Drew,
You need to watch the P.O.S. Your sentence for veracity: using word as adjective; it's a noun (-1).
Impugn is a transitive verb. It needs an object. You follow the word with two prepositional phraqses (-1).
Duplicity is a noun. You use it as an adjective (correct form here would be duplicitous) (-1).
