A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

@glennkirschner.bsky.social wouldn’t it be interesting to coordinate some of these emails with statements made shortly afterwards by the president, because he does sometimes have a way of revealing things without being specific?
