Jill Stein caught attempting to retcon her support of the Brexit vote.

What Stein did that bothered me was she used a situation that was clearly supported by the same type of fear-mongering ignorance and hatred that’s fueling Donald Trump, and tried to twist Brexit into some sort of “victory” for those who support her set of talking points. She can try to spin Brexit however she likes, but the bottom line is, this was about racism, bigotry, Islamophobia and people who hate immigrants. So, with her praise of Brexit quite obvious in her statement in both the opening paragraph (calling it a “victory”) and the closing paragraph (saying we must “build on this momentum”), I was legitimately confused as to why I was getting messages from her supporters claiming I was blatantly lying about her, while accusing me of claiming she said something that she didn’t say.

And that’s when I realized why: She completely changed her statement. Not only did she completely change her official statement on her website, but she removed the original and didn’t indicate anywhere that she had made these changes. In other words, Stein changed her official statement on Brexit hoping nobody would notice, while also ridding any trace of her original comments where she called the vote a “victory” and encouraged people to “build on the momentum.”

…

It even appears that she was trying to divert people away from having any trace of her original post, as Jill Stein herself (or someone on her Facebook staff) tried to encourage someone to clear their cache since they apparently still had access to the old statement she didn’t want people seeing:
