EXCLUSIVE: Critics Rip PolitiFact for Insisting Biden Anti-Oil Activism Didn’t Cause Gas Price Spike
NewsBusters ^ | 9/20/2022 | Joseph Vazquez

PolitiFact had the audacity to argue like President Joe Biden’s eco-extremist policies didn't really have anything to do with America’s energy inflation crisis, continuing to prove why its worthless so-called “fact-checks” belong in the trash bin.

The Facebook fact-checker seethed at Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) for daring to tweet in August: “Democrats' radical green energy policies caused record gas prices. They want to fundamentally transform our economy." PolitiFact rebuked Johnson for his wrongthink and falsely stated: “Green energy policies didn’t cause record prices at gasoline pumps” and suggested Johnson said this, of course, simply because he was “locked in a tight re-election battle.”

JunkScience.com founder Steve Milloy repudiated the so-called fact-checker in exclusive comments to MRC Business: “The notion that anyone but Biden is responsible for high gas prices has no basis in fact.” Climate Depot founder and "The Great Reset: Global Elites and the Permanent Lockdown" author Marc Morano gave a blunt assessment of PolitiFact’s gaslighting: “It's time to rename these 'Fact Checks' for what they truly are, agenda-driven 'opinion checks' and nothing more.’”

Liberals are incapable of being objective or telling the truth. They are the pathetic polar opposite of the ‘intellectuals’ they think they are.

Never tell the truth if a lie will serve.

Lots of “Polita”, no real “fact”.

Communists, stop the Charmin metaphors, they are always trying to reclaim and rewrite history. Their trail of death, destruction, and tears needs constant rewriting (deception). The reason - they take their inspiration from Licifer. Do not soft peddle the enemy, they mean to destroy you.

Of course, Biden and the Democrats jihad against fossil fuels drove up the price of gas which drove up the cost of transporting goods which drove up the price of goods. 8% inflation is owned by the Democrats.

In their defense, everyone knows that Politifact is just another DNC front org. It's just that those who deny it also know they're liars, they just support their lying.

Let make is simple for Biden.

1. Little girls for sniffing of hair, cost x dollars.
2. We have two hair sniffers and 2 sets of hair to sniff at x dollars. Note: The hair sniffers have unlimited funds. The going rate is x dollars.
3. Due to a great economy we now have four hair sniffers and the same number of sets of hair to sniff. Demand has doubled and supply is still the same. Voila! as Milton Friedman would have said, the price has doubled, it is 2x.

Joe, it works the same way with oil. You have limited the production and increased demand and the price doubled.

I do not need a pair of turbines to make mine fly. But, that Pawnee towplane is rather essential. LOL. Have a great day Janey.
