Washington Post ‘Fact-Checker’ Gets Owned For Defending Biden’s Vaccine Whopper

The Washington Post’s chief fact-checker Glenn Kessler tried to run interference for Joe Biden after the president falsely claimed during a CNN town hall Tuesday evening that the United States did not have a COVID-19 vaccine when he transitioned into the White House in late January, but it backfired.

Shortly after Biden’s blatantly false assertion made its rounds on the internet, Kessler began his defense of the new president, choosing to explain “how to tell whether a politician might be telling a deliberate lie or just had a verbal stumble.”

Instead of issuing a fact check of his statement, Kessler questioned whether Biden actually meant what he said, justifying his words as merely a gaffe.
