The statement 'If you’re going to lie, at least put some effort into it' is a sarcastic response to a discussion about the closure of a US agency focused on foreign disinformation. The tone is dismissive and implies that the previous statement by @anneapplebaum lacks credibility or effort in truthfulness. The intent seems to be to challenge or criticize the accuracy of the claim made by @anneapplebaum.
