Dianne Feinstein is preparing herself for a Joe Biden presidency by honing her Looney Tunes skills. In a Senate hearing on Tuesday the California democrat claimed that a President Trump tweet was directly responsible for an act of violence. What made her a Crazy Joe doppelgänger was that the tweet in question was sent 2 days after the violence she cited. Luckily for her, her mind is so far gone that she’ll never experience the disappointment of learning that Biden ain’t the president.
Tech CEOs from Facebook and Twitter testified before the Senate on Tuesday and got their asses handed to them from Republicans like Texas Senator Texas Cruz for their glaring liberal bias. When it was democrats’ turn to question them, they weren’t interested in censorship but rather why there wasn’t more censorship, especially of President Trump.
Fox News reports:
“On Nov. 7, President Trump tweeted this: ‘I won this election by a lot,'” Feinstein said at Tuesday’s Senate hearing. “The warning label that Twitter has applied to the tweet ‘Official sources may not have called the race when this was tweeted’ … Does that label do enough to prevent the tweet’s harms?”
Feinstein brought up Philadelphia police taking two armed men into custody near the Pennsylvania Convention Center, where ballots were still being counted, on Nov. 5. Philadelphia police said the men, who were armed with guns, had allegedly driven into the city in a Hummer with Virginia license plates.
“I’m really struck by it, that people armed with assault weapons as a product of a tweet could rally outside an election office. It’s really a serious issue that needs to be considered, and there need to be once you signal that … it has to be in some way abated or some way pointed out or restructured on the Internet itself,” said Feinstein.
Am I the only one who sees some timeline issues here? Feinstein cited a November 7 tweet that she says caused “violence” in Philadelphia on November 5. Here’s a handy calendar to demonstrate the problem:
As you can see, Nov. 5 is 2 days before Nov. 7.
I even did some leg work to ensure this is true. Here’s a report on the so-called act of violence in Philadelphia from 6ABC:
Two armed men have been charged after being found near the Philadelphia convention center where an ongoing vote count could decide the presidential election, officials said.
On Thursday, the Philadelphia Police Department received a tip that individuals, armed with firearms, were on their way to the Convention Center area in a silver Hummer truck. (my emphasis)
If you refer to the calendar above, you can see that “Thursday” was November 5th.
Now here’s Trump’s tweet that Feinstein was referencing as the catalyst for violence:
I WON THIS ELECTION, BY A LOT!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 7, 2020
Please note that Trump posted this tweet on November 7th.
The only way Trump’s tweet inspired two guys to go to Philadelphia with guns 2 days earlier is if they or the President had mastered the travel. The only way two guys legally carrying weapons in their personal vehicle is an act of violence is if democrats are in charge and deny people their 2nd Amendment rights.
Republican Mike Lee missed Feinstein’s timeline problem, but he still managed to lay down this sick burn:
“I’d like to note that as far as the president’s election and how they turned out inciting violence, I’d like to point out that the only violence I’m aware of has occurred in connection with Antifa, Antifa’s response to pro-Trump peaceful rally attenders,” said Lee.
Democrats have been calling President Trump “Literal Hitler” for the past 4 years but it’s been so overused that it’s lost any impact. Maybe Feinstein is trying to get the edge back by calling him “Literal Time Traveling Hitler.” Either that or she’s just as senile as Joe Biden.
