Joe Biden has always had an unfriendly relationship with the truth, but a cozy one with the liberal media so his lies never get much publicity in the mainstream media. This is another one of those cases. The illegitimate president tried to claim that there was no COVID-19 vaccine before he took office, despite he fact that President Trump had developed the vaccine in record time and 50 million people, including Joe, were vaccinated before he took office. Naturally, the fake news industry explains that this is not a lie because Joe stutters.
Last night Biden did a town hall with CNN in which he was asked exactly zero tough questions and he still managed to f*ck it up:
Biden says there was no vaccine when he came into office.
That is abjectly FALSE. President Trump brought about the fastest vaccine for a novel pathogen in history.

“It’s one thing to have the vaccine, which we didn’t have when came into office, but a vaccinator. How do you get the vaccine into someone’s arm?” claimed Biden.
That’s actually two lies: Biden says prior to him taking office not only didn’t the COVID-19 vaccine exist but also there was no one to administer the non-existent vaccine.
Washington Post’s head fact-checker, Glenn Kessler, has already announced that his paper would not be fact-checking Biden because he doesn’t lie about anything. That courtesy is being extended to actually excusing Biden’s lies. Check this spin out:
It was a verbal stumble, a typical Biden gaffe, as he had already mentioned 50 million doses being available when he took office. Ex Trump officials should especially cool the outrage meter, as it just looks silly. https://t.co/HFjH01lXgH

Yeah, it’s totally everyone calling out Biden’s lie who look silly, not the guy excusing it.
Somehow this got worse because one Twitter user asked Kessler how he determines what is a gaffe and what is a lie:
honest question: how do you determine what’s a verbal stumble and what’s not?

It depends in part on whether he spoke correctly about vaccine availability elsewhere in the interview. People screw up on live television. Biden with his stutter especially does so.

So stuttering makes people lie? That’s what he’s going with? Can we get a fact-check on that claim, please?
I looked it up and lying is not associated with stuttering in any way. Kessler should apologize to all who suffer from stuttering as well as the American people for trying to cover up Biden’s blatant lie.
Since the liberal media will not fact-check Biden’s claim that there was no COVID-19 vaccine before he took office, I guess I’m going to have to do it. No, let’s let Biden himself handle this fact-check:
Today, I received the COVID-19 vaccine.
To the scientists and researchers who worked tirelessly to make this possible — thank you. We owe you an awful lot.
And to the American people — know there is nothing to worry about. When the vaccine is available, I urge you to take it. pic.twitter.com/QBtB620i2V

As you can see, from Biden’s own account, he received the COVID-19 vaccine on December 21, a full month before he took office. Not only did the vaccine exist before he took office, but there was also a “vaccinator” because clearly someone is putting it in his arm.
Def-Con News rates Biden’s claim: Completely false.
We also rate the liberal media’s attempt to dismiss this lie: Shameful and pathetic.
