https://www.webmd.com/cold-and-flu/q...reak-originateThe 2009 swine flu outbreak originated in Veracruz, Mexico. Health workers traced the virus to a pig farm in this southeastern Mexican state. A young boy who lived nearby was among the first people to contract the swine flu.
https://virologyj.biomedcentral.com/...743-422X-6-207The swine-origin influenza A (H1N1) virus that appeared in 2009 and was first found in human beings in Mexico, is a reassortant with at least three parents. Six of the genes are closest in sequence to those of H1N2 'triple-reassortant' influenza viruses isolated from pigs in North America around 1999-2000.

Translation: If Democrats create a series of BS "fact-checking" sites to present Democrat opinion as fact and any other opinion as a lie, then the fact that there are several of them proves that they aren't caught lying through their teeth on a daily basis.
Nice logic there, Socrates.
