And now Bricker has flat out lied in GD. I can’t say that there, but I will here.

This is an outright lie. He deliberately creates the narrative that the Democrats removed the Special Prosecutor due to Ken Star. He is selectively ignoring facts to create a false narrative.

And, like a lawyer creating a false narrative for cross, deliberately leaving out things and hoping the other side doesn’t catch it, he uses it for his summation:

> [@](#):
>
> So I’d suggest that the heart of your complaint is: “Other people don’t share my opinion about how important it is to get rid of this president!”

That’s flat out making up bullshit to attack someone. The original question says nothing at all like this. It’s creating a narrative that the OP is either an idiot or a liar.

This is why I have my problem with **Bricker** ’s integrity. Someone with integrity does not use these manipulative tricks. They are lying.
