#JDVance’s false claim that ‘#GreenEnergy scam’ ships jobs to China
…one of Vance’s consistent claims is that VP #KamalaHarris shipped jobs to China by casting the tiebreaking vote in 2022 in the Senate for the #InflationReductionAct, a bill that included $370B in #climate & #energy funding to combat #ClimateChange.
…Vance’s claims make little sense. The #IRA was designed to foster #green #manufacturing #jobs IN the #UnitedStates.

#Trump repeats false claim that 'nobody was killed' during Capitol #Insurrection he incited
During a campaign event today in Howell, Michigan, Trump repeated the #lie that no one died on #Jan6, 2021, during the Capitol #siege by his supporters.
Trump attempted to compare the #Jan6 insurrection w/the racial justice protests that took place across the country in the wake of George Floyd's death in 2020.

#Trump posted a photo of himself holding up a picture claiming to show #KilmarAbregoGarcia’s tattoos that prove he’s MS-13.
The picture he’s holding has obviously been digitally altered to add the characters MS-13.
The source of this BS is a neo-Nazi X user who claims the tattoos are code for “MS-13.”
This is why you try people in court of #law & not on social media.

🤣…Though #Trump appears to support #AI, that does not mean AI supports him….
To counter any inadvertent bias or systemic failures, we asked each of 5 leading AI models — #OpenAI’s #ChatGPT; #Anthropic’s #Claude; X/ #xAI’s #Grok; #Google’s #Gemini; & #Perplexity — to verify Trump’s most oft-repeated claims or assertions.…
AI discredited ALL the Trump claims we presented, fact-checking him with startling accuracy & objective rigor.
