his is EXACTLY how you expose these frauds…
“Now, while [Elon Musk] was boosting those lies about USAID and he was stopping money going for say things such as Head Start, somehow the only money that didn’t stop was the money to him and his organizations,” Crockett said during a Congressional hearing.
“Now, I don’t know how you can have him be the watchdog as well as the guy that is literally living off the government,” she continued. “If we want to talk about government welfare it looks like Elon Musk because it’s my understanding that just yesterday a new contract was approved for approximately $300 million for Elon Musk.”
“So listen, I just want y’all to be honest. You want to sit here. You want to lie because so often we here ‘well you know yeah we did lie’,” said Crockett.
“In fact he admitted that he lied when he was in the Oval Office yesterday but if it’s a lie that will get you into office such as saying ‘I know nothing about Project 2025,’ yet on day one you literally do everything that you can to implement it — including making sure that you put, say, one of the main architects of Project 2025 over the OMB — it’s okay so long as you get the power that you seek.”
Musk admitted yesterday that the White House’s absurd claim that DOGE had uncovered a federal plan to spend $50 million on condoms for Gaza was untrue.
“Some of the things that I say will be incorrect, and should be corrected,” said Musk. “So, nobody’s going to bat a thousand. I mean, any —you know, we will make mistakes, but we’ll act quickly to correct any mistakes.”
Of course, Musk and Trump do not care about the truth or about issuing corrections. By the time the facts comes out, their lies have spread throughout the right-wing media sphere and the damage is done. They lie again and again and before the damage is even tallied up they move on to the next lie. It’s a disinformation avalanche strategy.
“The problem is that the game is going to be on the American people and when I say the American people I mean all of us,” said Congresswoman Crockett. “Unfortunately, I am also stuck in the Twilight Zone because of the lies that were allowed to be propagated just like when you’re talking about vaccines and all this nonsense.”
“Right now in my state of Texas there is an outbreak of measles! And what they are finding is that because there’s been so much disinformation about vaccines that kids are sick with measles that they did not have to have if they just trusted doctors and experts instead of randoms online,” she added.
