President Joe Biden’s official Twitter account has received another embarrassing “fact check” after “context” was added to a tweet regarding a claim made about falling unemployment during his two years in office.
“The White House bragged about reduced unemployment claims since President Joe Biden took office, pointing out that they had declined from 18.8 million to 1.4 million over the course of his presidency,” The Western Journal noted on Monday. “The tweet made no reference to unemployment stemming from coronavirus, and the ‘Community Note’ that was inserted made that important distinction.”
The fact check noted: “Context: COVID rapidly drove significantly higher than normal claims beginning in 3/20, peaking at 33M in 7/20, and then gradually declining to today. For reference, the average from 2017-2019 was 1.8M.”
