Mainstream media provided a rare glimpse of honest reporting on the Biden Administration.
ABC host Jonathan Karl told White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre that the Biden Administration is using “Orwellian” language by referring to the “Inflation Reduction Act.”
“Isn’t it almost Orwellian? How can you call it the Inflation Reduction Act when the nonpartisan experts say it’s not gonna bring inflation down?” Karl asked Jean-Pierre.
“I appreciate the question,” Jean-Pierre responded.

Infowars reported:
She then managed to prove Karl’s point by claiming “It is going to fight inflation, it has been proven and said by economists across the board, on the Republican side and the Democrat side.”
Biden himself spent much of last week suggesting that there is NO inflation, despite federal Consumer Price Index data highlighting that annual inflation dropped only marginally to 8.5 percent, still nearly a four-decade high:
“Today, we received news that our economy had 0 percent inflation in the month of July, 0 percent,” Biden said, adding “Here’s what that means: while the price of some things go up. went up last month, the price of other things went down by the same amount. The result? Zero inflation last month.”
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre parroted the claim “that our economy had 0% inflation in July.”
This is wild. Do you know this is a lie?

Yes, the blatant lies from the Biden Administration define “Orwellian.”
Economists who disagree with the regime’s lies are being ‘fact checked.’
As Summit News noted, Facebook ‘fact checked’ an experienced economist for saying the U.S. is currently in a recession.
Phil Magness, a researcher and educator with the American Institute for Economic Research, reacted to the incident by commenting “We live in an Orwellian hell-scape.”
Facebook uses ‘independent’ fact checkers at Politifact, a brazenly partisan operation, which ‘corrected’ Magness’ post about the Biden administration attempting to change the definition of a recession.

Magness provided examples of previous statements by Biden himself about being in a recession that were never fact checked:
Or the time Biden declared we were in a recession in September 2020? No fact-check there either. pic.twitter.com/a4covaK6dO

Can somebody show me the NBER determination that said we were in a recession in October 2020? Asking for a friend… https://t.co/X55NPvl5Pq

The entire media "fact checking" industry is an exercise in politically motivated fraud. pic.twitter.com/FjrKZe3iFi
