Verdict: False
The claim is inaccurate. The image appears to be fabricated.
Fact Check:
A New York City drag queen pride parade is making headlines after they chanted during the march “we’re here, we’re queer, we’re coming for your children,” Fox News reported. Recently at Dodger Stadium there were protests against the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence that held a pride event before the game, according to Los Angeles Times.
The Twitter post shares an alleged tweet from the conservative organization Moms for Liberty. The post shares the alleged quote in a screenshot which dates the tweet June 22.
“We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children,” the alleged tweet reads.
The caption is inaccurate There is no credible news report that suggests this tweet is authentic. There is no such post found on their verified Twitter account. Likewise, there is no record of this tweet on an archived version of their account.(RELATED: Does Viral Video Show The Nova Kakhovka Dam Being Blown Up?)
Moms for Liberty addressed the post saying that the image was a fabrication. They said unequivocally in a tweet, “There is a FAKE “deleted tweet” currently circulating on Twitter that is being attributed to us. We did not write it, we did not post it and we certainly didn’t delete anything.”
There is a FAKE “deleted tweet” currently circulating on Twitter that is being attributed to us.
We did not write it, we did not post it and we certainly didn’t delete anything.
If you have to lie to hurt us, you’re losing.
We stand for truth.
