In Joe Biden’s latest speech he told a flurry of falsehoods at almost record pace.. and just the forest 20 minutes of his speech he was recorded telling roughly 21 lies. That’s almost one lie per minute in his speech and a significant majority of the statements he made were lies..
Out of his first 35 statements 20 of them were lies..
Without further Ado here is the list
**Biden falsely claims that his first 100 days have “turned America around” despite inheriting a booming recovery from trumpp and having the worst coronavirus cases in history**
https://fxn.ws/3dZONwE
**Biden falsely claims that coronavirus is the “worst pandemic in a century” despite data not backing that up**
**Biden falsely claims that pelosis recession was the “worst since the great depression”. .**
Ignoring the fact that multiple economic downturns had happened in the same time..
**falsely claims that the January 6th mostly peaceful protest was the “worst attack on our democracy since the civil War”.**
**Biden and falsely claims that Americans were going back to work in his address.**
That is false considering the very month he made that address they were millions more people filing for unemployment
**Biden falsely claims that in his first 100 days he put out the “fire” of coronavirus**
**falsely claims that he provided 220 million coronavirus vaccine shots.**
He fails to mention that over 35 million shots were delivered by the Trump Administration
This is also a misleading statement as he only delivered 220 million vaccines but people did not take 220 million vaccines. Only 140 million people got at least one shot and only 95 million were fully vaccinated at the time of his speech..
**Biden claimed without evidence that 90% of Americans lived within 5 mi of the vaccination site**
**Biden falsely takes credit for the increase in vaccinations while not mentioning that he took office right as the vaccine roll out had begun.**
Joe Biden did not have any part in the increase in vaccinations so much as he inherited the vaccine rollout that had started under Trump
**falsely claims that people are smiling at schools because of people being vaccinated.**
Ignoring that many schools stayed shut down and there is no evidence of this claim..
**Biden falsely claims that he kept his promise to send $1,400 checks to Americans**
This is a misleading and false claim as Joe Biden’s original promise was to send out $2,000 checks.
**falsely claims that 800k Americans signed up for the affordable Care Act because of his special enrollment.**
Many of those Americans would have signed up anyway what part of the yearly statistic
**falsely takes credit for “creating 1.3 million new jobs in 100 days””**
This is false and misleading as it fails to address the tens of thousands of jobs Joe Biden lost through his cancellation of projects such as the keystone Pipeline and his attacks on co-workers..
It also is misleading as 1.3 million jobs over the course of 3 months would be the worst monthly increase in jobs out of the entire previous 10 months..
During Donald Trump’s final months he had consecutive months each with over 1 million new jobs created.
At 1.3 million jobs over 3 months that is a drastic decrease in job creation from Donald Trump’s final six months in office
**Biden falsely claims credit that the economy will increase at 6% for the year**
**also falsely claims that that would be the largest in decades..**
Ignoring that it increased at a similar rate under Donald Trump’s final year in office and that the 6% number came from the beginning of the year. Before Joe Biden had even taken office
**Biden makes misleading claim that he wants blades for wind turbines made in America rather than china.**
Ignoring that as vice president under Obama he supported the trans-pacific partnership trade deal which would have seen countless more jobs outsourced to China..
**Joe Biden falsely claims that he wants to pass $15 minimum wage. Despite past comments claiming the opposite..**
**Biden falsely claims that infrastructure was the reason for the Texas power outages.**
The real reason was that dividing Administration refused Texas is request to increase their coal and nuclear plants production in preparation..
**Biden falsely claims that his American rescue plan would cut child poverty in half.**
According to PolitiFact if it happened it would only last for one year. Making that statement misleading
https://www.politifact.com/article/2021/feb/25/joe-bidens-plan-cut-child-poverty-half-what-you-ne/
**Biden falsely claims that America spends less than 1% of its GDP on research and development..** according to the World Bank it’s 2.2%
https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/GB.XPD.RSDV.GD.ZS?view=map
Biden made that last claim at the 21.98 minute mark in his speech
Roughly 20 lies in the first 22 minutes..
It is almost one lie per minute. And certainly a record number of lies in such a short time span for any president..
Biden had a history of playing fast and loose
[with the truth](https://thefederalist.com/2021/01/22/heres-the-full-list-of-every-lie-joe-biden-has-told-as-president/)
. And in general has continually proven to lie more than any president in history..
Biden Claims His Administration Has Control Of The Border Crisis
In an interview with NBC’s Craig Melvin on “Today,” Biden falsely claimed that his administration successfully reigned in the Southern border crisis.
“It’s way down now, we’ve now gotten control,” Biden said.
Biden Says Banning ‘Assault Weapons’ Reduced Gun Violence
And Mass Shootings
Biden said that former President Bill Clinton’s ban on assault weapons contributed to the decline in gun violence and mass shootings over 10 years in his joint address.
“A ban on assault weapons and high capacity magazines that hold 100 rounds that can be fired off in seconds…we beat the NRA. Mass shootings and gun violence declined. Check out the report over 10 years,” Biden said.
President Biden once again touts the lie that former President Clinton's ban on "assault weapons" reduced gun violence and mass shootings over 10 years.
Rep. @laurenboebert knows this is false. You can read @KatiePavlich's fact-check on the claim here: https://t.co/ALfjLcD7UM pic.twitter.com/1zCgpJ6MMN
— Townhall.com (@townhallcom) April 29, 2021
As noted by Townhall’s Katie Pavlich, a 2004 University of Pennsylvania Center of Criminology funded by the Department of Justice found that the “ban cannot be credited with a decrease in violence carried out with firearms.”
Biden Brags That COVID Spending Bill Was Bipartisan Effort. It Wasn’t.
During his first address to a joint session of Congress, Biden said that his $1.9 trillion COVID spending bill was a bipartisan effort.
“What else have we done in those first 100 days? We kept our commitment — Democrats and Republicans — of sending $1,400 rescue checks to 85 percent of American households. We’ve already sent more than 160 million checks out the door,” Biden said.
No Republicans, however, voted for the bill which was jammed through the Democrat-controlled Congress using budget reconciliation. While Biden met with members of the GOP about the legislation to discuss changes, he ultimately refused to compromise on its price.
Biden Admin Repeats Fake News Russia Bounty Story To Justify Sanctions
The White House used a recently discredited narrative to justify enacting sanctions against Russia this week.
New reports state that U.S. intelligence had “low to moderate” confidence in a story claiming that Russia offered members of the Taliban bounties in exchange for killing American soldiers, but the Biden administration cited the narrative as one of the reasons Russia should be punished. Not only was the Russia bounty story mentioned in the White House “fact sheet” detailing the sanctions but it was also echoed by government officials.

Despite former President Donald Trump’s insistence in 2020 that the story was “fake news,” corporate media immediately latched onto the narrative and promoted it as fact. Many of the same news organizations that peddled the story have yet to walk back their previous coverage.
Biden Makes Misleading Statements About Gun Delay For 2015 Charleston Shooter
During his announcement of new gun control executive orders, Biden claimed that it was a 3-day FBI background check delay called the “Charleston loophole” that allowed Dylann Roof to execute the 2015 Charleston church shooting.
“What happened is someone was allowed to get the gun used to kill those innocent people at a church service,” Biden said. “If the FBI didn’t complete the background check within three days. There was a process. If it wasn’t done in three days, according to the Charleston loophole, you get to buy the gun.”
As the Washington Free Beacon notes, not only did Roof shot up the church more than two months after his background check was delayed, but “the FBI did not find the records that should have prohibited him from buying a gun” due to a mistake by the agency.
Biden Insists That Gun Manufacturers Can’t Be Sued
Biden insisted during his gun control executive order announcement that gun manufacturers can’t be sued.
“People don’t realize the only industry in America, a billion-dollar industry, that can’t be sued, that are exempt from being sued, are gun manufacturers,” Biden said. “This is the only outfit that is exempt from being sued.”
As noted by The Washington Free Beacon, multiple gun manufacturers such as Remington and Sig Sauer have been sued over design flaws and defects in their products. The Free Beacon also noted that while the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act protects manufacturers from lawsuits “stemming from the criminal misuse of guns by third parties,” other industries including pharmaceutical companies tasked with creating the COVID-19 are protected have immunity under the 2005 Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness Act.
Biden Says Purchases At Gun Shows Don’t Require Background Checks
During his announcement introducing multiple executive gun control orders, Biden said that background checks are not required for purchases at gun shows.
“Most people don’t know when you walk into a store and you buy a gun, you have a background check but you go to a gun show, you can buy whatever you want with no background check,” Biden claimed.
BIDEN: "You go to a gun show, you can buy whatever you want–no background check." pic.twitter.com/TbvfDPEwlp
— Daily Caller (@DailyCaller) April 8, 2021
While private firearm sellers in some states may complete gun show transactions without a background check, what many Democrats often label as the “gun show loophole,” any gun dealers with a federal firearms license are required to run background checks on customers investing in a weapon.
When confronted with a fact-check on Biden’s comments, the White House denied the president’s words just minutes after he stated them.
“No, it’s not his belief,” Press Secretary Jen Psaki said on Thursday. “He believes that gun that background check should be universal…we know what his position is.”
A reporter just asked Jen Psaki why Biden lied and said, "You go to a gun show, you can buy what you want and no background check."
Psaki just said the complete OPPOSITE and said "it is not his belief."

Biden Repeats Spurious Claims About Georgia’s New Election Law
Biden told ESPN that Georgia’s new election reform law not only bans water and food in polling lines but also closes polls early so working people can’t vote.
“This is Jim Crow on steroids, but they’re doing it in Georgia and 40 other states,” Biden said. “Imagine passing a law saying you cannot provide water or food for someone standing in line to vote. Come on. Are you going to close a polling place at 5:00, where can people just get off? This is all about people, working folks, ordinary folks that I grew up with, from being able to vote.”
Despite Biden’s claims, nothing in the new legislation suggests that voting hours should end early. In fact, the law mandates that polls be open at least 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. during early voting and offered counties the option to extend those hours to 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. if necessary, a provision the Washington Post fact-checkers even acknowledged. The new law also provides exceptions for “poll officers” to give voters food and water as long as they are not provided by political interest groups.
Biden Insists ‘No One Making Under $400k Will See Their Federal Taxes Go Up’
During his introduction of a $2 trillion infrastructure plan, Biden repeated the lie that “no one making under $400,000 will see their federal taxes go up, period.”
“This is not about penalizing anyone. I have nothing against millionaires and billionaires. I believe in American capitalism. I want everyone to do well,” Biden said. “Right now a middle-class couple, a firefighter and a teacher with two kids, making a combined salary of say $110,000 to $120,000 a year pays 22 cents for each additional dollar they earn in federal income tax. But a multinational corporation that builds a factory abroad, jobs overseas … is bad for American competitiveness, deeply unfair to the middle-class families, wrong for our future.”
BIDEN: "No one making under $400,000 will see their federal taxes go up, period." pic.twitter.com/3offgNfVEY
— Daily Caller (@DailyCaller) March 31, 2021
Despite months of promises from Biden and his team on the campaign trail and from the debate stage, White House press secretary Jen Psaki recently clarified that individuals making $200,000 a year who are married to someone making similar amounts will be subject to the proposed tax hike.
Biden Repeats Falsehoods About Trump’s Tax Cut
Less than one week after he stated the claim during his first press conference, Biden insisted that “83 percent of the money went to the top 1 percent” because of Trump’s tax cuts.
Biden says again that in Trump tax cuts, "83% of the money went to the top 1%." That's a think tank projection of what would happen in 2027 if its individual cuts expired after 2025 as scheduled, not what has happened already; estimate is top 1% got 21% in 2018, get 25% in 2025.
— Daniel Dale (@ddale8) March 31, 2021
As previously noted by The Federalist and other outlets, Trump’s tax plan not only benefitted Americans across the working, middle, and upper classes, but it also contributed to a large decrease in unemployment and underemployment. The 83 percent figure often touted by Biden, fact-checkers determined as early as 2018, is “true for 2027 but only because most of the individual income tax changes expire by then,” but not other years.
Biden Says Georgia’s Election Law Cuts Back Voting Hours for Working Americans
Biden is spreading misinformation that Georgia’s new election law ends voting hours early, making it difficult for working Americans to get to the polls after they leave their jobs for the day.
“What I’m worried about is how un-American this whole initiative is. It’s sick. It’s sick … deciding that you’re going to end voting at 5:00 when working people are just getting off work,” the president said during his first press conference.
Biden repeated the falsehood in an official statement released just one day after his presser, claiming that “among the outrageous parts of this new state law, it ends voting hours early so working people can’t cast their vote after their shift is over.
While Biden insists the new law is “un-American” and “sick,” nothing in the new legislation suggests that voting hours should end early. In fact, the law mandates that polls be open at least 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. during early voting and offered counties the option to extend those hours to 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. if necessary, a provision the Washington Post fact-checkers even acknowledged.
Biden Insists He Is Tough on China
During his first presser, Biden claimed he will “deal with China effectively” by “investing in American workers and American science” and “hold China accountable.”
The Committee on Ways and Means, however, says, “China’s corporate income tax rate is 25 percent, despite being a Communist nation” and that Biden’s promise to “increase our federal rate to 28 percent, on top of state corporate taxes, exposes American firms to takeovers from competitors based in Communist China.”
The committee also noted that Biden “has so far not committed to any action to enforce the China Phase One Agreement achieved during the Trump Administration, which included very specific requirements that protect American workers.”
Biden Makes Misleading Claim About R&D Investments
In his first official press event nine weeks into office, Biden claimed that research and development investments have consistently fallen since the 1960s.
“Back in the 1960s, America invested more than 2 percent of GDP in pure research and investment in science. Today it is 0.7 percent,” Biden stated.
Research and development spending, however, is at its highest point and accounted for more than 3 percent of the real GDP before the COVID-19 economic shutdown.
Biden Falsely States Top Corporations Don’t ‘Pay a Cent in Taxes’
During his first press conference, Biden said top corporations in the United States don’t put any money toward taxes.
“Ninety of the Fortune 500 companies making billions of dollars are not paying a cent in taxes,” Biden said, “reducing taxes to a point that people who are making, you know, if you’re a husband and wife, school teacher, and a cop, you’re paying at a higher rate than the average person making a billion dollars a year.”
The Committee on Ways and Means, however, said that the claims Biden made relied on information that “continually confused the difference between taxable income and financial statements.”
“From sales taxes to property taxes to payroll taxes, Fortune 500 companies pay billions of dollars in taxes to local, state, and federal government,” they wrote in a fact check. “Federal tax laws provide important bipartisan tax incentives to encourage specific economic activity — including investments in R&D, energy innovation, low-income housing, and distressed communities — which reduces taxable income without changing financial statement profits.”
Biden Says Trump’s Tax Cuts Only Helped the Rich
During his press first official press event, Biden falsely claimed that the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 did not put “money in ordinary people’s pockets” and instead only helped the “top 1 percent.”
“Do you hear them complain when they passed [a] close to $2 trillion Trump tax cut, with 83 percent going to the top 1 percent? Do you hear them talk about that at all?” Biden asked.
Not only did Trump’s tax cut benefit Americans across the working, middle, and upper classes, a fact even corporate media outlets noted, but it also contributed to a large decrease in unemployment and underemployment. The 83 percent figure often touted by Democrats, fact-checkers determined in 2018, is “true for 2027 but only because most of the individual income tax changes expire by then,” but not other years.
Biden Says Majority of Migrant Families that Cross Border Are Sent Back
Biden said in his first press conference 64 days after inauguration that a majority of the migrant families crossing the border illegally are sent back.
“If you take a look at the number of people are coming, the vast majority, the overwhelming majority of people coming to the border and crossing are being sent back,” Biden said at the White House. “We’re sending back the vast majority of the families that are coming.”
According to Customs and Border Protection data, however, a fraction of the 20,000 family units apprehended have been sent back.
Further, Michelle Hackman, who covers immigration for the Wall Street Journal, reported on March 23 that an internal document she reviewed with her colleagues found that the weekend prior to Biden’s press conference, “only about 10 percent of families were being expelled.”

Biden Says Trump Admin Didn’t Address Communist China’s Human Rights Abuses
During his first official press conference, Biden implied that his predecessor former President Donald Trump did not address communist China’s human rights abuses.
“I made it clear that no American president, at least one did, but no American president ever backed down from speaking out of what’s happened to the Uyghurs, what’s happened in Hong Kong, what’s happening in the country. That’s who we are,” Biden said. “The moment a president walks away from that, as the last one did, is the moment we begin to lose our legitimacy around the world.”
The Trump administration, however, did directly condemn China’s actions against the minority Muslim population located in the Xinjiang province as a genocide before leaving office. Following investigations into the CCP’s use of mass imprisonment of more than 1 million people, forced labor, forced sterilization, torture, and limits on religious freedom, freedom of expression, and freedom of movement, then-Secretary of State Mike Pompeo declared that the United States has definitively evaluated and labeled these actions by the CCP as “crimes against humanity.”
Biden Says Migrants Not Flooding the Border Because of Him
During his first press conference, Biden claimed illegal aliens are not crossing the southern U.S. border because of his rhetoric and open border policies, but because migrants’ chances of “dying on the way because of the heat in the desert” are lower in January, February, and March and because of the instability in their home countries.
“I guess I should be flattered people are coming because I’m a nice guy. … The truth of the matter is, nothing has changed. … That’s not the reason they’re coming. The reason they are coming is that it’s the time they can travel with the least likelihood of dying on the way because of the heat in the desert, number one,” Biden said. “Number two, they’re coming because of the circumstances in [their] country.”
While Biden might be convinced people are flooding to the U.S.-Mexico border in a normal immigration cycle, Mexico’s President Andrés Manuel López Obrador recently said it is the new president’s migration policies and rhetoric that sparked hopeful “expectations” and created the border crisis.
“Expectations were created that with the government of President Biden, there would be a better treatment of migrants. And this has caused Central American migrants, and also from our country, wanting to cross the border, thinking that it is easier to do so,” López Obrador said, just weeks after he told reporters that many of those crossing the border illegally view Biden as “the migrant president.”
Some illegal aliens who crossed the border have also testified that Biden was the deciding factor for why they chose to come to the U.S.
“So did you come here because Joe Biden was elected president?” ABC’s Martha Raddatz pressed.
“Basically. Basically,” one migrant father replied. “The main thing was the violence in our country. And the second thing, I think, was Joe Biden.”
Biden White House Claims Regular Talks With McConnell
White House press secretary Jen Psaki claimed at a March 24 briefing that the president regularly speaks with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell.
McConnell’s office, however, told NBC News reporter Julie Tsirkin that the two have only spoken once since the inauguration in January, which focused on the military coup in Myanmar.
Biden Lowers Tax Hike Threshold After Promising It Would Only Affect People Making Over $400K
While the president recently told ABC’s George Stephanopoulos that his bid to increase taxes would only apply to “anybody making more than $400,000,” and that any individual making less than that amount “won’t see one single penny in additional federal tax,” White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki recently clarified that individuals making $200,000 a year who are married to someone making similar amounts will be subject to the proposed tax hike.
This revelation comes after months of promises from Biden and his team on the campaign trail and from the debate stage that their attempts to raise taxes would not affect individuals making under $400,000 a year but eventually morphed into households making under $400,000 a year. Studies from at least five economic analysis institutions suggest, “Biden’s proposals would increase taxes, on average, for households at every income level” and that his intention to repeal Trump’s tax cuts would only further this outcome.
Biden Makes Sweeping Projection About Child Poverty
During his March 11 address, Biden said the COVID-19 spending bill “will cut child poverty in this country in half, according to the experts.”
While researchers at certain think tanks and universities conceded that portions of the American Rescue Plan have the potential to “reduce child poverty by more than half in 2021,” the provisions in the bill apply only to this year, leaving the long-term effects of the spending bill on child poverty a mystery. There is no current evidence to suggest that the policies included in the plan will have a long-lasting effect on child poverty.
Biden Overreports Number of Vaccinated American 65 and Older
In his address on March 11, Biden lied about when the COVID-19 vaccine first became available in the United States. He also misspoke about the number of Americans 65 and older who have received the vaccine.
“When I took office 50 days ago, only 8 percent of Americans — after months — only 8 percent of those over the age of 65 had gotten their first vaccination,” Biden said. “Today that number is 65 percent.”
The vaccine, however, was not available for months before Biden took office. The first COVID-19 vaccine dose in the United States was administered on Dec. 14, just one month before the new president transitioned into the White House. Not only was Biden wrong about when the shots first became available, but he also lied that 65 percent of Americans 65 years old and above have been vaccinated. As of Thursday, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has said that only 62.4 percent of those 65 and older received at least one round of the vaccine, not 65 percent.
Biden Claims US COVID Death Toll Exceeds Three Wars and 9/11
During his address to the nation on March 11, Biden falsely claimed that the total number of coronavirus deaths in the U.S. was more than those in World War I, World War II, the Vietnam War, and 9/11.
“I carry a card in my pocket with a number of Americans who have died from COVID to date. It’s on the back of my schedule.
As of now, total deaths in America: 527,726. That’s more deaths than World War I, World War II, the Vietnam War, and 9/11 combined,” Biden stated.
While Biden is correct in saying that at least 527,726 Americans have reportedly died from coronavirus, the nation’s death toll does not exceed the fatalities that resulted from the three wars and one terrorist attack he mentioned in his speech. Even without 9/11 included, more than 580,000 people died fighting in the aforementioned wars. “World War I: 116,516 deaths, World War II: 405,399, Vietnam: 58,220” the Washington Post reported.
Biden Claims Coronavirus Was Met with Silence
In his prime time address to the nation on March 11, Biden claimed the novel Wuhan coronavirus “was met with silence and spread unchecked.”
The Trump administration, however, convened a White House coronavirus task force, which CNN complained was too white, while congressional Democrats were pursuing partisan impeachment proceedings.
Read a thorough chronology of the Trump administration’s early actions here.
Biden Says Goal of 100 Million Vaccine Shots in 100 Days Was Tough for Him to Meet
Biden claimed his administration’s initial goal of administering 100 million shots in his first 100 days was difficult to meet in his prime time address on March 11.
“When I came into office, you may recall, I set a goal that many of you said was kind of way over the top,” Biden said. “I said I intended to get 100 million shots in people’s arms with my first 100 days in office.”
That vaccination pace, however, had already been met by his White House predecessor. About 1.3 million Americans were vaccinated on Biden’s first full day in office.
Biden Says COVID Spending Bill Garnered Bipartisan Support
Shortly after Democrats in the Senate passed the $1.9 trillion COVID-19 spending bill, Biden falsely claimed in a celebratory speech that the legislation garnered bipartisan support.
“Quite frankly, without the overwhelming bipartisan support of the American people, this would not have happened. Elected officials heard overwhelming public support. Every public opinion poll showed overwhelming support for this plan,” Biden said.

Despite Biden’s rhetoric pretending that the legislation received support from people on both sides of the political aisle, every Republican senator voted against passing the massive bill. Last month, the White House agreed to meet with 10 Republicans to discuss a smaller relief proposal that cut spending by almost two-thirds. Biden, who launched his presidency on a platform of unifying the country and toning down partisanship, however, did not budge on his decision to push the legislation through both chambers of Congress without GOP support.
Biden and White House Deny Border Crisis as Crossings Surge
Biden denied that there is a crisis at the border after departing a White House briefing in early March evaluating how to provide more than 20,000 beds for the largest projected influx of unaccompanied migrant children who are crossing the U.S.-Mexico border.
“We’ll be able to handle it,” Biden told reporters as he was escorted out of the room by his vice president.
Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas also told reporters at the beginning of March that there is no crisis at the southern border, despite his own agency’s projections that more than 117,000 unaccompanied minors will attempt to cross the U.S.-Mexico border this year, numbers that are on track to exceed the current record of minors in federal custody by 45 percent. More than 13,000 of them are expected to come to the United States in May, giving the Biden administration just two months to sort out its plans for housing migrant minors after refusing to expel them.
“Do you believe that right now there is a crisis at the border?” a reporter asked.
“No,” Mayorkas said. “There is a challenge at the border that we are managing. … The men and women of the Department of Homeland Security are working around the clock seven days a week to ensure that we do not have a crisis at the border, that we manage the challenge, as acute as the challenge is.”
Biden Says Administration Not Opening New Migrant Centers
Biden falsely claimed during a February interview with Univision that the new administration is merely reopening migrant camps operational during the Trump administration even as the Biden White House creates new ones.
“They opened up one, one that was a former one used in the administration in the last administration,” Biden said. “Our hope and expectation is that won’t stay open very long and that we’ll be able to provide for every kid who comes across the border safely.”
https://twitter.com/BonillaJL/status/1365450210227458051?s=20
Border agents opened up a new facility in Donna, Texas, three weeks ago, according to the Washington Post, while creating new camps in Del Rio, Texas, and Arizona.
Biden Repeats False Claim That Trump Told Public to Inject Bleach
Biden repeated the debunked story, rated false even by left-leaning PolitiFact, that President Donald Trump recommended during a White House coronavirus press briefing to inject bleach.
“I think there’s a growing awareness that injecting bleach into your system doesn’t do it for you,” Biden said in remarks to black essential workers.
Trump, however, said no such thing, as Biden also asserted last summer. Instead, Trump was speaking on the role of disinfectants help in preventing serious infection with viruses such as the novel Wuhan coronavirus.
Biden Lies Again About Not Inheriting a Vaccine Plan
During his visit to the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine manufacturing plant in mid-February, Biden once again falsely claimed that his administration did not inherit a vaccine plan from former President Donald Trump.
“Just over four weeks ago, America had no real plan to vaccinate most of the country,” Biden said. “My predecessors — as my mother would say, God love ’em — failed to order enough vaccines, failed to mobilize the effort to administer the shots, failed to set up vaccine centers. That changed the moment we took office.”
Despite this repeated claim from Biden as well as Vice President Kamala Harris and White House press secretary Jen Psaki, officials such as Anthony Fauci have reassured the public that the Trump administration and Operation Warp Speed did not leave the Biden administration empty-handed.
“We’re certainly not starting from scratch, because there is activity going on in the distribution,” Fauci said, disputing the White House’s claims.
Operation Warp Speed, the Trump administration’s project to facilitate the creation and distribution of the vaccine, also passed along a plan to Biden and his team once they assumed office.
Biden Says There Is ‘Overwhelming Consensus’ to Pass Excessive COVID Spending
During a February CNN town hall with Anderson Cooper, Biden claimed there was “overwhelming consensus” to pass a coronavirus spending bill with excessive funding.
I’m committed to pass — look, here’s — some of you are probably economists or college professors or you’re teachers in school. This is the first time in my career — and as you can tell, I’m over 30 — the first time in my career that there is a consensus among economists left, right, and center that is over — and including the IMF and in Europe, that overwhelming consensus is, in order to grow the economy a year, two, three, and four down the line, we can’t spend too much.
A column in the Wall Street Journal published in January disproves Biden’s erroneous assertion by highlighting remarks from several of Biden’s own political allies on the left who refute the idea of passing a gargantuan package.
Another article in the New Yorker published days before Biden’s CNN appearance cited warnings over Biden’s $1.9 trillion relief package by prominent economists.
“The 1.9 trillion program could overheat the economy so badly as to be counterproductive,” Olivier Blanchard, a former chief economist at the International Monetary Fund, tweeted.
Biden Denies Psaki Said Schools Should Open Just One Day a Week
The same night he claimed a COVID-19 vaccine was not created until after he joined the White House, Biden denied that White House press secretary Jen Psaki ever said schools should be open just one day a week, claiming it was simply “not true” and eventually clarifying his statement to say it was “mistaken in communication.”
At the beginning of February, Psaki proudly declared that Biden’s goal to have children back to classroom learning by his 100th day in office, in April, only applied to half the country’s schools and only requires one day of in-person learning — meaning just 50 percent of kids attending school for about five days total would accomplish the “goal.” When a reporter asked her to clarify the Biden administration’s position, Psaki doubled down on the plan to require just one day of in-person learning per week in “the majority of schools.” Days later, the White House flip-flopped its position on school reopenings, and Psaki told reporters that Biden’s plan was to ensure every school would be open “five days a week.”
Biden Claims COVID Vaccine Wasn’t Around When He Assumed Office
During a CNN town hall on Feb. 16, Biden falsely claimed the United States did not have a COVID-19 vaccine when he transitioned into the White House in late January.
Against faulty predictions from journalists, so-called experts, and verified Twitter users who cast doubt on former-President Donald Trump’s Operation Warp Speed, the first round of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine was administered in the United States to health care workers in mid-December following the Food and Drug Administration’s emergency use and mass distribution approval. The FDA also applied emergency authorization to the Moderna vaccine in mid-December, approving it for widespread distribution and use long before Biden joined the White House.
Biden received both doses of the Pfizer COVID vaccine before he was inaugurated.
Biden Statement on Impeachment Falsely Attributes Officer’s Death to Capitol Riot
Biden’s statement on Trump’s impeachment acquittal opened with the assertion that a Capitol police officer who died on the day of the January riots was killed by the mob of Trump supporters storming the congressional complex.
“It was nearly two weeks ago that Jill and I paid our respects to Capitol Police officer Brian Sicknick, who laid in honor in the Rotunda after losing his life protecting the Capitol from a riotous, violent mob on January 6, 2021,” Biden said.
There is absolutely no evidence to prove, however, that Sicknick was brutally killed by the mob that day, a claim amplified by Democrats throughout the impeachment proceedings with the help of legacy outlets such as the New York Times, which quietly later issued a correction as the trial came to a close.
Kamala Harris Repeats Bogus Claim New White House Starting ‘From Scratch’ on Vaccines
Vice President Kamala Harris repeated the bogus claim that the Biden White House has been forced to start “from scratch” to handle the coronavirus vaccine rollout.
“We’re starting from scratch,” Harris said, “on something that’s been raging for almost an entire year.”
Even National Institutes of Health Director Anthony Fauci rejected the assertion made by White House officials in January, as the Trump administration reached the 1 million shots-a-day threshold Biden has attempted to claim credit for.
Biden Said He Would Fire Staff ‘On the Spot’ for ‘Disrepect.’ Hasn’t Fired Deputy Press Secretary
Biden issued a stark warning to about 1,000 presidential appointees upon taking the reins of the Oval Office.
“If you’re ever working with me and I hear you treat another colleague with disrespect or talk down to someone, I promise you, I will fire you on the spot — on the spot. No ifs, ands, or buts,” Biden said.
On Feb. 12, however, Vanity Fair reported White House deputy press secretary TJ Ducklo threatened a Politico reporter inquiring about a romantic relationship with an Axios political reporter tasked with covering the vice president after leaving the Biden beat.
“I will destroy you,” Ducklo reportedly threatened Politico’s Tara Palmeri, if the paper published the story.
Instead of unemployment, however, Ducklo was given a one-week suspension without pay.
Biden Said He ‘Misspoke’ When Claiming US Would Reach Only 100 Million Vaccines in 100 Days
Biden said during a Jan. 25 press conference he “misspoke” when claiming the United States would reach only 100 million coronavirus vaccine shots given out within the administration’s first 100 days, a pace reached by the Trump administration. Biden then emphasized a hope of reaching 150 million instead.
The White House COVID-19 Response Team tweeted two days later, however, that the Biden administration’s goal of 100 million doses in 100 days hasn’t changed.
Biden Trashed Trump’s China Travel Ban as Xenophobic Before Signing His Own
When Trump implemented a travel ban on China in the early days of the coronavirus pandemic, then-candidate Biden railed against the executive action as “xenophobic,” claiming such restrictions do not work.
Less than a year later, Biden has implemented his own travel bans on South Africa, Brazil, Great Britain, and 26 other European countries in the second week of his presidency.
Biden Team: Trump Vaccination Plan ‘Worse Than We Could Have Imagined’
After Biden staffers lied, telling CNN there was “nothing for us to rework” in terms of a vaccination distribution plan, White House press secretary Jen Psaki admitted at the podium during a Jan. 25 briefing that there was a plan — they just won’t give credit. Psaki told reporters the plan from the Trump White House was “much worse than we could have imagined.”
The plan inherited by the Biden White House, however, has already put the new administration on a trajectory to reach its goal of getting 100 million people vaccinated within its first 100 days.
Below is the chart outline for the distribution process under Operation Warp Speed, which produced not one, but two coronavirus vaccines in record time.
