The real scandal is that any journalist ever believed Joe Biden in the first place
Indeed, if there were ever a president to rival Donald Trump in terms of sheer dishonesty, it is Biden, a man with a long history of brazen falsehoods and dishonest behavior.
Biden famously claimed that he had been arrested in South Africa after demanding a meeting with the then-imprisoned Nelson Mandela. Biden was never arrested in South Africa.
The former president said he had met with the leaders of the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh after an antisemitic terrorist attack in October 2018 left 11 worshipers dead. Biden did not meet with the synagogue leaders.
Biden once asserted, "Immediately, the moment [the Iraq War] started, I came out against the war at that moment." Biden did not do that.
Biden has said on several occasions that he marched with civil rights protesters. He did not.
He has said on several occasions that he was arrested with civil rights protesters. He was not.
Biden said the NAACP supported each of his campaigns for office. It did not.
Biden said he was appointed to the Naval Academy in 1965 by the late U.S. Sen. J. Caleb Boggs (R-Del.), but the late senator's archives show nothing of the sort.
Biden claimed he was once in a helicopter that was "forced down" into "the superhighway of terror" between Afghanistan and Pakistan. He was not.
He said he was "shot at" during trips to the Green Zone in Iraq. This did not happen. (He later clarified: "I was near where a shot landed").
Biden bragged that he had led the charge against the war criminal Slobodan Milosevic. He had not. Biden said he had been the first in his family to go to university. He was not.
Biden has always been a liar

With 20 lies on Day 1, will Trump break first-term record of 30,573 untruths? (January 2025)
www.indiatoday.in
... Donald Trump delivered two speeches after his inauguration on Monday and several media outlets fact-checked him. CNN put the number of untruths at 20. Trump averaged 21 lies a day in his first term, according to The Washington Post. This is why Trump's Day 1 of his second term could herald a return to a fact-check era. ...
Of course, there seems to linger the question why Mr Bezos has terminated the Washington Post's fact-checking efforts?
