  • Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee Tweets President Trump Determined to Start War with North Japan-Fiction! Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee Tweets President Trump Determined to Start War with North Japan- Fiction! Summary of eRumor: U.S. Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) tweeted that President Trump is determined to start war with North Japan and referenced Nixon bombing Germans at Pearl Harbor. The Truth: A website that allows users to generate fake tweets from high-profile people is behind Sheila Jackson Lee’s bogus tweet about Trump starting war with North Japan. The historically inaccurate fake tweet first surfaced in December 2017 and re-circulated in January 2018. In it, Jackson Lee appears to bungle historical details of historical events during the 20th century and invent North Japan. A website that allows users to create fake tweets is behind a false rumor that Sheila Jackson Lee tweeted President Trump is determined to start war with North Japan. In reality, a Tweeterino.com user created the fake tweet. The website allows users to type whatever they want into a field, and then it turns it into an image that looks like a tweet from public figures. Users can then share screen grabs of the tweets, often misleading and confusing others: Tweeterino.com makes it easy to generating hoax tweets like the one about Sheila Jackson Lee. Sheila Jackson Lee has been a frequent target of Tweeterino.com users. We previously debunked a tweet claiming that she blamed a train derailment in Washington State on Trump’s racist agenda. This North Japan tweet is the latest hoax. Posted in Politics , Trump Tagged congress , donald trump , fake news (en)
