Why this might not be an operation

This is an official press office response to a news article and an active federal investigation, so the forceful and defensive tone is consistent with standard political communications pushing back on coverage perceived as unfair. The repeated use of the word FACT and strong characterizations of opponents are common features of adversarial political statements rather than necessarily coordinated manipulation.
