Recent video purportedly showing a man destroying ballots marked for Trump is a disinformation campaign, say officials
Russian actors were behind a viral video falsely showing mail-in ballots for Donald Trump being destroyed in the swing state of Pennsylvania, US officials said on Friday, amid heightened alert over foreign influence operations targeting the upcoming election.
The video, which garnered millions of views on platforms such as the Elon Musk-owned X, purports to show a man sorting through mail-in ballots from the state’s Bucks county and ripping up those cast for the former president.
Oh you mean US officials that are in office during the Biden administration?
Yeah, Magoos are really going to believe that one. They might as well have said it was Santa…
Reality doesn’t matter. It’s really a fucking shame these fucking asshole propagandists know this, the only thing that matters is saying a thing happened, that’s it. They say it happened then it happened, it doesn’t matter what official says what after. The thing was said and so it’s “real.” Any evidence to refute after is just a “lie.”
