Episode notes
Dox Graphic Was A 'Do Not Hit' Warning
- The 'hit list' circulated in Portland was actually labeled a 'do not hit' list and aimed to discourage violence while calling out provocateurs.
- Media amplified misleading frames calling it a 'wanted' or 'hit' list to stoke panic.
Inflated 'Percent Rise' Lacks Evidence
- The administration's huge percentage claims about assaults on ICE lacked public data and resisted congressional requests for sources.
- Journalists and lawmakers could not reproduce the numbers and called them unsubstantiated.
Record False Claims For The Historical Record
- Document and archive false official claims now so history records them accurately.
- Preserve records because reporting 'unsubstantiated' later won't erase the damage of policy-based lies.
