With everything the left has already been claiming about the Trump Administration, it is surprising to see that they have not all keeled over from heart attacks. But, they keep on going. In yet another display of leftist media’s desire to spread false information, the following headlines went viral from multiple “news” sites:
Sources: Trump executive order allowing anti-LGBTQ discrimination is coming soon
White House won’t deny Trump will sign anti-LGBT order
Well, once again, NONE OF IT IS TRUE.
Liberal hack ‘journalists’, such as MIC’s race baiting identarian Gabe Gonzalez whose gems have previously included things like “if you voted for Trump you’re a racist!” were quick to run with this story:
This evening, after the White House was bombarded with questions that resulted from the fake news story that LGBT protections would be revoked, they issued this statement via the New York Times:
President Trump continues to be respectful and supportive of L.G.B.T.Q. rights, just as he was throughout the election,” the statement said. “The president is proud to have been the first ever G.O.P. nominee to mention the L.G.B.T.Q. community in his nomination acceptance speech, pledging then to protect the community from violence and oppression.
The decision to keep the order, the statement added, was Mr. Trump’s. It uses stronger language than any Republican president has before in favor of equal legal protections for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people, though that is not likely to quiet Mr. Trump’s critics on the left.
I shared this story with Mr. Gonzalez and asked him to issue a correction/retraction. His response was as follows: “You thrive on tearing others down. You’re derivative in the worst way. You’re utter trash. And I’m blocking you.” He then blocked me, without issuing any sort of retraction or correction. It’s hilarious how the left keeps trying to scare the public, and when they are proven wrong, they shout names and block out the truth.
As Town Hall editor, and all around “Great” Guy Benson noted on Twitter:
As reported previously by TGP, Donald Trump has had a consistently pro-gay record stretching back to 2000. Similarly, just last week the LGBT left went into full panic mode when the Trump Administration took down the LGBT White House page (First off… I can guarantee gay people are doing other things on the internet than visiting the LGBT White House Page. Second, how about the White House page represents *ALL AMERICANS* and we don’t subdivide it?).
Right now liberals seem to be throwing as much fake news at everyone as possible, with the hope that something sticks. It’s not going to stick, the public has gotten wiser, and trust of MSM/Liberal media is at an all time low. 2017 is going to involve a lot of eye-rolling at the liberal outrage machine.
