BREAKING NEWS – New York City, New York – MSNBC’s “All In” host Chris Hayes was widely rebuked after he downplayed President Biden’s decades-long history of falsehoods while discussing GOP Rep.-elect George Santos’s resume debacle.
Santos, the New York representative-elect, admitted to lying during his campaign about his work experience and education, prompting a strong reaction from Democrat politicians and media pundits who immediately deemed him unfit to serve in Congress.
“I think there’s a line between ‘normal’ politician bs-ing and conman serial lying, and he’s got infractions on either side of that line,” Hayes said of Santos. “I mean it would have been a pretty big deal if it turned out Joe Biden didn’t actually have a law degree!”
“Sure,” responded Washington Examiner columnist T. Becket Adams. “Biden lied about being the first in his family to go to college, lied about his scholarship, lied about finishing in the top half of his class, lied about having 3 undergrad degrees, and lied about being a professor, but, by God, the law degree is real!”
“I don’t have a problem when a democrat lies,” explained Hayes in response to Adams’ rebuttal. “Because when a democrat lies, it’s always for the greater good, but when republicans lie, their reasons are always selfish and sinister, and every objective liberal person knows it.”
