TL;DR Summary

A tweet showing a damaged Walmart with a caption blaming Democrats for the destruction has gone viral on Twitter, but local police say it's misleading and have been trying to get Twitter to intervene. The tweet has caused 911 calls and fear in the community. The video shows standing water on the floor, suggesting it could be from a natural disaster, and old clips from 2020 have been circulating as current looting. The Fairfield Police Department even attempted to get Elon Musk's attention with a meme. As of publication time, the tweet has not been removed, but a tagline has been added stating that the police deny any such incident occurred.
