It’s another day that ends in “Y”<\/em> so Fox News is creating another in their perennial series of flagrant falsehoods aimed at maligning Democrats. It’s an awesome burden that they bear to keep coming up with new lies. And President Biden isn’t helping by failing to provide them with actual catastrophes that they can plausibly blame him for.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday morning the official “Message of the Day”<\/em> as chosen by Fox’s editorial board was that Biden confessed to intentionally raising gas prices and “praised”<\/em> the increases. That was the wholly contrived narrative introduced by Maria Bartiromo for her segment on the subject following a video clip of Biden commenting on energy matters. An exasperated Bartiromo exclaimed<\/a><\/strong> “Look, he just admitted it in that sound bite that this is all intentional. It\u2019s a plan.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Of course Biden never “admitted”<\/em> anything of the sort. Not even close. But that didn’t stop Fox News from disseminating this deceitful drivel across their media platforms. On the Fox News website they posted a story<\/a><\/strong> headlined “President Biden seems to praise high gas prices as ‘incredible transition’ Americans must go through.”<\/em> For the record, what Biden actually said was…<\/p>\n

“When it comes to the gas prices, we\u2019re going through an incredible transition that is taking place that, God willing, when it\u2019s over, we\u2019ll be stronger and the world will be stronger and less reliant on fossil fuels when this is over.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
