AAP FactCheck - Opposition Leader Peter Dutton is falsely claiming that Labor was handed a balanced budget when the Albanese government came to power in May 2022.
The Treasury recorded a deficit of more than $130 billion for the 2020/21 financial year in its pre-election economic and fiscal outlook (PEFO), published just weeks before the May 2022 vote.

As a journalist, I have to do the fake check on texts pretty often nowadays. The fact check ... no, well, the check if they have been written by humans or #AI Here are my three favorite tools:

It’s *possible* as some are saying that whoever altered the photo did so to explain the tattoos.
1. If that is the case, I doubt #Trump realized it.
2. MS-13 is notorious for boldly displaying the gang’s name in their tats. They don’t use code.
3. The neo-Nazi that came up w/this tattoo theory claims the cross & the skull are covering what used to be a 1 & a 3. That skull for sure was not a 3.
#Trump posted a photo of himself holding up a picture claiming to show #KilmarAbregoGarcia’s tattoos that prove he’s MS-13.
The picture he’s holding has obviously been digitally altered to add the characters MS-13.
The source of this BS is a neo-Nazi X user who claims the tattoos are code for “MS-13.”
This is why you try people in court of #law & not on social media.

#PierrePoilievre and his views about #nazis and #nazism.
No, Pierre. You are wrong. National socialists were as socialist as the Democratic People's Republic of Korea is democratic.

I watched
as #Trump LIED on & on & on & on & on…in the Oval Office *presser* today [he has dictated that only friendly aka #propagandist #news outlets are allowed in the WH #PressPool]
claimed that egg prices & grocery prices in general are hugely down.
Actual facts:
The #price of #eggs jumped nearly 6% Feb to March
Yeah that’s data from the #UnitedStates #FederalReserve.
Never trust Bullshit Barbie.
Believe the evidence of your eyes and ears.
Question everything.
#FactCheck everything.
#Resist #Orwellian #Dystopia.
Interesting note:
When #DOJ released the Gang Field Interview Sheet in the #KilmarAbregoGarcia case, they redacted the name of the cop...the one who was suspended & then indicted for serious professional misconduct. But Sargent & TNR obtained the GFIS & confirm that the name is under the first redaction bar.
#JDVance’s solutions rest on a rigid worldview that does not permit migrants' life circumstances, or the passage of time, or their integration into US life to impact our moral deliberations. His reflect a historically false vision of American identity & yield awful real-world outcomes.
That is Greg Sargent’s response to JD’s lies & oversimplifications.

#JDVance’s #immigration solutions treat complex problems w/cartoonishly simplistic thinking & squander huge amounts of enforcement resources for no real gain. Ours address the situation’s complexities & seek to manage them in the national interest.

Many of us would accept codifying real restrictions on asylum, because the system *has* become unmanageable, along w/scaled up resources for processing + broader legal pathways for entry to make migration more orderly. That's something even some Republicans & some of their constituencies want.

#JDVance is correct [for once]: Liberals don't want to deport most longtime undocumented residents who've committed no serious crimes. We say most should instead get a qualified path to legalization, packaged with other reforms that would make the system function better.
We are very open about this!

Finally, #JDVance’s big “gotcha” is his claim that *the left* doesn’t want us to deport all who came illegally. What do we propose instead, he asks?
This deceptively frames the choice as *only* between
1) leaving all undocumented immigrants in that status here forever; &
2) deporting them all.

#JDVance keeps saying #KilmarAbregoGarcia already had #DueProcess. But JD's govt illegally defied the ruling yielded by this process, which gave KAG qualified protected status.
It is the act of JD’s govt in violation of that, IRRESPECTIVE of anything KAG did/didn’t do, that calls for due process.
