Andrea Mitchell
Fake News MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell attempted to attack President Trump’s White House on Monday over tweets sent from the official White House Twitter account to two different Senators.
Lawyers on Twitter hammered Andrea Mitchell for citing the wrong law.
The White House sent a tweet to Kamala Harris asking her why she supports MS-13.
[email protected], why are you supporting the animals of MS-13? You must not know what ICE really does. Here is a link to help you out:

And another to Senator Elizabeth ‘Pocahontas’ Warren.
[email protected], why are you supporting criminals moving weapons, drugs, and victims across our nation’s borders? You must not know what ICE really does. Here is a link to help you out:
.@SenWarren, why are you supporting criminals moving weapons, drugs, and victims across our nation’s borders? You must not know what ICE really does. Here is a link to help you out: https://t.co/5CiTKkIs4c

Andrea Mitchell then spread fake news by citing a law that has nothing to do with the White House’s tweets.
First, Andrea Mitchell jumped to Kamala Harris’s defense.
Mitchell tweeted: White House official twitter account slams potential 2020 opponents over ICE FALSELY accusing @SenKamalaHarris of “supporting the animals of MS-13” and @SenWarren of “supporting criminals moving weapons, drugs and victims” across our borders. Raises questions of law and ethics

The fake news reporter then cited a law that has nothing to do with the White House’s tweets to Senators, but hey, when do facts matter to liars in the media?
Mitchell tweeted: Re: White House tweets attacking Senators: Section 1352(a) of Title 31: No part of the money appropriated by any enactment of Congress shall..be used directly or indirectly to pay for any .. written matter… intended or designed to influence in any manner a Member of Congress

And Twitter responded…
Lawyer and independent journalist, Mike Cernovich blasted Andrea Mitchell.
This is fake news spread by top NBC reporters, and the rest of the media looks the other way.
The law she cites has nothing to do with tweets.
Ask any lawyer.
It’s a lobbying regulation.
This is fake news and not one mainstream reporter will call it out. pic.twitter.com/0pWqn7YTb6

Ma’am, that’s objectively wrong. Does ABC not have lawyers?
31 USC 1352 is a lobbying regulation.
It literally says this in the title:
“Limitation on use of appropriated funds to influence certain Federal contracting and financial transactions”
Fake news and fake laws? https://t.co/gUV9kDKBrE

Gabriel Malor, an attorney and contributor to The Federalist and Washington Examiner set Andrea Mitchell straight.
Would it surprise anyone to know this isn’t what 31 U.S.C. § 1352(a) is about? 3,000+ retweets for the lying reporter.
Sec. 1352(a) doesn’t say “influence in any manner.” It says influence in connection with a list of contracting and financial actions.

Here is the text of 31 U.S.C. § 1352(a), which has nothing to do with what @mitchellreports is claiming.
Her readers are even more ignorant for following her than if they’d never heard of this law. pic.twitter.com/cU8Gsf4guj

Needless to say, 31 U.S.C. § 1352(a) has nothing to do with White House tweets.
The left has lost its damn minds.

What is with these people? Earlier today Chris Hayes accused the president of lawbreaking because he hadn’t nominated a replacement for Mulvaney, which, in fact, Trump did back on June 19.
Andrea Mitchell: hold my beer.

Chet Cannon pointed out Obama’s White House previously tweeted at Mitch McConnell over Obamacare and no one minded.
‘Omg! The Trump White House tweeting a sitting Senator. This is truly unprecedented, unethical, and illegal’
Remember when the Obama White House did it?
