If there’s one thing we know Sen. Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) is very good at, it’s telling a whopper (and having it trotted out as factual by the Democrat-compliant MSM). This is something we saw, for instance, after his infamous threat to conservative Supreme Court Justices in March 2020, which he later laughably claimed was actually a warning to Senate Republicans of the consequences they might face at the ballot box.
We also saw it in the aftermath of the terrifying Delta jet crash that happened at Toronto’s Pearson Airport in mid-February.Â
Though everyone on the plane miraculously survived, Schumer’s nearly-non-existent credibility took another big hit when he proclaimed in a Senate floor speech that “The White House accused us of linking the crash of the Minneapolis flight directly with FAA cuts in staffing. Nothing could be further from the truth.”
Except it absolutely was true, as a tweet from Schumer a couple of days before made clear. “The flight took off from Minneapolis,” he wrote. “The FAA was still responsible for inspecting the aviation equipment, and Trump just let go of FAA safety specialists.”
