Nolte: PolitiFact Finally Admits Brian Sicknick Not Killed by Fire Extinguisher
Breitbart ^ | 23 Feb 2021 | JOHN NOLTE

Posted on 02/23/2021 12:43:59 PM PST by conservative98

The far-left PolitiFact, a fake fact-checking site run by the far-left Poynter Institute, waited until this week, long after former President Trump’s impeachment trial was over, to finally admit Capitol Police officer Brian Sicknick was not beaten to death with a fire extinguisher by a Trump supporter.

Although what I call “the fire extinguisher hoax” has been floating around since the Capitol Hill riot on January 6… Although, as far back as January 8, ProPublica reported that Sicknick texted his brother after the riot to tell him he was in “good shape…” Although far-left CNNLOL reported all the way back on February 4 that the fire extinguisher beating story was a hoax… Although the far-left New York Times retracted its false fire extinguisher report on February 15… Despite all this, the utterly useless and dishonest PolitiFact waited until this week to finally admit the fire extinguisher story is a hoax.

The truth is that we do not know why Sicknick died the day after the riot, but we do know he was not beaten to death with a fire extinguisher. Some believe pepper spray may have contributed to his untimely death or that he had some kind of stroke.

Benjamin Philips, a Trump supporter, died of a stroke during the riot. Kevin Greeson, who was also a Trump supporter, died of a heart attack at the riot.

Unfortunately, excitement can bring about a stroke or heart attack.

Back in 2012, a 70-year-old woman died of cardiac arrest after then-President Obama dropped by her diner for breakfast.

The whole narrative is coming apart. Good thing they rushed thru the impeachment before the facts emerged.

The lie is now embedded in the (ha) “brains” of the fools.

The reprobates will continue to believe all the lies of the MSM.

The myth remains deeply embedded inside millions of minds.
Sort of like the ‘Hand up! Don’t Shoot!!” myth.

There is no lie that Rat Party Headquarters won't tell...and no law that they won't break. Today's Rat Party is truly the party of Saul Alinsky...Bill Ayers...and the Red Guards.

The impeachment was “highly successful” by any measure used by the Democrat ?Socialists? in their push to “derecognize” Donald J. Trump.

In their eyes, Mission Accomplished.

Only, what is that Spectre arising from Mar-a-Lago in Florida?

I still see a talking head on FOX, Juan Williams, spouting off about the murder of Sicknick by Trump supporters.

My deepest sympathies for the family of U.S. Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick. Officer Sicknick was killed defending our Capitol from the violent mob on January 6. Please keep Brian and his family in your prayers.— Liz Cheney (@Liz_Cheney) January 8, 2021

Today we pay tribute to the life, courage and sacrifice of @CapitolPolice Officer Brian Sicknick.

Officer Sicknick is an American hero who was tragically killed in the line of duty while defending democracy on January 6th. Please join me in continuing to pray for his family. pic.twitter.com/XdRzaOJw6b— Rep. Liz Cheney (@RepLizCheney) February 3, 2021

-------------------------

According to his brother, Officer Sicknick died from a stroke which stemmed from a blood clot. He died the day AFTER the Capitol breach.
The New York Times made up the story about him being beaten to death by a fire extinguisher.
It was a literal media hoax to help Democrats. https://t.co/rhGLcgVQox— Candace Owens (@RealCandaceO) February 17, 2021

A few years ago Politifact finally gave the “hands up don’t shoot” narrative their highest pants on fire rating. More than can be said for the crazy cat lady who runs Snopes.

Dems and Reps like Cheney and Romney.

These people are the most vile pig under the sun to lie about this yet the murder of a Trump supporter goes unchecked.

Why didn’t his family get in front of this before now??

They don’t care, it’s a tool to push an agenda and narrative for the Marxists.
