“Come to think of it, I am going to alert the @SEC directly about @Disney, @ABC and their misleading response to the whistleblower’s accusations about the presidential debate,” Ackman said.

Unfortunately for Ackman, he did not tag the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as he intended. The Twitter handle @SEC belongs to the NCAA’s Southeastern Conference. Unless he wanted to enlist the expertise of athletic programs like Georgia and Alabama, it was a comical error.

Twelve minutes later, Ackman doubled down on the tweet without realizing the mistake. In a second tweet, he claimed the SEC “understands the importance of the US securities markets. I believe it is one of the most non-partisan of our government agencies.”

Vance refused to immediately speak on the topic, sidestepping instead to briefly elaborate on his conspiracy that Haitian migrants are eating people’s pets in Springfield, Ohio.

“Do I agree with what Laura Loomer said about Kamala Harris? No, I don’t,” Vance continued. “I also don’t think that this is actually an issue of national import. Is Laura Loomer running for president? No. Kamala Harris is running for president, and whether you’re eating curry at your dinner table or fried chicken, things have gotten more expensive thanks to her policies.”

And just in case you think he meant Snopes, he did not. He said Snopes and then a separate website that he's never heard of before since he just made it up called Snoops.

“She talked about the Charlottesville hoax,” Trump said while complaining that the debate moderators did not fact-check Harris. “And these people did nothing about it, which has been totally debunked, as they say, by Snopes and snoops and everybody else. Hey, go look it up. Go to snoops, whatever the hell that is. No, I hear that’s a liberal site and they came out totally in favor of me. That’s got to be a bad thing, but they said they gave you a total phony stories.”

A CNN flash poll showed 63% of viewers thought Harris won the debate, despite an earlier poll predicting it would be a 50-50 toss up, while a whopping 12 out of 17 voters selected by Fox News declared Harris the winner.

“Elon Musk — who they hate — he saw that and he wrote this,” Rubin said. “‘Fine Taylor, you win. I will give you a child and guard your cats with my life.’ So, he’s mocking, he’s exposing the ridiculousness. It’s like, Taylor Swift, you are a young, pretty girl. Do you know what the gang members from Venezuela do to young, pretty girls? It ain’t pretty.”

Republican vice presidential candidate JD Vance acknowledged Tuesday that it’s possible the false claim that Haitian immigrants are abducting the pets of Springfield, Ohio, residents might not be true, but he encouraged his followers to continue posting “cat memes.”

“In the last several weeks, my office has received many inquiries from actual residents of Springfield who’ve said their neighbors’ pets or local wildlife were abducted by Haitian migrants. It’s possible, of course, that all of these rumors will turn out to be false,” Vance posted on X
