Apropos, here is a nice breakdown of how we can know Kav is lying even without corroborating evidence:

Also, too: they know the Dems will take the blame if they flip Congress in November and then the economy finally starts tanking.

It’s also a Just World Fallacy: the universe must be essentially good and purposeful, and therefore bad things don’t happen to good people without reason.
