Twitter's got jokes about Kellyanne Conway's latest alternative fact
I realize asking for rules in a world of alternative facts is naive, but here goes: Can we at least not make up massacres?
President Donald Trump advisor Kellyanne Conway invented something called the "Bowling Green massacre" on Thursday night, which she said took place in Bowling Green, Kentucky.

This did not happen.
As Conway later said in a tweet, she was referencing the arrest of two Iraqi refugees who had plotted to send weapons to al-Qaeda to help the extremist organization carry out attacks against United States soldiers.

Conway's invention comes just a couple weeks after Trump and Press Secretary Sean Spicer lied about the size of the president's inaugural crowd, which was followed by Conway making a brief TV appearance in which she said the administration was simply presenting "alternative facts."
