his mother in law died and his wife got an inheritance this has been debunked time and against for over a decade

Sounds less like this has been debunked - you literally acknowledge that the increase in net worth took place - than that the implication of nefarious self-dealing is, at least in this case, unwarranted.

no, it has literally been debunked this is a quote: > How does a senator earning $193,400 a year increase their net worth by nearly $2.4 million a year, every year for a decade? That DID NOT happen; it was a one time bump, not "every year for a decade".

Not so much debunked as "explained in such a way as to dispel suspicion"

no, debunked original quote: > How does a senator earning $193,400 a year increase their net worth by nearly $2.4 million a year, this is false / this did not happen

since that "original quote" is phrased as a question, it can't be debunked or even declared false, although it is undeniably tendentious. The net worth figure, which the Washington Post put at $22M in 2014 could be disputed (I've seen it set as high as $27M).

He may counter (and he'll have a point) that your intent was to cast shade on ol' Mitch. And that that's what was "debunked"

It is 100% argument through innuendo. I cannot deny this

"How is it that @matttgrant, a known rapist, has escaped prosecution?"
would you not agree that (a) that contains a statement of fact, even though the sentence itself terminates with a question mark, (b) one can debunk it?

Before I block you, a truth claim is not a statement of fact. Also, the original question you claim has been "debunked" - "How does a senator earning $193,400 a year increase their net worth by nearly $2.4 million a year, every year for a decade?" - makes no truth claim.
