As 2024 comes to close, it’s a good time to consider some of the lies from outgoing President Biden and his Democratic support team.  

While Biden pushes more than his share of inconsequential lies, some of them coming from him and his administration have been so blatant and obviously false that they deserve special attention. 

Biden is just fine, thank you.” Although the cover-up of Biden’s decline went on for at least four years, it got particularly aggressive in 2024. It had to if Democrats were going to counter the growing chatter that Biden’s physical and mental acuity were deteriorating quickly. The June presidential debate made denialism impossible. 

“The exploding federal debt is not a problem.” Only last June, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen reassured the public that the federal debt ($34.7 trillion at the time) was not a major concern.  “If the debt is stabilized relative to the size of the economy, we’re in a reasonable place.”  

But the debt was not stabilized, because her boss, Biden, has continued pushing taxpayer dollars out the door: for student loan forgiveness, green energy projects and many others. 

“I will not pardon him.” That was Biden’s June 13 response to a direct question as to whether he would issue a presidential pardon for his son Hunter. Both Joe and White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre repeated the assertion several times. And many Democrats publicly claimed they believed it — but hardly anyone else did.  

Many other issues can go under this category.   Just a thought.
