'Same lies for 3 years': Brian Kemp spokesman crushes new MAGA conspiracy theory

A spokesperson for Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp fired back on Monday after allies of former President Donald Trump started spreading a new conspiracy theory that falsely claimed the governor's office was launching an investigation into 17,000 "invalid" votes cast in 2020.

As the Atlanta Journal Constitution reports, the claim about Kemp's office launching a new investigation into the 2020 election went viral on Friday afternoon and was even promoted by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) despite the fact that Georgia state officials were quick to denounce it as false.

In fact, according to the AJC, the conspiracy theory about "invalid" voters in Fulton County, Georgia first popped up in a failed lawsuit aimed at overturning his loss in the state, and it appears that MAGA allies simply recycled it and tried to give it new life last week.

The AJC reports that Kemp and his allies are "fed up" that they still have to waste time debunking these false claims and Kemp Director of Communications Cody Hall came out swinging in a quote given to the paper.

“Retelling the same lies for three years does not make them true, even when citing bogus online blogs,” Hall said. “The moon landing was real, Bigfoot does not roam the forests of North America, and the 2020 election in Georgia was not stolen.”
