Overnight and into late morning on Trashpitter the hashtag #DeathSantis after a car tragically crashed into a Pride parade in Florida. Reporters and mega-follower blue checks called it a terror attack and blamed Ron DeSantis for it among others. They even said the driver was “aiming” for Debbie Wasserman Schultz’s car.
The hysteria was massive.
But it was just a SHORT amount of time after the accident that police SAID it was an accident and not intentional, despite the DEMOCRAT mayor calling it a terror attack.
BREAKING: At least 2 people have been hit by a truck at the beginning of the @WiltonManorsCty #Pride parade. @delarosaWPLG was only yards away at the time. He spoke with @DeanTrantalis. @WPLGLocal10 pic.twitter.com/CRRmGz0a12

And then the Fort Lauderdale Gay Men’s Chorus told press and anyone else who would bother to listen that the driver in the tragic accident was one of their members, as were some of the people he hit.
UPDATE: President of the Ft Lauderdale Gay Men’s Chorus says they believe this was a tragic accident and confirm the driver was a member of their group. @WPLGLocal10 pic.twitter.com/RjvcCTE6cl

The head of the Gay Men’s Chorus said the driver was apart of the Chorus and the person killed was from the chorus as well. It would appear now an accident at this point. First reporting lacked clarity. pic.twitter.com/nY1nX5gG5X

He was a parade PARTICIPANT.
Fort Lauderdale DEMOCRAT mayor Dean Trantalis and the collective left wing, blue check, media and media-adjacent Twitter are ALL to blame. But don’t expect BIG apologies or corrections. Just little ones.
Over 1,200 retweets for the initial false information.

The thread linked here was okay, though.
You know, Brian Stelter and the rest of CNN (and libs everywhere all day every day) never STOP whimpering about “disinformation.” But they are the MAIN source of it.
Disgusting.
