This "fact check" of Bernie Sanders' newsletter on Biden and Social Security is just flat out wrong in multiple ways, and I'll explain howhttps://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2020/jan/09/bernie-sanders/did-biden-laud-paul-ryan-proposal-cut-social-secur/ …
Politifact says Biden was being sarcastic and mocking Paul Ryan when he agreed that you have to cut Social Security to balance the budget. But that whisper thing Biden does is an old move: he does it when he's speaking forbidden, politically incorrect truths to the leftpic.twitter.com/wXww8a6Hgi
Go watch Biden speeches, you'll find that whisper move is consistent. Means he's attacking the left. But ok, say you don't believe me. It's wrong on a second count here. Politifact bolded the wrong words. The right ones are highlighted ("it still needs adjustment"):pic.twitter.com/EDan87fNHj
"Adjustment," in Washington, is a euphemism for "cuts." That's just a basic fact of congressional lingo that can't be disputed, but I don't blame Politifact for not being familiar with it. Now that they are, this should be corrected.
This part, though, there's no excuse for. They used as their neutral arbiter a guy from an organization founded for the purpose of cutting Social Security in order to cut the deficit.

Also this last part is just a minor correction, but it's not true that Sanders said this. It was in a newsletter that actually says the views are those of the author solely.pic.twitter.com/zbaHA4lFG2
The context is also important: Biden has been in favor of cutting — freezing, adjusting, whatever you want to call it — since the 1980s https://twitter.com/davidsirota/status/1215397207601381376?s=21 …https://twitter.com/davidsirota/status/1215397207601381376 …
Was biden sarcastically whispering on the floor of the senate when he spoke about all the times he tried to cut social programs, social security, and veterans benefits? If they're itching for context, it's right fucking there.
Was biden whispering when he led efforts to cut 4 trillion in spending in 2011 @PolitiFact? Was that sarcasm?http://inthesetimes.com/article/21856/joe-biden-cut-medicare-social-security-retirement-age …
This isn’t the first time Politifact has run interference for Biden. Sad that the “fact checkers” can’t be trusted.https://twitter.com/PaulChrist1an/status/1172553522082189312?s=20 …
This isn't the first time that "independent journalist" Ryan Grim has run interference for Bernie Sanders.
