as other Palestinians have done.
This warning:
“[The broadcasts] are boiling the oceans, creating…rain bombs…and causing these waves of refugees.
We say, will this guy ever drop his climate change hype? No ocean boils. Migrants do not flee weather disasters, but bad governments and weak economies. Gore also warned that greenhouse gases are trapping the same heat as Hiroshima’s 600,000 atomic bombs every day. And he compared climate change to 9/11, the Battle of the Bulge, Dunkirk and more. However, these events followed each other for at most a few weeks; Gore has been ranting for almost three decades.
This tweet:
The sooner the DOJ can exonerate President Biden of any wrongdoing, the sooner it can focus on safeguarding the rule of law and our democracy by indicting Trump. We are well over that deadline.
We say: Poor Meathead. His Trump Derangement Syndrome has really become acute. He now suggests that we avoid raiding Biden’s home or even reviewing any wrongdoing on documents found there and at the Biden Penn Center and simply “cleaning it up.” Then quickly “indict” former President Donald Trump – apparently no need for an investigation or criminal evidence there either. This is Reiner’s idea of the “rule of law”. Obviously, he needs help fast.
