ABC’s lead Sunday morning anchor is not letting facts get in the way of a political narrative, even after losing a $16 million lawsuit to President Trump and when bodies from a tragedy are still warm.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, at least 51 innocent souls in Kerr County, Texas, were killed over the fourth of July weekend by flooding from the Guadalupe River. The victims included 14 children at Camp Mystic, an all-girls Christian summer camp.
Many other children who were at Camp Mystic have gone missing and are still unaccounted for.
Trump has signed a “Major Disaster Declaration” for much-needed relief for Kerr County, while Coast Guard officials and Texas first responders have saved over 850 lives so far.
However, Stephanopoulos seized on this tragedy during his Sunday ABC show and saw an opportunity to blame the Trump Administration for deaths from the flooding, alleging they cut funding to the National Weather Service (NWS).
“We’re also learning there were significant staffing shortfalls to the National Weather Services offices in the region,” Stephanopoulos stated.
This would be disturbing news if true. But unsurprisingly, it turns out Stephanopoulos was spreading an easily-debunked lie so that he could make Trump look like a villain again.
Not only was there no staffing shortfall, but there were EXTRA staffers on duty for the storms. What a whopper of a lie.
White House Deputy Secretary Abigail Jackson responded to Stephanopoulos’s tall tale by sharing a story from Wired, which also confirms the National Weather Service and Trump did nothing wrong.
“This is absolute fake news and even Wired knows it,” she wrote.
Is another lawsuit against Stephanopoulos and ABC in the cards? One would advise the Democrat henchman to issue a quick retraction so he does not have to find out.
I guess he wants another lawsuit?
queue Kevin Bacon - "Thank you sir, may I have another?"
Sue him again! This time harder.
Keep punching that little weasel in the face (economically speaking) until he learns it doesn’t pay to lie.
FO.
I say shut down the lying MSM. Sue away!
The filthy bastards known as democrats are insane and desperate. They will try anything to get Trump. This isn’t the last of their lies.
Another cha-ching for President Trump.
Sue that lying piece of garbage, again.
These people on the left are sick.
Evil jerk.
Forecasts aren’t fact.
Forecasters are wrong more than right.
There was a 60% chance of a thunderstorm over me an hour ago. Have clear skies.
Triple the lawsuit damages to $48M against Stepinalloit and ABC.
The warning went out.
Sue the SOB!
He just makes stuff up.
Isn’t that clear by now?
Rosie O’Donnell is corroborating what George reported!🙄
I wonder if his network has put down some parameters so far as the lies he tells and who will ultimately be held financially accountable.
“””I guess he wants another lawsuit?”””
He must want to buy President Trump another wing of the Library.
Makes the libs even dumber.
No this time full apology from sniffaluffaguss, AND, you get him fired!!!!
