Vote contradicts: statement_vs_disclosure
Barr's 2019 vote for H.R. 5084 aligned him with 225 Democrats to mandate corporate DEI disclosure, yet during his 2025-2026 Senate campaign he positions himself as opposing DEI mandates. The Club for Growth PAC independently highlighted this contradiction in a $2 million ad campaign against him.

What this view assembles

  • Promises & violations — every documented commitment + each documented break, with primary sources.
  • Contradiction pairs — fact-against-fact entries from the contradictions ledger; the "said" appears in its year, the "did" appears in its year.
  • Vote-based analyses — for elected officials, every documented case where a vote diverged from a stated commitment.
  • Entity events — major dated events recorded against the entity (acquisitions, indictments, appointments, etc.).

This view DOES NOT auto-detect new drift candidates. It surfaces records that are already on file. If you spot an undocumented inversion, the curator workflow (admin) is where to add it.
