• Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy portrayed himself as a truth-teller during the fourth presidential primary debate in Alabama.
• “If you want somebody who’s going to speak truth to power, then vote for somebody who’s going to speak the truth to you,” he said Wednesday night in Tuscaloosa. But he followed that statement with false claims and a conspiracy theory.
