FACTS: Check ‘em out, Dean

| March 14, 2021 1:00 AM

Dean Haagenson should have fact checked his statement re: the $1.9 trillion COVID Relief package. It did not include a tunnel for Pelosi’s San Francisco and it did not include a bridge for Schumer for New York.

Also the claim that Biden allowed males to “compete in girls sports” likely stems from an executive order from the Biden administration titled “Preventing and Combating Discrimination on the Basis of Gender Identity or Sexual Orientation.” The Jan. 20 executive order extends protections from a 2020 Supreme Court case that addressed employment law to other federal laws including those that cover education and school-related activities. These false statements originated in a Facebook post.
