The Big Lie: Believe Conway, not your own memory. When the two disagree, you must revise your memory to belief what you are told.
The truth: This is classic doublethink. Do not believe the things this woman says, for they are lies and she is a liar.
The underlying lie: We are unsafe, and terrorists have the capability to murder us in our homes. The only way to be safe is to close the borders.
The Truth: These are lies. More people are killed by toddlers with guns in a year than by terrorists. Our refuges already go through years of vetting, including by the State department. Closing borders is expensive, inhuman, ineffective, and probably illegal.
The lesser lie: A massacre called bowling green occurred.
The truth: This never happened. There was no massacre.
