Fox News anchor in spat with Biden campaign over ‘blatant lie’ smear, and he has receipts
June 5, 2024 | Chris Donaldson
The Biden-Harris campaign is so sure that it won’t be called out on its lies by the corrupt media that it baselessly smeared Fox News anchor John Roberts for telling the truth and he’s pushing back.
Roberts told viewers that it was former President Donald J. Trump who was responsible for the $35 cap on insulin co-pays, something that Joe Biden has taken credit for, with the Biden-Harris rapid response social media account accusing Roberts of being a liar.
“Fox host tries to claim Trump, not President Biden, capped insulin at $35/month. FACT CHECK: This is a blatant lie. Trump did not cap insulin costs, President Biden did for seniors through the Inflation Reduction Act. Trump’s Project 2025 wants to repeal it, which would raise insulin costs for over a million Americans,” the Biden-Harris HQ stated in a post to X.
The “America Reports” anchor responded to the campaign’s phony “fact check” and he brought the receipts.
“Yesterday, coming out of a segment in which the $35 insulin co-pay under the Inflation Reduction Act was mentioned, I remarked that I recalled back in May of 2020 the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services had issued a press release that stated President Trump had a plan to lower insulin co-plays to $35. The Biden campaign’s rapid response issued a response on X saying the following,” Roberts said on Tuesday, reading the Biden-Harris HQ’s hit job.
“But there are receipts to dispute the Biden campaign’s claim about what I said,” Roberts said, citing a May 2020 CMS press release.
