Fact Check - Hillary Clinton’s denial of role in former Japanese PM killing is fabricated

Reuters Fact Check (12 July 2022)

Social media users are sharing a tweet allegedly posted by Hillary Clinton in which she denies ordering the assassination of former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. However, the former U.S. First Lady and Democratic presidential candidate did not tweet this, and the post appears to be satirical.

An example can be seen (here).

​

The tweet reads: “I want to say one thing to the American people. I want you to listen to me. I’m going to say this again: I did not have murderous intentions toward that Prime Minister, Shinzo Abe. I never told anybody to kill him. Not a single time. Never. These allegations are false. And I need to go back to work for the American people.”

Comments on the posts include: “Makes you wonder about all the times she didn’t deny it,” “okay-- I’m getting a little suspicious” and “This can’t be real.”

Abe was shot dead by a gunman on June 8 in the Japanese city of Nara. Police arrested a 41-year-old man.

The tweet was most likely intended as satire, as it borrows wording from a press conference by Clinton’s husband, former U.S. President Bill Clinton, about Monica Lewinsky.

On Jan. 26, 1998, Bill Clinton said: “…want to say one thing to the American people, I want you to listen to me, I’m going to say this again, I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky, I never told anybody to lie, not a single time, never. These allegations are false, and I need to go back to work for the American people.” (here)

The tweet does not exist on Clinton’s Twitter page (twitter.com/HillaryClinton) and a Google search for the quote reveals no credible results (bit.ly/3nSmpAO).

Reuters previously fact checked a tweet in Japanese and English from an account claiming to belong to Abe (here) that said: “I have information that will lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton.”

VERDICT

Satire. A tweet about former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe attributed to Hillary Clinton was fabricated, most likely for satire.

Did he really say, wtf?

For those who don't remember January 26, 1998:

But I want to say one thing to the American people. I want you to listen to me. I'm going to say this again: I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky. I never told anybody to lie. Not a single time. Never. These allegations are false. And I need to go back to work for the American people.

Yes, he did. It's part of the troll.

Stop complaining about inflation, you selfish bastards!

As an American, you should want to take the hit - for the sake of foreign borrowers.

Those stupid motherfuckers have a little more to worry about than just a little global recession and those interest rates have a long way to go before they make a dent in inflation.

Gender activists push to bar anthropologists from identifying human remains as ‘male’ or ‘female’
Argue scientists cannot know how an ancient individual identified themselves
https://www.thecollegefix.com/gende...-identifying-human-remains-as-male-or-female/

As soon as ancient human remains are excavated, archaeologists begin the work of determining a number of traits about the individual, including age, race and gender.

But a new school of thought within archaeology is pushing scientists to think twice about assigning gender to ancient human remains.

It is possible to determine whether a skeleton is from a biological male or female using objective observations based on the size and shape of the bones. Criminal forensic detectives, for example, do it frequently in their line of work.

But gender activists argue scientists cannot know how an ancient individual identified themselves.

“You might know the argument that the archaeologists who find your bones one day will assign you the same gender as you had at birth, so regardless of whether you transition, you can’t escape your assigned sex,” tweeted Canadian Master’s degree candidate Emma Palladino last week.

Palladino, who is seeking an advanced degree in archaeology, called assigning gender to an ancient human “bullshit.”

“Labelling remains ‘male’ or ‘female’ is rarely the end goal of any excavation, anyway,” wrote Palladino. “The ‘bioarchaeology of the individual’ is what we aim for, factoring in absolutely everything we discover about a person into a nuanced and open-ended biography of their life.”

She is not alone. Gender activists have formed a group called the Trans Doe Task Force to “explore ways in which current standards in forensic human identification do a disservice to people who do not clearly fit the gender binary.”

“We propose a gender-expansive approach to human identification by combing missing and unidentified databases looking for contextual clues such as decedents wearing clothing culturally coded to a gender other than their assigned sex,” the group’s mission statement reads.

“We maintain our own database of missing and unidentified people who we have determined may be Transgender or gender-variant, as most current database systems do not permit comparison of missing to unidentified across different binary sex categories,” the group writes.

This February, University of Kansas Associate Professor Jennifer Raff published “Origin: A Genetic History of the Americas,” in which she argued that there are “no neat divisions between physically or genetically ‘male’ or ‘female’ individuals.”

Raff [...] suggested scientists cannot know the gender of a 9,000 year-old biologically Peruvian hunter because they don’t know whether the hunter identified as male or female – a “duality” concept she says was “imposed by Christian colonizers.”

[...]

Others have called for changing primate names that were derived from white white men from the northern hemisphere. The activists argue that continuing to use the current names is “perpetuating colonialism and white supremacy.”

“This is just another attempt to insert a current woke ideology where it doesn’t belong,” Weiss said.

Those stupid motherfuckers have a little more to worry about than just a little global recession and those interest rates have a long way to go before they make a dent in inflation.

It is not the consumer that cannot afford food, or housing, that is overspending causing inflation. How does raising interest rates curb inflation when Government is the reckless spender? Government cannot afford interest on the debt when interest is near zero.
