CNN fact checker knocks down more than a dozen false claims made by GOPers at CPAC

A CNN fact-checker recently slashed through more than a dozen false claims that derived from this weekend's Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) currently underway in Dallas, Texas.

On Saturday, March 4, CNN's Daniel Dale penned an analysis to offer insight and clarity on the claims. In his analysis, he began with a clear introduction about the false claims he intended to debunk.

Starting with the first day of the conference, Dale researched claims made by Reps. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) and Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) and offered corrections to refute their inaccurate remarks.

"The members of Congress, former government officials and conservative personalities who spoke at the conference on Thursday and Friday made false claims about a variety of topics," Dale wrote.

"Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio uttered two false claims about President Joe Biden. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia repeated a debunked claim about Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky," he added.

"Sen. Tommy Tuberville of Alabama used two inaccurate statistics as he lamented the state of the country. Former Trump White House official Steve Bannon repeated his regular lie about the 2020 election having been stolen from Trump, this time baselesly blaming Fox for Trump’s defeat," he wrote.

Dale went on to address claims from Reps. Kat Cammack (R-Fla.) and Rep. Ralph Norman (R-S.C.)

"Rep. Kat Cammack of Florida incorrectly said a former Obama administration official had encouraged people to harass Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. Rep. Ralph Norman of South Carolina inaccurately claimed Biden had laughed at a grieving mother and inaccurately insinuated that the FBI tipped off the media to its search of former President Donald Trump’s Florida residence," he wrote. "Two other speakers, Rep. Scott Perry of Pennsylvania and former Trump administration official Sebastian Gorka, inflated the number of deaths from fentanyl."

In total, Dale debunked 13 misleading claims made by Republican lawmakers during the conference.
