That just makes Glenn Kesler a liar. No more, no less.

Like the man said: “we didn’t have “fact checkers” until the truth started getting out.”

[BenLurkin]

Assumes will be like Obama?

WaPo forgot about Benghazi already?

"generally the Trump White House almost never responded to our inquiries because, of course, a lot of what the president said could not be defended or explained..."

No, they never responded to you because reasonable people know it's unproductive to talk to scum.

As Alice said, it's getting ‘curiouser and curiouser.

“Curiouser and curiouser!” Cried Alice (she was so much surprised, that for the moment she quite forgot how to speak good English).” ―

[The MAGA-Deplorian]

Facts for thee but not for he? Who buys this rag? I wouldn’t train a puppy on it!

[LegendHasIt]

It has become quite obvious that these days, any person or group who calls themselves "Fact Checkers" are not interested in presenting the truth, but are "checking" the facts: as in the second definition of verb (used with object):

2: to restrain; hold in restraint or control.

Turn over your phone and email records, Mr. Fact-checker. We'll see just how often you contacted the White House for your fact-checking process.

“I assume the Biden presidency will be a lot like the Obama presidency, and that they will be responsive, and will be able to quickly back up what they’re saying”

Thats amusing.

When the obama administration denied singling out and harassing conservatives through the IRS, were they able to back up their denials?

DEMOCRACY DIES IN DARKNESS!

Despotism (Encyclopedia Britannica film, circa 1946)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TaWSqboZr1w
“A community is low on a ‘Respect’ scale if common courtesy is withheld from large groups of people on account of their political attitudes.”

“...in a downright despotism opposition is dangerous whether the despotism is official or whether it is unofficial...”

“A community rates low on the ‘Information’ scale when the press, radio, and other channels of communication are controlled by only a few people and when citizens have to accept what they are told.”

“See how a community trains its teachers”
“...these students are being taught to accept uncritically whatever they are told. Questions are not encouraged.”

“And if books and newspapers and the radio [and facebook and youtube and...] are officially controlled the people will read and accept exactly what the few in control want them to. Government censorship is one form of control. The newspaper that breaks the government censorship rule can be suspended. It is also possible for newspapers and other lines of communication to be controlled by private interests...”

Democracy (Encyclopedia Britannica film, circa 1946)

“The newspapers of a real democracy meet these tests...”

Newspaper checks.
1. Balance of coverage
2. Disclosure of source
3. Competence of staff

If they disagreed with a Trump “Lie”.
Since Joe and the MSM are of the same mind, nothing he will say will be considered a lie, just misstatements.

[GOPJ]

Glenn Kessler I’m shocked. Shocked I tell you... This is totally out of the blue... /s

[ballplayer]

And the false statements that Biden makes everyday will simply not be covered
