Fiorina lies

Carly Fiorina demonstrates a disturbing pattern of embellishments and outright lying. Google “Fiorina lies” to find credible reports.

Ms. Fiorina didn’t rise from secretary to CEO. Her father was the dean of Duke Law School, and a top Richard Nixon adviser.

The Securities and Exchange Commission didn’t perform an investigation that cleared her of any knowledge about Hewlett-Packard violating the Iran embargo when she was CEO.

Politifact, the Washington Post and other credible media reported the videos released by the misleadingly named Center for Medical Progress (CMP), which has no doctors or medical scientist on staff, were heavily edited for maximum discrediting effect.

The fetus shown in the videos was stock footage edited in by CMP. CMP took an interview with a woman identified as a former tissue-procurement technician for StemExpress LLC, Holly O’Donnell, talking about what she saw. CMP edited the fetus video onto that interview to further CMP’s anti-abortion agenda intending to defund and ultimately destroy Planned Parenthood.

Groups like CMP, work in tandem with Republican Congress members manufacturing misinformation for repetition in the media echo chamber to manipulate the low-information conspiracy-prone voters, discredit government officials and institutions, gum up and ultimately shut down the government to turn Americans against them. Take heed!
