Lost Cause meet Crazy Cause: using Juneteenth to tear down of the San Fran. statue of Ulysses S. Grant —who won the Civil War that led to emancipation, long before had freed the 1 slave he had been given & who was later eulogized by Frederick Douglass

Carlson says Trump wanted to "crackdown on rioters...but every time he has been talked out of it by Jared Kushner & by aides that Kushner has hired & controls."

That was debunked before: bit.ly/2VcPIiP
It's 1 thing for Trump to say this wildly false statement about voter fraud once, but he's saying it again after it was debunked. Note: Judicial Watch denied making the claim, saying it's "Not ours...Just some random person misinterpreting" bit.ly/2RooB38 2/5
The California issue concerned LA voter rolls, which contained nearly 1.6m inactive voters. LA wasn't ensuring that these voters were still legit under the National Voter Registration Act.

That's not voter fraud. Here's the settlement:
