Pants on Fire: Politifact in Texas-Sized Blunder Defending Wendy Davis: Politifact Texas hit Republican gubernatorial candidate Greg Abbott May 6 with its worst rating--"pants on fire"--for claiming that Democrat rival Wendy Davis raised money for a member of the Democratic Socialists of America.
That member was Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-IL), who hosted Davis at her annual "Ultimate Women's Power Lunch" fundraiser on May 5. Politifact's W. Gardner Selby slammed Abbott's claim despite acknowledging that Schakowsky "may have once participated in the Chicago chapter of the DSA and has been saluted by it."
