The video is of someone attached to a chest harness, but Republicans, including the notorious carnival barker Ted Cruz (R-TX, where else?) have spread the claim the Taliban was flying this Blackhawk with an Afghan interpreter hanging below it.
My God these people will believe anything, just like their Lord and Savior, Donald John Trump.
“This horrifying image encapsulates Joe Biden’s Afghanistan catastrophe: The Taliban hanging a man from an American Blackhawk helicopter,” Cruz tweeted late on Monday night, adding: “Tragic. Unimaginable.”
The video Cruz shared has been viewed almost 2 million times already.
Rep. Jason Smith from Missouri, followed his Republican colleague in falsely using the video to critique the Biden administration.
Rep. Dan Crenshaw also shared the video, asking: “In what f***ing world was it a good idea to just hand over a country to these people.”
Right-wing pastor Greg Locke, who has repeatedly espoused QAnon conspiracies from the pulpit and who claims former President Donald Trump is the legitimate winner of last year’s election, tweeted:
“The Taliban is literally hanging people from American helicopters that Biden gave them. Anyone still supporting this fraudulent fool is either lying or is straight up evil.”
No, the Taliban Did Not Just Hang an Interpreter From a US Helicopter
