It is just a side-effect of a lying congressional leadership combined with a lying national media.

Yeah, it does make one a little paranoid when we've seen thousands of lies out of the media over the last few years.

If you didn't, you should read Matt Taibbi's article about the media "Bomb Hole". It aligns perfectly with what I witnessed; and the tie-in with Orwell's "memory hole" pretty directly. That connection struck me as highly relevant, because it is key to how large numbers of people can be manipulated.

There is no doubt the national media deployed the concept, but it is hard to say whether they stumbled onto it by accident or simply didn't realize they were doing it.

But it is interesting that Glenn Kessler is not counting the lies of Biden and feels no need to "fact check" him.
