Dana Loesch fought back on Saturday after being accused of crashing an anti-gun meeting near the National Rifle Associations annual meeting she was attending. But Loesch claimed that, at the time she was accused of crashing the rally, she was eating lunch with her family.
Shannon Watts, of the Bloomberg-funded gun control group Moms Demand Action, made the claim on Twitter, saying that Loesch had arrived uninvited with cameras.
.@NRA lobbyist @DLoesch has shown up uninvited, with a camera crew, at a church where Texas @MomsDemand volunteers are meeting to discuss gun safety in order to harass and intimidate volunteers. No, really. #NRAAM#NRAAM18

Loesch responded, saying that she had spent the day with her family and was eating lunch outside Dallas when Watts accused her of casing the Moms Demand Action meeting.
They lie because theyre incapable of adult discussions on policy. Ive been with my family all day and am literally finishing lunch right now. I believe Im owed an apology for this incendiary lie. pic.twitter.com/Hgbk2QIJKo

But when Loesch suggested that Watts owed her an apology, Watts initial accusation changed. While she had begun by claiming that Loesch herself had showed up, her later tweets only mention seeing members of Loeschs crew.
Volunteers and security in Dallas saw your crew casing our venue, as youre known to do at #NRAAM: https://t.co/ArQ6R4nDdMhttps://t.co/OKtHk26awZ

At the time of publication, Loesch was still waiting for that apology.
Let me know when @shannonrwatts finds the decency to apologize for outright lying about me. Meanwhile, Ill be heading down to #NRAAM shortly and will see you all on the exhibit floor! Tomorrow Ill be at the NRA booth at 12 to sign books and posters!
