[Continuing our series on deception in politics and public policy.]
It appears that "fact-checkers" have one thing in common: They lie.
The latest evidence comes from documents released by WikiLeaks revealing Hillary Clinton's private speech for Brazilian bankers, for which she was paid $225,000 by Itau BBA, a unit of Itau Unibanco Holding, Brazil's largest private-sector bank. Her remarks followed by eight months a speech by Bill Clinton for which the Brazilian bankers paid a reported $400,000.
In her remarks, dated May 16, 2013, Clinton said that she believes in open borders. "My dream is a hemispheric common market, with open trade and open borders . . . ," she said, as quoted in the WikiLeaks document. (She does not deny making the comment.)
