Occupy Democrats and other major leftist social media pages are raging about President-elect Donald Trump’s victory and his cabinet picks, fear mongering about rising food prices, infant mortality rates, and misogyny.
On Feminist News, a Facebook page with over 1.8 million followers, they are spreading the lie that “Nine male GOP members of Congress have been given divorce papers by their wives since Donald Trump was reelected”:

One commenter received over 1,000 likes for claiming that the source is “in the Washington Post,” but according to fact-checkers at Snopes, the page completely fabricated that post.

Kennedy has been scaring the pharmaceutical industry for years and recently posted that the “FDA’s war on public health is about to end”:

“If you work for the FDA and are part of this corrupt system, I have two messages for you: 1. Preserve your records, and 2. Pack your bags,” he wrote in the weeks leading up to the election.
