The youngest House Republican appeared to confuse fact with fiction, sharing what seems to be a comedy skit as supposed evidence of crime in New York City subways.
“We can clean up our streets tomorrow if we’re willing to lock up criminals and thugs who terrorize innocent people,” Rep. Brandon Gill posted on X on Tuesday, alongside a video showing a man slapping another passenger on the subway before walking away.
The post now includes a “Community Note,” which allows users on X to add context to potentially misleading posts.
