Blinken and Romney. name a more trustworthy duo!

I don't trust either of them, but why would they lie about wanting to suppress support for Palestine? And if you don't believe me, the State Department has them on record saying as much: https://www.state.gov/secretary-antony-j-blinken-at-mccain-institutes-2024-sedona-forum-keynote-conversation-with-senator-mitt-romney/

SENATOR ROMNEY: A small parenthetical point, which is some wonder why there was such overwhelming support for us to shut down potentially TikTok or other entities of that nature. If you look at the postings on TikTok and the number of mentions of Palestinians relative to other social media sites, it’s overwhelmingly so among TikTok broadcasts. So I’d note that’s of real interest, and the President will get the chance to make action in that regard.

if your only evidence is two liars that are on the record lying about anything, anything in the record from them can never be considered the truth.

liars lie, regardless of if they tell the truth or not.
