WaPo Gives Pelosi Pinocchios for Gun Claim
Nancy Pelosi
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi  missed the mark in  her  interpretation of the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act  voted into law by Republicans last week. That legislation   Pelosi  declared on Twitter  comes with some unwanted invitations.
Yet the @HouseGOP just voted to do exactly that #StopCCR â Nancy Pelosi (@NancyPelosi) December 6  2017
The Washington Post Fact Checker gave  Pelosi  three Pinocchios for the misleading tweet. Contrary to the picture  Pelosi  tried to paint  federal law already prohibits violent criminals from obtaining guns.
 The House Minority Leader  was supposedly relying on information  she  obtained from the gun control group Everytown for Gun Safety  which declared that the bill âforces" states to allow concealed carry by many people who have never been subjected to a background check to carry throughout the country.
 Pelosi  earned the third Pinocchio  however  thanks to  her  last line.
âWe wavered between Two and Three Pinocchios but ultimately settled on Three because  her  last line â 'the @House GOP just voted to do exactly that' â is so over the top and exaggerated â the Fact Checker explained.
