Right wing media propaganda is pathetic. Subtle brainwashing at its best.
Here is the New York Post headline which is owned by Murdoch.
GOP lawmaker probed over ‘emotionally charged’ spat with Iranian-American activist
Here is the paragraph buried in the article.
A separate police report,
described by NBC Washington, states that Raviani told police that “[h]er significant other for over a year” had “grabbed her, shoved her, and pushed her out of the door” and that there were “bruises on her arm which appeared fresh.” That report also says Raviani let cops listen to a recorded phone call in which Mills “instruct[ed] her to lie about the origin of her bruises” and that Mills (R-Fla.) had himself “admitted [to officers] that the situation escalated from verbal to physical.”
Ask yourself, does the headline match what is buried in the article? What is the relevance of the victim being Iranian? Blatant attempt to demonize her before the story goes wider. Headline makes it appear it was just a simple verbal argument but that is not what she is claiming.
In the police have a recording of her phone call where she discussed the incident with Mills. The altercation was physical and he told her to lie. She then changed her story when Mills told her he would be arrested.
Something really stinks. IMO He forced her to recant because it looks bad to have yet abother white male Republican beating up his wife/gf.
Stay tuned.
