Trump Says America’s Oil Industry Is Cleaner Than Other Countries’. New Data Shows Massive Emissions From Texas Wells.
---

The oil industry touts Texas as a success story in controlling climate-warming methane emissions. The state’s regulator, however, grants nearly every request to burn or vent gas into the atmosphere.

@ProPublica maybe thousands of abandoned, methane-leaking wells aren't counted as part of the industry

Hey @ProPublica

Please put the #TruthFirst in your headlines.

Example:
Despite what Trump claims, America's oil industry is NOT cleaner than other countries. New Data Shows Massive Emissions From Texas Wells.

Do not just put "Trump Says..." as the lead in to a lie. That's stenography, not journalism.

Meme with text.

How to refute a lie without simply amplifying the lie.

Use a Truth Sandwich:
-- First, tell the truth.
-- Then, point the lie and how it diverges from the truth.
-- Repeat the truth and explain the consequences of the difference between the truth and the lie.

How the heck would he know. The truth is always the opposite of what he says anyway.

@ProPublica I've been to the oil fields of Texas many times even recently. It's absolutely disgusting the air is thick with the stench of various chemicals and the sky tends to have a haze.

Oh yeah there's also tons of methane flaring.

But sure it's clean lmao, ironically Texas doesead the nation in wind energy but that doesn't seem to be a focus this admin.

@ProPublica orange PoS lies more than he speaks. Whatever the #dictator says is always garbage.
