Shop NowI think Joe Biden would be best served to stay off Twitter.
It seems like he is getting more posts flagged than not these days.
The latest being a tweet that was sent out calling out Republicans for wanting to cut Medicare and social security.
Already Debunked
Biden continues to press this issue, and he pressed it again during his SOTU address.
That resulted in catcalls of “liar” from the GOP side of the gallery.
Biden had also posted that claim on Twitter, and it was flagged as misleading.
The post stated, “House Republicans are threatening to cut Social Security and Medicare, putting the dignity of millions of Americans who rely on these programs at risk.
“I won’t stand for that.
“We ought to strengthen these programs – not gut them.”
In reality, Republicans have wanted to dig into these programs and revisit how they are funded, not end them.
Regardless, fact-check posts were added to the tweet, and it was flagged, then removed by the White House, which I am not even sure is legal.
White House spokesman Andrew Bates tried to justify the post, stating, “For years, congressional Republicans have advocated for slashing earned benefits using Washington code words like ‘strengthen,’ when their policies would privatize Medicare and Social Security, raise the retirement age, or cut benefits.
“House Republicans refuse to raise revenue from the wealthy, but insist they will ‘strengthen’ earned benefits programs.”
Yeah, but why did the White House remove the tweet because that is what he was asked about.
