White House DELETES Tweet Fact-Checked by CNN and Twitter

Has the Biden Administration lost the fact checkers?

The White House’s latest attempt to rebrand economic despair as good news was so pathetic that even CNN’s fact-checker Daniel Dale called them out.

“Seniors are getting the biggest increase in their Social Security checks in 10 years through President Biden’s leadership,” the White House claimed in a Tuesday tweet.

There’s a glaring problem with that statement.

Social security checks, by law, are tied to inflation – which has skyrocketed.

“That’s quite the spin,” Dale responded, adding “The size of Social Security checks is linked, by law, to inflation. This year’s increase is unusually big because the inflation rate is unusually big.”

when you've lost the "fact checkers"… https://t.co/XKFyvecGx2

Before the White House deleted the tweet, Twitter also fact-checked the statement.

“Seniors will receive a large Social Security benefit increase due to the annual cost of living adjustment, which is based on the inflation rate,” the fact-check stated.

“President Nixon in 1972 signed into law automatic benefit adjustments tied to the Consumer Price Index.”

“The community notes feature is awesome,” Elon Musk tweeted.

“Our goal is to make Twitter the most accurate source of information on Earth, without regard to political affiliation.”

In other news, Joe Biden said that inflation is a problem because of the “war in Iraq… excuse me, the war in Ukraine,” adding “I’m thinking about Iraq because that’s where my son died.”

Biden’s son was never in Iraq and died on US soil of brain cancer.

And what did the regime media call Biden’s lie about his son? ‘Verbal fumbles’
