Because it mentions how no one has received any funding from the federal governments 30million worth of grants yet, which is what the whole topic was about

If they find out that those clinics used the SAMHSA grant money to fund the smoking kits with crack pipes in them then, yes, the administration straight up lied.Remember this fun little discussion a few months ago? It definitely hasn't aged well:
Yes, Safe Smoking Kits Include Free Crack Pipes. We Know Because We Got Them.
Crack pipes are distributed in safe-smoking kits up and down the East Coast, raising questions about the Biden administration's assertion that its multimillion-dollar harm reduction grant program wouldn't funnel taxpayer dollars to drug paraphernalia.freebeacon.com
But right now it looks like the Washington Free Beacon pulled a fast one on ya

Why do they always link stories from these made up news papers?
Well, they demonstrably lied already:
I suppose it will remain to be seen (in 3 days!) whether the recipients of the grant money do not include any of those cities in the article I posted, but seeing as they're some of the biggest cities in the country, I would argue that your chances of being right are pretty low.
Apparently because mainstream media has reached new heights of partisanship and bias that the mainstream media doesn't want to report the truth anymore, or only when it's politically convenient to do so. See the Hunter Biden Laptop fiasco last fall for a great example of that.
Speaking of, I also read a great article this morning on Bari Weiss' substack talking about a statistician who was fired from Reuters because he dared to question the support of the BLM movement when one of it's key arguments was factually incorrect:
I Criticized BLM. Then I Was Fired.
The data about police shootings just didn't add up, but no one at Thomson Reuters wanted to hear it.

How is this a demonstrable lie? There is zero evidence right now that this administration funded crack pipes through the SAMHSA grant. You're just making shit up and hoping it comes true
To paraphrase AB19, did you read the [link]? Psaki was asked if crack pipes are part of safe smoking kits, and she said "they were never a part of the kit." The kits obtained by the Free Beacon proved that to be a lie.

Q Thanks, Jen. HHS just put out a statement clarifying around some reports that crack pipes are not going to be part of the “safe smoking kits” that are funded by the administration.
You can't just ignore words because they don't fit your narrative.
(you, not me)
I would argue that Psaki was saying that crack pipes are not part of a "safe smoking kit" in a general definition of the term. There's no evidence there's two (or more) different "safe smoking" kits, one being federally funded and one not, unless you have some.

Dude just let it go. You’ve lost the plot
No evidence of two different kits, then? Sorry to see your grasping at straws argument fall apart.
Can you explain what your point was then by adding in the “funded by the administration” language?
Are you suggesting there are kits not funded by the administration and kits that are.
If so, can you please provide a source?

The words that Jen spews are full of shit. She never directly answers any question with dignity, only replies with an attitude a demon raged, commie would respond in, and acts like she's schooling reporters that ask questions that go against the .gov administration's agenda.

What to fake news like OAN? Who literally had to make a court ordered correction about how the election wasn’t stolen

No, I’m not going to do that. Prove to me that the SAMHSA grant in question funded crack pipes. That was the original claim

I called up the new Disinformation Czar. She said this never happened. Please remove this post or she will have it removed and wiped from the internet and you will be thrown in jail!
