@NickMiroff Yeah, I should be clear - it's true as of the most recent studies, but those studies don't go up to the present — PolitiTweet.org

@fortron How is this an excuse? I'm noting the pattern of the kinds of things he messes up — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
This was also an ad-lib not in Biden's prepared text. This is his pattern -- some issues when he starts ad-libbing number stuff. — PolitiTweet.org

Basically -- undocumented population was overwhelmingly border-crossers for a long time. That has changed, with visa-overstayers making up the majority of the newly undocumented for a bunch of years. But because of the earlier arrivers, border-crossers are still a majority. — PolitiTweet.org

Biden was wrong, per experts, that the "vast majority" of 11M undocumented immigrants in US are visa-overstayers. A majority of *newly* undocumented people overstayed visas, but experts say majority of *overall* 11M is still made up of people who illegally crossed the border. — PolitiTweet.org

This is the think tank report from which Biden got the assertion that 55 big companies paid zero in federal income tax. https://t.co/py3SYLKEog — PolitiTweet.org

@lennonfan4 Nope. He said 17K with Xi. — PolitiTweet.org

Biden's ad-libbed "17,000 miles" claim is the first flat false claim I've heard so far (though we're still researching, of course). Here's my previous fact check on it https://t.co/vQJgUdv0UM, citing the Post's original https://t.co/jDCj7M48u0. https://t.co/TB4dnIAmNd — PolitiTweet.org

Biden's "I traveled over 17,000 miles with" Xi Jinping claim is extremely inaccurate, as WaPo has shown. He's spent a lot of time with Xi, but that "miles" number is very false. That was an ad-lib; Biden's text has been very factual, but he just started talkin' for a second. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
@daveweigel They dropped the bad talking point - even Biden's smoother but still misleading version - right after the fact checks. It'd been central to their rollout, then completely gone — PolitiTweet.org

These figures are from Georgetown University estimates. (Obviously can't definitively fact check forward-looking estimates.) https://t.co/bfiCrAhIz7 https://t.co/vtjKEp190I — PolitiTweet.org

And every time I tweet about one of these kinds of social media things, some people are like “come onnn it’s a joke,” but tons of people see them and believe them, so I’m gonna keep being the non-fun guy — PolitiTweet.org

This is a photoshopped image on the left; the real one is on the right. (This tweeter sometimes does images that some people retweet because they find them funny and others retweet because they think they’re real.) https://t.co/4kZJ7MvYqp — PolitiTweet.org

For people in this thread -- the NY Post did not respond to requests for a response to Italiano's accusation that she was "ordered" to write the story. — PolitiTweet.org

@kimmieg56 That's what I thought, yep. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
@pollyannathibo1 Correct and correct - the sentence was bad, “copies” was wrong. I’m just saying I interpreted the bad sentence one way, but on @farhip’s prompting, I realize there’s another interpretation I should’ve noted exists. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
@AZinCLE Very possibly. but it’s my job to decipher — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Paul makes sense here - the Post’s grammar was ambiguous, but reading the sentence again, the “illegally” more likely refers to the border-crossing than the shelter giving out the books. So: either my mistake or my shoulda-been-more-careful. — PolitiTweet.org

Well, not quite. The syntax is confusing. The cover caption reads, “A...shelter for unaccompanied kids who crossed… https://t.co/bX37dbXjbt

Updated: NY Post reporter who wrote the false Harris-book story says she was “ordered” to do so and has now resigned; the Post hasn’t yet sent me a response to her claims: https://t.co/UirnBnFvVC — PolitiTweet.org

This is, of course, her own account of what happened. I’ll reach out to the Post and let you know how they respond. — PolitiTweet.org

The NY Post runs a fictional cover story, creates GOP outrage, gets debunked by the Washington Post, takes story offline for hours, puts story back online with its central allegation removed but no official correction. Story on today in imaginary news: https://t.co/UirnBnFvVC — PolitiTweet.org

The revised story notes that the one copy of the book was donated by a community member, and deletes the claim that copies were put in "welcome kits," but still says the presence of a donated copy is "just the latest open-arms gesture by the Biden administration." — PolitiTweet.org

The nonsense NYPost story has now been republished, with its headline changed to "Kamala isn’t at the southern border -- but at least one migrant kid got Veep’s book," from the previous "...but migrant kids are getting Veep’s book." (Bad bad.) — PolitiTweet.org

When I linked to the revised version of the op-ed, I *explicitly noted I was linking to the revised version*. OK I promise I'm done thank you. https://t.co/uHlhVC2Bq2 — PolitiTweet.org
