UPDATE: The Washington Post has now admitted to publishing four false statements against me and has officially retracted them. More details in this thread. https://t.co/010wYJQkyW — PolitiTweet.org

Let this serve as a warning to others: if you make false claims against me, I will vigorously defend my reputation and relentlessly attack yours in response. I have a large platform and an aggressive personality—and can force the largest media organizations into submission. — PolitiTweet.org

I have now forced the Washington Post to retract multiple major claims made against me by the paper's two veteran education reporters, @laurameckler and @valeriestrauss. This is a pattern that suggests a deeper rot at the newspaper. Democracy dies when the media lies. — PolitiTweet.org

Christopher F. Rufo ⚔️ @realchrisrufo

In the face of this rebuke from her editors, Strauss remained defiant. She denied bias and insisted that "the allegation that The Washington Post is trying to destroy your reputation is false" —which, if we take her at her word, suggests, at minimum, gross incompetence. — PolitiTweet.org

Christopher F. Rufo ⚔️ @realchrisrufo

WINNING: The Washington Post's latest hit piece against me has collapsed. Education editor Adam Kushner admits to publishing four false statements about my work and has officially retracted them. This is a supreme embarrassment for the newspaper and reporter @valeriestrauss. https://t.co/D6V1Qs2TF6 — PolitiTweet.org

I have reached out to the editors at the paper requesting corrections to these errors. I believe that WaPo subscriptions have plummeted in recent years because the public is tired of the paper's sloppiness, inaccuracies, and falsehoods. Democracy dies when the media lies. — PolitiTweet.org

Christopher F. Rufo ⚔️ @realchrisrufo

Last time the WaPo came after me, the paper eventually admitted to fabricating a timeline, retracted or added six full paragraphs, reversed a key claim, and failed to produce evidence of a falsified quotation. Extremely embarrassing for them. https://t.co/DnziQZR2O5 — PolitiTweet.org

Christopher F. Rufo ⚔️ @realchrisrufo

Lie #5. The WaPo also manages to lie about my work on the DeSantis Stop WOKE Act. Again, it's likely that Strauss simply did not read the law—if she had, she would have known that her reporting here is not true. https://t.co/989rBx1ylX — PolitiTweet.org

Christopher F. Rufo ⚔️ @realchrisrufo

Lie #4. The WaPo brazenly fabricates the timeline of events surrounding my work with President Trump on the anti-CRT executive order. Strauss did not bother to look up the dates at all—she went with her own fiction. https://t.co/OeeF2b19e7 — PolitiTweet.org

Lie #3. The WaPo flat-out lies about Trump's anti-CRT executive order. It's likely that Strauss never bothered to read it—if she had, she would have easily understood that her claim here is false. https://t.co/4MqC2kCgIn — PolitiTweet.org

Christopher F. Rufo ⚔️ @realchrisrufo

Lie #2. The WaPo invents ideas and then attributes them to me with no evidence or citations. Strauss puts words in my mouth and then reports them as if they were facts. Very dishonest. https://t.co/3LROBk3C5R — PolitiTweet.org

Christopher F. Rufo ⚔️ @realchrisrufo

@valeriestrauss This song is really bad. But sadly, your reporting is much, much worse. You absolute hack. https://t.co/YtWAYmXIeW — PolitiTweet.org

Christopher F. Rufo ⚔️ @realchrisrufo

One of the reasons that the Washington Post recently announced large-scale layoffs is that their reporting is partisan, sloppy, dishonest, and often outright false. The New York Times might be left-wing, but at least it's a serious paper. WaPo is bush league in comparison. — PolitiTweet.org

Christopher F. Rufo ⚔️ @realchrisrufo

I've emailed Executive Editor @SallyBuzbee and Managing Editor @cameronbarr requesting corrections to these errors. They should really be embarrassed about the sloppy work, mischaracterizations, and obvious partisan agenda on their factual reporting side. Shameful work. — PolitiTweet.org

Christopher F. Rufo ⚔️ @realchrisrufo

Last time the WaPo came after me, the paper eventually admitted to fabricating a timeline, retracted or added six full paragraphs, reversed a key claim, and failed to produce evidence of a falsified quotation. A very embarrassing operation over there. https://t.co/DnziQZR2O5 — PolitiTweet.org

Christopher F. Rufo ⚔️ @realchrisrufo

Lie #5. The WaPo also manages to lie about my work on the DeSantis Stop WOKE Act. Again, it's likely that Strauss simply did not read the law—or, sadly, is suffering from cognitive deficiencies and/or extreme partisan brain-rot. In any case, very embarrassing for WaPo. https://t.co/oWiLsVMqE2 — PolitiTweet.org

Christopher F. Rufo ⚔️ @realchrisrufo

Lie #4. The WaPo brazenly fabricates the timeline of events surrounding my work with President Trump on the anti-CRT executive order. Strauss shows that she cannot read a basic calendar. Extreme stupidity and sloppiness in service of a partisan narrative—very on-brand for WaPo. https://t.co/McWbtnwO2p — PolitiTweet.org

Christopher F. Rufo ⚔️ @realchrisrufo

Lie #3. The WaPo flat-out lies about Trump's anti-CRT executive order. It's likely that @valeriestrauss did not bother to read it—or, even worse, she read it and either did not have the mental capacity to understand it or lied about it knowingly. Not good in any case. https://t.co/DnYFm434cD — PolitiTweet.org

Christopher F. Rufo ⚔️ @realchrisrufo

Lie #2. The WaPo invents ideas and then attributes them to me with no evidence or citations. Strauss' syntax—"[systemic racism] doesn't exist"—is more appropriate for children discussing the Tooth Fairy than a series discussion of racism, law, and institutions. https://t.co/OXjv5KuYBM — PolitiTweet.org

Christopher F. Rufo ⚔️ @realchrisrufo

Lie #1. The WaPo tries to revive the long-debunked claim that "critical race theory isn't taught in schools." I've provided them with reams of evidence and *the WaPo itself* has published multiple articles admitting that critical race theory is being taught in K-12 schools. https://t.co/d5vVM9AKzs — PolitiTweet.org

Christopher F. Rufo ⚔️ @realchrisrufo

Last year, I forced the Washington Post to retract a blizzard of lies about my work. Now, the paper has dispatched another hack, @valeriestrauss, to push a fresh round of distortions, inaccuracies, and flat-out lies. Let's debunk them one by one. 🧵 — PolitiTweet.org
