Fact-checking fact-checkers

The Democrat "fact check" website calling itself PolitiFact is so fervently dedicated to defending President Biden that it's repeating its lame fact checks of previous Kentucky Derby jokes. On Monday, staff writer Monique Curet threw a "Pants on Fire" rating at a Facebook user named Eddie Foley -- with about 1,300 friends at this juncture -- for repeating a joke about Biden being insulted as a…

Andrew Stiles at the Washington Free Beacon proclaimed PolitiFact was "PANTS ON FIRE" in a Monday fundraising email sent by their audience director, Josie Hollingsworth. "Help us hold politicians accountable," she begged. Stiles turned that around in fact-check style, and evaluated a month of the website's contents.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk correctly slammed NBC News for trying to bury the Hunter Biden laptop scandal. Phony fact-checker PolitiFact tapped into all levels of Pravda to pretend that wasn’t true.

How exquisitely sensitive can PolitiFact be? On Thursday, "fact checker" Samantha Putterman slammed the Republican National Committee as "False" for leaving out one word of a Biden quote about the children belonging to teachers as "missing context." 

PolitiFact acts like its role is not to check facts, but to suppress embarrassing videos of Biden and Harris. Last month, they cried False about an embarrassing Harris performance at a press conference in Europe. Now, they've claimed that when Biden ended a speech and attempted to shake hands with a non-existent person, he was pointing! Doesn't everyone point with all five fingers? 

The hypocrisy of Facebook’s fact-checking partners knows no bounds. In an act of discrimination against the Media Research Center, a Meta platform fact-checking partner threw a fit after MRC’s video division, MRCTV, dared to write about a video that showed President Joe Biden getting smacked with a white or yellow substance, depending on the photo or video.

The Associated Press couldn’t bring itself to outright admit that President Joe Biden falsely promised to Americans that they would save big on transitioning to green energy. Instead, AP just said he “misspoke” and “vastly overpromised.”

The "Transgender Day of Visibility" became a day of completely one-sided promotional news coverage, complete with clips of President Biden's celebration speech. For conservative critics, it was a day of invisibility. The Left thinks identity trumps democracy and debate.

So-called fact-checkers should be eating crow following authentication of the emails from Hunter Biden’s notorious laptop by The New York Times. But a new analysis shows they’re being as brazen as ever by not updating old articles challenging the credibility of the story.

In the wake of the New York Times whispering in print on page A-20 that the Hunter Biden laptop emails were authentic, the "fact checking"/censorship complex is in need of scrutiny. Jacob Siegel of Tablet Magazine wrote up a tart piece titled "Invasion of the Fact-Checkers" that explored how private media power and the Democrats engage in shutting down narratives they don't like. 

The Democrat-backing “fact checkers” of PolitiFact jumped to the defense of Ketanji Brown Jackson by slapping conservative Sen. Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee with two negative verdicts on Tuesday. Four Democrats in the Senate haven't received a single PolitiFact "check."

Conservatives should pare down the several pending Big Tech reform bills into one or two pieces of legislation that can garner broad support if/when Republicans win control of Congress.

The badly disguised Democrats at PolitiFact haven’t fact-checked Vice President Kamala Harris on anything in eight months, but they demonstrated their Princess-and-the-Pea level of sensitivity of defensiveness by throwing a “False” flag at former Trump adviser Stephen Miller on Monday for mocking Harris on Fox’s Sunday Morning Futures. 

American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten said she’s happy that NewsGuard highly rates some news outlets that have been critical of her. And her group’s new partner was right by her side.
