and then either find something they will scream to right wing media about or if nothing is found they will minimize their correction so that there is always a louder continuing refrain about immigrants, corruption, crime, vote fraud etc etc etc because they want to cut funding for or even get rid of programs and steer the funds toward programs they can grift from.
