Report: Ex-Senate Secretary Spread George Soros Conspiracy Theory About Migrant Caravan
Source: The Daily Beast
Former Secretary of the U.S. Senate Kelly Johnston on Monday spread a conspiracy theory alleging that philanthropist George Soros company Open Society planned the caravan of migrants heading to the borderincluding where they defecateaccording to a tweet from New York Times reporter Kenneth Vogel. On Monday night, Johnston, who now works as the vice president of government affairs for Campbell Soup, reportedly tweeted a photo of the caravan alongside the caption: See those vans on the right? What you dont see are the troop carriers and the rail cars taking them north. @OpenSociety planned and is executing this, including where they defecate. And they have an army of American immigration lawyers waiting at the border. There is no evidence to support any of Johnstons claims. Campbell Soup denied responsibility for Johnstons comments, telling Vogel that The opinions Mr. Johnston expresses on Twitter are his individual views & do not represent the position of @CampbellSoupCo. Johnston has since deleted his Twitter account.

Here's this vicious political propagandist's sour little face:
Kelly Johnston: If he had to stick to the truth, he'd have so little to say.

(2,227 posts)it was by republicans, who would have spread info about a "caravan" about to form, and that as many as possible should take advantage of it, along with places, times, etc.
The caravan is the absolute best optic turdface could have to air, right before the midterm election.
Anytime they accuse us of doing something, it is to muddy the waters so THEY won't be seen doing what they have accused us of doing.
They have done this over and over again.

If its an orchestrated drama it sure as heck isnt our side doing it. The timing is rather suspect, imho..... I dunno. There was a time when arms for hostages would have seemed like a far fetched idea.
