FAKE NEWS? Booker Tweets Ben Franklin Quote Which the Founding Father Never Said

FYI: @CoryBooker blocked me on Twitter.

2016 Vice Presidential Candidate and 2020 President Candidate Cory Booker (D-Twitter) is still making a lot of noise after his pre-inaugural stunts, Save Jerseyans, and I’m sorry to tell his snowflake followers, but today’s latest offering is probably #fakenews….

Cool quote.

Unfortunately, the left-leaning Snopes fact-checking website previously reported that it was “unable to locate any evidence that Benjamin Franklin ever said it was the first responsibility of every citizen to question authority.

T-Bone must’ve hijacked his account….?

More likely: it was an “alternative” Benjamin Franklin. =)
