You're right. This article that claims it's setting the record straight is misinformation. Gohmert did not say the raid occurred, he actually said that everyone needs to calm down (words to that effect) because there was all kinds of information flying around that hadn't been verified - he said there's even a tweet out there saying blah blah raid in Germany. Said nothing more on the subject.
IT IS CORRECT that scytl.com is now blocking en-masse attempted access from the USA.
