Fox News host Tucker Carlson repeatedly denied that Jan. 6 had anything to do with race, falsely claiming that white supremacists bore no responsibility for what happened. https://t.co/38hUnvD6mA — PolitiTweet.org

On her show in February, Laura Ingraham said that the events of Jan. 6 paled in comparison with history’s other insurrections. In June, Fox Business Network host Maria Bartiromo said that calling Jan. 6 an armed insurrection is one of the nation’s “biggest lies.” — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., minimized the attack by arguing in February that it couldn’t be considered an armed insurrection. We rated that Pants on Fire! https://t.co/cG6Ze0jked — PolitiTweet.org

Despite evidence showing that dozens of rioters were armed with real and makeshift weapons as they tried to overturn the election, claims that Jan. 6 was “not an insurrection” hardened into a popular talking point. — PolitiTweet.org

Second, the events of Jan. 6 were widely broadcast on that day and many days afterward. The body of evidence for what happened includes direct video documentation and eyewitness accounts. https://t.co/5V1vYwOLUg — PolitiTweet.org

But never before had Americans overtaken the Capitol to hold up the electoral proceedings and threaten lawmakers. In fact, “peaceful transfer of power” has long been a hallmark phrase in describing, with pride, the American experience. https://t.co/miDPE8dzcT — PolitiTweet.org

Over the years, some members of Congress lodged protests when the Electoral College count was close, as in 2000, or when individual states had close margins, like Ohio in 2004. — PolitiTweet.org

We picked the Jan. 6 lie for two reasons. First is the historical significance of the attack. A federal judge called it "the most significant assault on the Capitol since the War of 1812." https://t.co/vtsfniYxrD — PolitiTweet.org

PolitiFact had many options to choose from for our Lie of the Year: claims that the 2020 election was stolen, claims that the COVID vaccine didn’t work, and this one, claims downplaying the realities and significance of the Capitol insurrection. https://t.co/7LwmVcjp78 — PolitiTweet.org

President Donald Trump claimed that there were no guns in the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. That's False. Court documents show that some of the people charged with crimes related to Jan. 6 brought guns onto Capitol grounds. https://t.co/Y2OO10D4rz — PolitiTweet.org

Trump, some of the loudest and most influential members of the Republican Party and vocal partisan media personalities offered a deluge of justifications, excuses and conspiracy theories to reframe Jan. 6 as no big deal. https://t.co/Briwufgu6Q https://t.co/MpheIoksH8 — PolitiTweet.org
