Biden's Lies and the Developing Crack with the Media Alliance


It would seem that just maybe the bloom has started to come off of the rose in the Biden leftist garden of corruption.  Even many reliable allies on the left have begun to criticize the egregiously corrupt Biden and his crime family.  The fact that even the democratic industrialized media (DIM) has started criticizing let alone covering the latest Biden classified documents debacle is telling in and of itself. 

Are they beginning to realize what average Americans with common sense have seen all along?  Biden is suffering from some form of mental degradation and in conjunction with his congenital lying and corruption and the fact that he knows where his co-conspirators’ skeletons are hidden has now made him a huge liability to the left.  Is this the beginning of the end for Biden?  Is the leftist establishment seeing enough real and potential problems with ol’ Joe to think it is time to throw him out?  Is the broadcasting of his lies and corruption to the American people a sign that they are even willing to put up with a President Kamala? 

Even Biden’s “reason” for running for the oval office was based on a demonstrably false lie.  When he announced his candidacy in 2019, Biden accused Trump of describing white nationalists who engaged in violence at Charlottesville, Virginia, in August 2017 as “very fine people.”  That was patently false.  Indeed, Trump said, “I’m not talking about the neo-Nazis and the white nationalists, because they should be condemned totally”.  Nonetheless, Biden hammered that lie over and over on the campaign trail.  Biden’s supposed reason for running was predicated on a lie from the beginning.

There have been a lifetime of lies told by Biden, often repeated even though they have been debunked as false.  This has been such a fixture of Biden’s “character” that The Republican National Committee compiled a list of 21 times Biden’s been truth-challenged since moving into 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

1. Biden claimed — on multiple occasions — he “used to drive” an 18-wheeler.  Biden rode in an 18-wheeler once nearly 50 years ago. He’s never driven one. https://t.co/o7Za8LaR4J

2. In November 2022, Biden claimed that he met with the “inventor” of insulin, but multiple scientists are credited with discovering insulin, and two died before the president was even born.

“Dr. Frederick Banting and professor John James Richard Macleod were awarded the Nobel Prize in medicine in 1923 for their 1921 discovery of insulin. Banting died in 1941 and Macleod in 1935. Biden was born in 1942,” the New York Post reported.  https://t.co/LJtBwkxeG5

“At the same event, Biden incorrectly stated that his late son Beau lost his life while serving in Iraq,” the Post further noted.  His son died of brain cancer in the United States.

3. In October 2022, Biden said he “had a house burn down with my wife in it” and said they “almost lost a couple firefighters.”  But the truth is in 2004, there was a “small fire” in Biden’s house caused by a lightning strike that was contained to the kitchen, and “there were no injuries.”  https://t.co/smEweQxg4E

 4. Also in October 2022, Biden claimed during a visit to Puerto Rico that he was “raised in the Puerto Rican community” in Delaware.  “We have a very, in relative terms, a large Puerto Rican population in Delaware relative to our population,” Biden said.  “According to the 1970 US Census, Delaware had about 2,154 people who were either born in Puerto Rico or descended from Puerto Rican parents — roughly 0.39% of the First State’s population of nearly 550,000 at the time,” the Post noted.  There is no evidence of Biden being raised in such a community accordingly.  https://t.co/OAziqOd0es

5. In September 2021, Biden recounted visiting the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh following the Oct. 2018 shooting that left 11 dead.  “Barb Feige, executive director of the Tree of Life, said that Biden did not visit the synagogue in the nearly three years since the anti-Semitic attack,” the Post reported, nor did he visit prior to it.  The synagogue said Biden never visited. https://t.co/9z0C8jo0fl

6. In December 2021, Biden said that he served as a “liaison” to Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir during the Six-Day War in 1967. Biden was in law school at the time, and Meir didn’t become PM until 1969. He was apparently referring to the Yom Kippur War, which took place in 1973, but Fox News reported it is unclear what he meant about being a liaison during the war, because the record shows a then-Sen. Biden met with Meir nearly six weeks before hostilities broke out.  https://t.co/c5k0UvApj7

7. In September 2021, Biden said his first job offer was from the Boise Cascade lumber yard in Idaho.  However, Boise Cascade spokeswoman Lisa Tschampl told the Post, “We have no record of President Biden’s application or of him having worked for the company.”  https://t.co/xLYMpUa1z9

8. In January 2022, Biden said the “first time I got arrested” was at a civil rights protest. Washington Post fact-checker Glenn Kessler pointed out that Biden has made similar claims in the past. Kessler gave Biden’s remarks, which the journalist’s research could not substantiate, even after reaching out to the White House, four Pinocchios, the Post’s worst rating.  There is no evidence Biden has ever been arrested and he was not a civil rights activist. https://t.co/NqZoxg7DVj

9. In June 2021, Biden repeated a claim he’s made multiple times of having a conversation with an Amtrak conductor Angelo Negri about traveling over one million miles on Air Force 2 as vice president. “Biden’s account simply does not add up. Biden did not reach the million-miles-flown mark as vice president until September 2015, according to his own past comments. But Negri retired from Amtrak in 1993 and died in May 2014,” CNN reported.  https://t.co/92RvdxUtFc

10. In June 2022, while speaking at the Naval Academy’s graduation, Biden said he was appointed to the school in 1965.  The New York Post reported that there is no record of Biden being nominated to the academy, and he graduated from the University of Delaware in 1965.  Further, no record could be located of Biden being appointed to the school between 1960 and ’65. .https://t.co/2kVar3COyI

11. In July 2022, Biden said he had cancer due to emissions from oil refineries.  The only cancer the White House said Biden had is skin cancer, which is caused by the sun, not fossil-fuel emissions. https://t.co/cKFXXoZNCp 

12. In February 2020, while campaigning for president, Biden said that he “became a professor” after leaving office in 2017.  Biden was in fact named the “Benjamin Franklin Presidential Practice Professor” with the University of Pennsylvania in 2017, “but neither the school nor Biden expected him to teach any classes, according to comments at the time,” the Daily Caller reported.  Further, he never taught a class. His work was based in Washington, D.C., at the Penn Biden Center, where those classified documents recently showed up.  https://t.co/SJyp6rA5nh

13. In May 2021, Biden said that his “great-grandpop” was a coal miner. There is at least some truth in this claim.  “Biden’s great-grandfather, Edward Blewitt, went to college and became a civil and mining engineer, and eventually a state senator,” The Washington Post reported.  Biden probably called him a coal miner, rather than an engineer, because it made him sound more working class. https://t.co/qbKkOW64V5

14. In December, Biden claimed after he was elected vice president in 2008, he awarded his uncle Frank Biden, the Purple Heart for his service during the Battle of the Bulge in World War II.  The president said he did so at the request of his father, Joe Biden Sr.  Biden even recalled how he and Joe Sr. went over to Frank’s house to deliver the award to him, but his uncle refused it, saying those who died deserved it.  But the New York Post pointed out that Frank Biden died in 1999 and Joe Sr. in 2002, making the account impossible to be true. Further, there is no military record of Frank ever having been awarded the Purple Heart, which would be required for Biden to have one to try to give him.  https://t.co/QmZWvxx3c6 

15. In July 2021 while hosting the World Series champion Los Angeles Dodgers, Biden told the players that, in his second congressional baseball game in 1974, he hit a baseball 368 feet off the center field wall.  However, he actually went 0-2 at bat during that game, according to a newspaper account from the time.  pic.twitter.com/dXbPJJrfEP

16. In October, while stumping for now-Sen. John Fetterman in Pittsburgh, Biden said his grandfather, Ambrose Finnegan, was an all-American football player at Santa Clara University in California.  Finnegan did attend the school, according to Newsweek, but there is no record of him being an All-American football player. The news outlet noted he may have been a second or third-team All-American, for which records were not kept at that time.  Or he may have received some other special local recognition that people (or just the Biden family) equated with being an All-American. pic.twitter.com/sQbpTMT3se

17. Last year, Biden took his football tales a step further and said in January 2022 that he “could have been an All-American” football player.  He seemed to be joking, saying if Fetterman had been blocking for him, he could have been an “All-American.”  But it’s doubtful. The president played just one semester on the freshman football team for the University of Delaware. He did not letter because he left the team before the season was over due to low grades, NBC News reported.  So it would have taken a lot more than Fetterman as a teammate for Biden to become an All-American.  pic.twitter.com/rgBhoddAwp

18. In December 2021, while promoting an infrastructure bill, Biden said he thought he could have made it to pro football. He even asked a friend of his who played in the NFL if he could help him get a walk-on tryout.  Maybe this is more delusional than a lie, but again, Biden barely played college football. pic.twitter.com/YgejcjFFcQ


19. In February 2021, Biden told State Department employees that he got “shot at” while he was overseas.  The New York Post reported that the president made a similar claim during a CNN Democratic presidential debate in 2007, recalling it occurred in Baghdad’s Green Zone in Iraq.  Biden later revised his claim saying, “I was near where a shot landed.”  It never happened.  https://t.co/kX424rAwhE

20. In February 2022, Biden told attendees of the National Association of Counties conference that when he was county council member, he received a call from a woman demanding he remove a dead dog from her lawn, Fox News reported.  He said instead of doing that, he put it on her doorstep.  However, Biden had reportedly previously told the story, saying he drove to her home and removed the animal. pic.twitter.com/2MiWKOWQwU

21. In October 2021, Biden said he was “involved in the civil rights movement.”  When this issue came up when he was running for president in 1987, he was forced to backtrack, The Intercept reported.  At a news conference in September of that year, Biden said, “I was not an activist.”  “I was involved, but I was not out marching. I was not down in Selma, I was not anywhere else,” he added.   Rather Biden said he was aware and concerned about civil rights.  pic.twitter.com/ijty46nY83

If those 21 tall tales are not enough, Washington Post fact checker Glenn Kessler and his team put together a list in 2021 of the “false and misleading claims” Biden made just in his first 100 days in office.

They include his claim that former President Donald Trump had not ordered enough COVID-19 vaccines and had no plan to distribute them.  Biden also falsely asserted that the vast number of illegal immigrants in the U.S. are those who have overstayed their visas.

The president also said there was a broad consensus of economists that his tax and spending plans would be good for the economy, but the Post pointed out some prominent economists warned the proposals would be inflationary.  Evidently Biden has such a penchant for telling falsehoods, coming up with over 21 of them was not too hard.  If someone is going to lie about little things, it makes the likelihood of lying about larger things all too likely… like being in business with Hunter and his international pay-off schemes.

All of this leads to the question of why hasn’t our “fourth branch” of government been doing its job and investigating/ reporting on Biden instead of simply fabricating false evidence on the Republicans all along?  Don’t get me wrong; we need to hold all parties accountable, but up to this point, it has typically only been Republicans that have been held accountable by the DIM allies of the left.  The media has always ignored or excused Biden’s lies in the past simply by chuckling and saying that that is just ol’ Joe with another gaffe.  Yeah, well someone who seems to have an intrinsic ability to lie repeatedly, even when the lie has been proven to be exactly that, perhaps the media and the left, (but then I repeat myself) are simply reaping the rancid fruits of the rotten seeds they have sown.

Outstanding!!

Thanks JTF. It is always interesting when you confront the left with facts. Either you receive nasty epithets about being sexist, racist, authoritarian etc. or you hear absolutely nothing. It is hard to argue with just the facts! :)

You never wrote an article like that about Trump lies, but we know where your bias lies.

Darrell Michaels said...

Jerry, there is no need for me to document Trump's lies. That is done at any leftist blog on the internet. Mr. Dubya will gladly list Trump's lies and issues, even if some/most of those are fabricated and simply propaganda, sir.

I fully acknowledge that Trump is also a liar and a blow-hard who's main purpose is simply to reward his own over-inflated ego.

I also know that we would not have the inflation, crime, and energy cost spikes if he were still president. We would not be in a far more dangerous position with foreign policy issues either. We would not have abandoned allies in Afghanistan, forsaken Israel, and stroked Iran's mullahs if Trump were still president. Biden's foolishness cost American lives and treasure.

Trump is gone, hopefully for good, but I still have to acknowledge that he did a lot of good for the country. I wish I could say the same for Biden, but I simply cannot think of any good things he has done. His promises of uniting the country and being transparent to the public are just two more lies we can add to his long list of falsehoods, my friend.
