M.D. Kittle writes for the Federalist about the political left’s top whoppers of the year.
If it felt like 2025 was just one big psyop orchestrated by the Democrat Party and its accomplice media stooges, that’s because in many ways, it was.
Learning nothing from the political and ratings beatings they took in 2024, the left and its corporate media allies doubled down on twisting the truth during the first year of Trump 2.0. …
… 1. The ‘Maryland Man’
Illegal immigrant Kilmar Abrego Garcia has allegedly made a career out of smuggling fellow illegal aliens. Law enforcement officials in 2019 found him with “rolls of cash and drugs,” hanging out with members of the vicious MS-13 gang, as the Department of Homeland Security detailed. Abrego Garcia’s wife sought a protective order against him and said he physically abused her.
But when the Trump administration deported the criminal illegal immigrant, Abrego Garcia was transformed into a “Maryland man” by shameless liars like Maryland Sen. Chris Van Hollen. …
… 2. Lies About ICE
Liberals and their corporate media water-carriers have been caught in myriad lies about Immigration & Customs Enforcement operations. As The Federalist’s Jordan Boyd reported in tracking the lies Dems and the media are peddling to demonize ICE, CBS News did some serious spinning. The network news outlet reported a U.S. citizen was “forcibly removed from her car” and temporarily held in custody. CBS had to acknowledge that the woman was detained after she “refused to present her driver’s license and roll down her window when stopped.” And DHS clarified that she “was driving her illegal alien boyfriend’s car (who had been arrested prior)” and “refused to comply with law enforcement’s repeated lawful orders to identify herself.” …
… 3. ‘Kidnapping People’
Sadly, law enforcement in sanctuary cities have gotten in on the ICE lies. As Boyd reported, Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara urged residents to call 911 on “masked” people who “may be kidnapping people.” In other words, call the cops on ICE agents who are enforcing federal law.
