          Or, apparently, see that the last four pages of the documents he used shows that it's not 19 (which he says now but wasn't in his article).

          tl;dr: @AndrewCFollett is either a very bad reporter, can't read, or just wanted to spend an afternoon trolling @cjane87 and me. I'm tired.

          Claims to cite DCNF report...accidentally cites Daily Signal. What a classic Buzzfeed move

          No...it isn't. Thing in media called "licensing." Compare my DC page to the Daily Signal author page. Or read the bottom of my every article

          I didn't "accidentally cite" anything, Andrew. The thread refers to all entities, and the same inaccurate article.

          Tis not inaccurate. Just apparently far to confusing enough for certain peps to manipulate to avoid talking about actual issue.
