White House shamed into deleting Social Security boast after Twitter fact-check
2022-11-03
[NYPost] The Biden administration (aka the Wilmington comorra)
...the pack of self-imagined masterminds of strategy and intrigue at the service of the Biden Crime Family and a grateful nation...
was forced to delete a Twitter post taking credit for a boost in retirees’ Social Security checks Wednesday after social media users pointed out the increase was tied to decades-high inflation.​

"Seniors are getting the biggest increase in their Social Security checks in 10 years through President Joe Biden
...... 46th president of the U.S. The nincompoop who dumped Afghanistan. The copier doesdn't exist that could reelect him.......
’s leadership," read the tweet from the official White House account Tuesday afternoon.

Twitter, which ​was purchased last week by billionaire Elon Musk, appended a note to the claim that said: "R​​eaders added context they thought people might want to know​."

​​"Seniors will receive a large Social Security benefit increase due to the annual cost of living adjustment, which is based on the inflation rate," the note said, linking to the Social Security Administration’s website for an explanation on the Nixon-era legislation behind the increase — known as COLA.

#6  Yeah and that COLA will not cover the increased cost to fill my car's gas tank.

#5  Well it wasn't entirely wrong. Social Security receipiants are getting the increase because of Joe Biden's policies which caused the increase in inflation. Let's go Biden!

#4  ...well, I guess the GOP needs to point out that the Donks want to eat veal babies.
