Diamond and Silk are fed up with these so called fact checkers taking their opinions, statements and thoughts out of context.  These deceptive and manipulative individuals are so dishonest.  They appear to get off on destroying the characters of others they disagree with, silencing the voice of anyone who goes against their nasty narrative while censoring open dialogue.

The so called Fact Checkers deem themselves as the arbiter of truth, the ruler over thoughts and the dictator over opinions.   They add content to the context of someone’s post just to say the post is misleading.  Then write an article as if it’s factual when they know damn well it’s not.  Well, they messed with the wrong two black women.  We will not stand by and let these left leaning liberals take away our FREE SPEECH.  We Must Fight back.

On August 13, 2021 at 3:22pm ET, Diamond and Silk Tweeted this out.

Diamond and Silk were pissed-off with Eric Carvin from the AP because instead of removing the Fact Check notice, they updated their article with lies.

Lie number 1: (Diamond and Silk told the AP they never claimed the bipartisan infrastructure bill provided funding for a welcoming center, but did not immediately respond to a request to identify another basis for their claim.)

Lie number 2: (This item has been updated to include a response from Diamond and Silk and clarify that they did not specify the source of the claim that American tax dollars would fund a $2.5 billion welcoming center.)

The Truth: No one from the Associate Press, not even Eric Carvin ever spoke to or correspond with Diamond and Silk.

These people are delusional. They love to make things look and appear a particular way in order to fool the public. It’s called Psychological Manipulation.

Because of the ladies integrity, they asked the D&S Team to allow Eric and The associate press the opportunity to update their article or remove the Fact-Check notice.

After plenty of time for them to do either, they did neither. So as promised, here’s the emails.

EMAIL Timeline:

1. On Wed August 7, 2021 at 7:39am ET, Diamond and Silk post this on FB.

2. On Wed, Aug 11, 2021 at 4:04 pm ET, Ali from the Associated Press emailed Diamond and Silk team for comments.

3. But before The D&S Team could comment on anything, the Associated Press put a Fact Checked notice on their FB post. (Note: When they put a Fact Checked notice on a post, it slows down the post engagement. Is that why they give you no time to respond? Look at what they wrote in the email above. “It’s now gained significant traction online”)

4. On August 13, 2021 at 12:32pm ET, The D&S Team asked for an Appeal, gave their reasons why and also asked for the Fact-Check notice to be removed.

5. On Fri, Aug 13, 2021 at 12:50pm ET, Ali’s editor Eric Carvin took over the email correspondence. But in order for the appeal request to be considered, Eric wanted the D&S team to explain a few things.

6. Here is The D&S Team response.

7. Eric replied back. “We would happily update our item based on your response, and adjust the rating as appropriate”

8. The D&S Team response

9. Eric replied with how they adjusted their story. (READ CAREFULLY) They admitted that the ladies didn’t reference what the Fact Checkers tried to associate their post with and how they adjusted their story.

Question: Why did the AP attach Diamond and Silk to this article if they didn’t reference the infrastructure plan?

10. After reading over the adjusted article, the D&S Team emailed Eric from the Associate Press.

11. Replied right back.

12. The D&S Team response

13. Eric reply. (This is where these so called Fact Checkers always twist things up.)

The appeal email from the D&S Team say’s, Diamond and Silk’s post never claimed that “THE BILL” provides funding for a welcoming center.

The article was updated by the AP to say, Diamond and Silk told the AP they never claimed the bipartisan infrastructure bill provided funding for a welcoming center.

See how they took one thing and made it appear like it was something else? The appeal email was referencing the ladies Post. The article made it look like it was a direct statement from the ladies. Remember, Diamond and Silk never spoke to Eric or anyone from the associate press.

Now this is what you call misinformation. The loony left believes it’s OK to shape the narrative as they choose to without any push back.

14. The D&S Team respond

We live in the United States of America. We have FREEDOM OF SPEECH.

If so called Fact Checkers can rate your speech, then who rates the so called Fact Checkers?
