Biden Says Details of False War Story Are ‘Irrelevant’

· Leave a Comment

In a NPR interview, Joe Biden again downplayed reports that he has repeatedly told a false war story on the campaign trail.

Said Biden: “That has nothing to do with judgment of whether or not you send troops to war, the judgment of whether you bring someone home, the judgment of whether you decide on a healthcare policy.”

He added: “The details are irrelevant in terms of decision-making.”

Same Election. Different Stories.

Election Day brings a flood of political news — and which sources you follow can shape the story you see.

That's why I appreciate what Ground News does. It shows how the same story is covered across the political spectrum — and highlights important stories that one side may be ignoring entirely.

And when the votes are counted and everyone starts debating what they mean, it's a useful way to get a broader view.
