While this strange inquiry quickly gained traction online, with social media users questioning the sanctity of the Representative’s science, Gohmert issued a clarification to his statement shortly after – throwing a conniption over the fact that a reporter kept the “BLM” acronym mentioned in his initial quote as such, instead of specifically denoting that he was referring to the Bureau of Land Management.
“Exceedingly devious how you hid the context with an ellipses in your tweet,” he wrote in a Twitter reply to journalist Kurt Andersen, who shared a screenshot featuring his quote. “The hearing was about the BUREAU OF LAND MANAGEMENT & climate change. BLM stands for the BUREAU OF LAND MANAGEMENT,” he continued, adding the hashtag #FakeNews. Nice.
