Prominent journalists, liberals fall for hoax claiming Gov. Abbott paid Uvalde victims' families for photo-ops

Left-wing activists and prominent journalists that write for liberal publications spread a hoax on Thursday that Texas Governor Greg Abbott paid the families of the Uvalde, Texas shooting massacre victims for photo ops.

The shocking false claims came from the Twitter account @MyCancerJourne3, which stated that following the Robb Elementary School mass shooting, a representative for Governor Abbott showed up to his residence and attempted to coerce his family. The post has since gone viral.

"Uvalde Update: We were finally able to see my living nephews body to confirm identity. Shot in the face. While leaving to return home we were followed by what was assumed to be media, which win we do not wish to speak during this time. 4 mins after returning home a knock on the door. It's a representative for Gov Greg Abbott. He informed us he's willing to pay us to stand with the Gov and say we don't need stronger gun laws. To which almost got this clown hurt. He was asked to leave and said that if we speak about this conversation we will be facing charges and possibly worse," the account alleged. "We responded with f*ck you, try me and find out. Then we were told people get hurt and disappear all the time. F*ck Greg Abbott and this harassment while we all mourn," they concluded.

Yup. They so desperately WANT it to be true, that it must be.

I’ve said it before: liberals are desperately unserious people. They are also emotionally stunted. I used to think we simply disagreed. But I’ve been on the receiving end of irrational, unreasonable and delusional leftists so often that I simply don’t believe that anymore.

Liberals by nature have a very high and false sense of Self-righteousness and superiority ....So therefor when their “egos” are so attached to their beliefs that even when 1 small part their position fails....their egos and self-worth goes with it...

Hence they become irrational, unreasonable and delusional ..

Does that about sum it up??

These garbage rat “reporters” know the story is false and don’t care. A trash twitter account from an unverified user is a suitable source to push their damn agenda.

And these same “journalists” whine when we call them the enemy of the people.

The left publishes a lie. Leftists all over repeat the lie. The truth is found out and appears on 1 or 2 news sources and is ignored by the mainstream media. Years later, when the public has forgotten and it’s not possible to verify anything any longer, leftists are quoting the fabricated story as if it had been true.

They always do it this way.

Liberals will believe ANYTHING as long as it fits their agenda. I had a co-worker who, in 2008, would send me all kinds of links to stories about Sarah Palin, most of the links were to stories in The Onion and other satire sites. When I would email her back and tell her that these weren’t true and were satire, she responded with “I don’t care, it sounds like something she’d say or do, so I believe them.”
