House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi’s press conference Tuesday was interesting, to say the least.
Not only did she spend an inordinate amount of time explaining the definition of the word ‘scapegoat’ to people who already know the definition of the word ‘scapegoat,’ but she was talking about it in the first place because it was used in a tweet sent out by a fake Gen. Michael Flynn Twitter account--something completely lost on her.

These are the tweets she was referring to, which were first referenced in the press conference by Rep. Elijah Cummings.
