‘This is FALSE’: Sharyl Attkisson dismantles Kamala Harris and Elizabeth Warren’s Michael Brown claims in fact-filled thread
Kamala Harris and Elizabeth Warren both took it upon themselves to push an absolutely divisive and possibly dangerous lie. Both Democrats claimed Michael Brown was ‘murdered’ by a white cop … we suppose they think if it worked for Obama it will work for them.
And per usual, the media, for the most part, has been more than willing to look the other way which Brit Hume was good enough to call out.
Sharyl Attkisson took it a step further and fact-checked the snot outta Harris and Warren’s claim.
This is good.
1. With respect, this is false -- and a persistent misconception. The Obama Justice Dept. ultimately determined Brown was *not* "murdered" and "likely did not have his hands up" when shot. The Obama Justice Dept. declined to charge the officer with anything. twitter.com/ewarren/status…

We love how she says, ‘With respect.’
She’s so good at this.
2. The Obama Justice Dept. ultimately ruled that many witnesses who had claimed in the media (without challenge) that Brown's hands were up-- and other claims-- were "not reliable."
417 people are talking about this
In other words, they lied.
3. The Obama Justice Dept. determined that Brown likely *did* reach into the police vehicle and grab the police officer. There was evidence backing that up, while there was no evidence backing the claim that Wilson grabbed Brown.

Harris and Warren should both pay attention since this was Obama’s DOJ who drew these conclusions.
4. The Obama Justice Dept. ruled that the officer appeared to fire at Brown in self-defense.
396 people are talking about this
So not murder.
5. The Obama Justice Dept. ruled that Brown was apparently charging at the police officer when Brown was shot.
388 people are talking about this
Still not murder.
6. It's understandable that so many don't know these details because they were not well reported in the press when the Obama Justice Dept. report came out a yr later. However, it could be harmful to all to perpetuate misinformation.

Not reported in the press … sorta like how they aren’t reporting on Warren and Harris lying now.
7. The Washington Post *did* headline the fact that the Obama Justice Dept. determined Brown's hands were probably not raised, after all. washingtonpost.com/news/post-nati…
382 people are talking about this
Hands up don’t shoot was a lie.
But we digress.
8. This was the Obama Justice Dept's final conclusion supporting the police officer's account versus the narrative that was carried on the news and sparked protests.
412 people are talking about this
Cannot support a criminal prosecution.
10. The Michael Brown/Ferguson case, based on the Obama Justice Dept. report, is more an example of irresponsible rhetoric and unchallenged media narratives that ruined the life of a policeman who-- according to the Obama Justice Dept.-- was attacked and did nothing wrong.
197 people are talking about this
Irresponsible rhetoric, sorta like two Democratic candidates running for president lying about Brown even now.
11. You can read the Obama Justice Dept. report on Michael Brown and Ferguson for yourself here -- and make up your own mind. justice.gov/sites/default/…

Sharyl just decimated both of these Democrats and it’s a BEAUTIFUL thing.
Right? We’re not holding our breath.
