MAGA-STAR Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) said Friday that the Washington Post wrote a smear job on her with several mischaracterizations, and baseless and inaccurate information, including the claim that she only embraced her Hispanic background in order to seek office.

This report was then shared by mainstream media.

“As I’ve said before, and as the Washington Post has clearly showcased, anyone who is a conservative minority is a threat to Leftist control,” Luna told Fox News Digital. “They can try to discredit me, but unfortunately for them the facts completely blow their story out of the water.”

The far-left WaPo published a story on Friday attacking her with the headline “The making of Anna Paulina Luna.”

The fake news outlet reported:

Anna Paulina Luna was serving at Whiteman Air Force undefined in Warrensburg, Mo., where friends said she described herself as alternately Middle Eastern, Jewish or Eastern European. Known then by her given last name of Mayerhofer, Luna sported designer clothing and expressed support for then-President Barack Obama,” fake news WaPo wrote.

By the time she ran for Congress as a Republican, she had changed her last name to Luna in what she said was an homage to her mother’s family.

Luna’s sharp turn to the right, her account of an isolated and impoverished childhood, and her embrace of her Hispanic heritage have come as a surprise to some friends and family who knew her before her ascent to the U.S. House this year.

“The Washington Post just tried to claim my dad was never incarcerated, left out comments from my mom, said I was a registered Democrat, and did not report a convo they had with a former roommate, and interviewed “family” I don’t talk to. This is comical,” Rep. Luna wrote on her Twitter account.

“Their source also claimed that I was given a Russian firearm to honor my heritage and was not in the state of MO during the break in. This is wild,” she continued.

Paulina’s friend and roommate’s comment was left off the hit piece because it didn’t fit their narrative.

They left my comments completely out of this story. I’m not surprised though. It didn’t fit the narrative. https://t.co/yHc328GczY

Another friend of Luna came into her defense.

“The sources used by Washington Post to support their story attempting to smear Rep. Luna’s reputation are not credible. Many of us that were stationed at Whiteman Air Force Base with Anna during her military service know her well,” said Instagram user martini1947.

Rep. Luna has stated that her attorney has issued letters to the fake news media demanding that they retract their bogus story or face legal action.

“We have sent letters from my attorney to the Washington Post & Salon to issue corrections or we will sue. We are also sending to Vanity Fair, Business Insider, Yahoo News, Independent, any other outlet that reports false info,” Rep. Luna wrote.

WaPo’s Jacqueline Alemany, one of the authors who wrote the hit piece against Rep. Luna has issued an apology for the false information they published.

“We incorrectly stated that Anna Paulina Luna was reg’d as a Dem in Washington state in 2017 based on an erroneous voter reg database. Wash only requires voters declare party affiliation when they cast a ballot in a POTUS primary. So sorry for the error!” Alemany wrote.

On Friday night, Rep Luna joined Jesse Watters Primetime to discuss the recent hit piece.

The hit piece against Rep. Luna comes after she gave the most explosive questioning during the committee hearing on government-big tech collusion and suppression of speech in regard to the Hunter Biden laptop report.

The beautiful Florida Representative brought the receipts and exposed the former Twitter brass and their network of tyrants who are behind the censorship of American conservatives.

Paulina’s questioning was exceptional. She exposed the hidden network operating in the background that is destroying free speech in America. The network includes DHS, CISA, DFITF, EIP, CIS, and others. And Luna brought proof that Yoel Roth was using the private software cloud JIRA to communicate with the FBI and government officials to silence conservative speech.

This evidence left the panel SPEECHLESS! These horrible people NEVER thought they would be exposed and held accountable for their highly unethical and likely criminal conduct.

It was recently reported that New York City is giving some illegal immigrants taxpayer-funded bus tickets to Canada. Some of them took the deal, because they were dismayed with the level of crime in New York.

Well, they must not have told these folks what Canada is like in winter because some of them took one look and decided to come back.

This situation is reaching amazing levels of absurdity.

The Daily Mail reported:

NO Canada! Migrants bused north from NYC for free are TURNING BACK after getting frustrated with the weather conditions with one blaming ‘lots of snow’

However, just days after reports surfaced that some of the travelers were fleeing New York because of ‘drugs’ and homelessness, several are having second thoughts – with some outright refusing the offer because the country has ‘lots of snow.’

Speaking to the CBC, Ilze Thielmann, the director of a New York nonprofit that has already helped transport the migrants from New York to Montreal, attempted to explain the phenomenon, saying many had arrived expecting better access to jobs and health care, while others were simply turned off by the frigid conditions.

‘They think that there are all these jobs up there,’ Thielmann, 56, told the Canadian broadcaster Tuesday of the realities currently being thrust on the foreigners, many of whom have been in the US for the better part of a year.

She added that instead of braving the rest of the Canadian winter – set to persist for no more than another month – migrants, already fed-up with conditions, are opting to turn tail back to New York City.

‘They think they’re going to be able to get asylum very easily up there, and that’s just not the case.’

Karen Townsend of Hot Air adds this:

When leaders like Pierre Trudeau and Joe Biden virtue-signal about sanctuary cities and states welcoming illegal migrants, the migrants are listening. They expect to sashay into the United States and receive all the taxpayer-funded benefits available to make their lives comfortable. There are expectations. Now, even cold weather is the reason for complaints. You can’t make this stuff up.

The single male migrants probably would like to remain in a Manhattan hotel room where taxpayers are charged up to $450 per night to provide for them instead of a large migrant shelter. Who wouldn’t? It’s the sense of entitlement that is so irritating.

How did these people not know that Canada is cold in winter? Have they never seen a map of North America?

Migrants being bused to Canada are reportedly voicing concern over the cold weather seen in our neighbor to the north, with some even electing to turn back to the US – despite getting a free ride at the expense of taxpayers.
