Gregory Bovino was called out by a judge only two days earlier for lying about being assaulted by a protester
A border patrol chief claimed on Saturday that his agents came under fire in Chicago while conducting immigration enforcement operations, just two days after a federal judge said that he had lied to her about having been struck by a rock during a previous confrontation with protesters in the city.
Gregory Bovino, the border patrol chief and frequent Fox News guest who has become the face of the Trump administration’s mass deportation efforts, said on social media that his agents had been “shot at”, and subjected to “vehicular assaults, physical assaults, impeding, violent mobs, vehicular blockades”, for a number of hours.
It is safe to say at this point that any claims made by ICE or really anyone in Trump’s administration are lies unless accompanied by evidence.
I wouldn’t believe their evidence either.
And we knew the administration loves AI images too. So it’s bad.
That has been true since the beginning of Trump’s first term and the lying has only increased in severity.
Sort of. You used to be able to trust some people not to flat out lie for him, but now there’s no one in his orbit who will not just flat out make up lies. They don’t even care that they are easily proven to be lies either.
There was not reason to trust the people who didn’t flat out lie for him either, since they tended to be the weaseliest of weasels.
