Even PolitiFact called out a couple of
LIEden's lies:
PolitiFact drops "mostly false" rating on Biden's guns claimhttps://hotair.com/ed-morrissey/2021/04/09/politifact-drops-mostly-false-rating-on-bidens-guns-claim-n382104And Joe Biden got off easy, as our colleague and pal Cam Edwards pointed out. But it says something that PolitiFact came closer to upholding standards with Joe Biden than they did with CBS News and 60 Minutes. The lesson here is that only the media can truly get away with creating false narratives:
...
As I wrote yesterday, almost everything Biden said in his speech introducing David Chipman as his nominee to run ATF was false, including the “AFT” that Biden called the agency — twice. PolitiFact focuses only on one of those falsehoods — the hoary “gun show loophole” that never existed in the first place. Democratic politicians have tried making the same claim for years if not decades, but it’s a flat-out lie:
...
Biden wants to change the law to force private sales and transfers to comply with background-check requirements. He doesn’t want to make that argument, however, because then it would highlight just how intrusive this kind of change would be. Under his proposal and those of his allies, even loaning a pistol to a friend would require both parties to use a federally licensed dealer to handle the transaction and paying them for the costs, at least. And then the two parties would have to repeat that process when the friend wanted to return the pistol — and let’s not forget the waiting periods that might apply in those cases, too.
