California state Senator Scott Wiener, a “woke” Democrat, has been accused of faking a “homophobic” threat against himself.
The controversial lawmaker is best known for pushing laws in the state that expose children to adult themes.
Wiener was also behind a California bill that decriminalized “gay sex” between adults and minors and has been pushing for laws to allow children to undergo life-changing sex-change surgery.
In June, he suggested “Offering Drag Queen 101 as part of the K-12 curriculum.”
In a post on Twitter, he said that children “Attending Drag Queen Story Time will satisfy the requirement.”
Now, Wiener has been accused of a hate crime hoax.
On Tuesday, conservative pundit Charlie Kirk posted a Twitter thread pointing the finger at Wiener for contributing to the release of “thousands of pedophiles” in California.
He noted that child sex offenders are being freed “after just a few months in jail,” as Slay News previously reported.
That name and photo might ring a bell. Wiener is one of the most effective lawmakers in the entire country. He's behind California's new law that will protect parents who kidnap their children and take them to California to receive mutilating surgeries.

If there's some horrifying idea related to modern gender and sex ideology, Wiener has probably written and passed a bill about it in California.

If elected Republicans cared as much about their voters’ concerns as Scott Wiener cares about freeing pedophiles and mutilating children, they’d have won total victory long ago.

In response to Kirk’s post, Wiener tweeted allegations that he’d been threatened as a result of the thread.
Wiener posted a screen show of what he claimed was a hateful, anti-LGBTQ message he’d received in response to Kirk’s thread.
“Not even 24 hours after MAGA grifter Charlie Kirk tweeted homophobic lies about me, I received this thread repeating one of his lies,” Wiener claimed along with a screenshot of the alleged message.
However, there was one problem with Wiener’s screenshot that Twitter users were quick to point out.
Except, there’s a cursor at the bottom of the message, and grammar suggestions are underlined, meaning the screenshot was taken from an editable text document, not from a received message.
The discovery led many to accuse the California lawmaker of faking the entire thing.

Yeah… that's super doubtful. Rather than just taking a screenshot of the message and blacking out or cropping the identity, he copied the text, opened a text document, pasted the text in, and then took a screenshot.
No doubt that's what he'll claim after deleting it, though.
