Unverified Smear
How They Deceive You
Propaganda
Relies on high-confidence unverified claims like Bianco's Oath Keepers ties, derogatory mockery of Republicans, and omissions of polls showing GOP leads to falsely elevate Becerra.
Main Device
Unverified Smear
Chabria's unsubstantiated assertion that Bianco 'sort-of said' he was in the Oath Keepers links him to Jan. 6 without evidence, tainting him as a far-right extremist.
Archetype
California Democratic partisan
Boosts Democrat Becerra as frontrunner while deriding GOP candidates like Bianco and Hilton with loaded, pejorative language despite contrary polling data.
Deceives by unverified smears, emotional mockery of Republicans, and poll omissions to downplay GOP strength and inflate Becerra's viability.
