[Liar in Chief] AP FACT CHECK: Trump omits facts in blaming Schumer

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/congress/ap-fact-check-trump-omits-facts-in-blaming-schumer/2017/11/01/eab47aa4-bf16-11e7-9294-705f80164f6e_story.html

        President Donald Trump omitted key facts in his rush Wednesday
        to blame Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer for an immigration
        program that Trump says was used by the Uzbek national accused
        of carrying out a deadly truck attack in New York City ...
        Sen. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., said on Twitter that Trump was
        unfairly blaming Schumer for the diversity visa program.
        Flake, one of Trump's chief Republican foes in Congress, said
        Schumer was among a group of eight Republican and Democratic
        senators who proposed eliminating the program three years ago
        as part of a broader bipartisan bill to overhaul U.S.
        immigration laws.  Flake, who served on that "Gang of Eight"
        with Schumer, said: "I know. I was there."
