Proper-wing pundit and creator Dinesh D’Souza has now admitted that the central premise of his election conspiracy movie and accompanying e book, “2,000 Mules,” is fake.
Within the 2022 movie, D’Souza cited the right-wing activist group True the Vote to say mobile phone geolocation knowledge proved that volunteers for nonprofits had been stuffing poll containers with votes in favor of President Joe Biden, serving to him to defeat Donald Trump within the 2020 election.
“We recently learned that surveillance videos used in the film may not have actually been correlated with the geolocation data,” stated a assertion quietly posted to D’Souza’s web site on Monday.
“I now understand that the surveillance videos used in the film were characterized on the basis of inaccurate information provided to me and my team. If I had known then that the videos were not linked to geolocation data, I would have clarified this and produced and edited the film differently,” he added.
D’Souza’s observe apologized to Mark Andrews, a Georgia man recorded on video footage that was used within the film together with his face blurred. Within the authentic model of the movie, D’Souza narrated the scene with Andrews and stated, “What you are seeing is a crime. These are fraudulent votes.”
