BREAKING: Joe Biden’s wild economic claims during his State of the Union address were fact-checked six times by The New York Times.

“15 million new jobs in just three years — a record,” Biden claimed. • The Times ruled the claim needed context “My policies have attracted $650 billion in private sector investment, in clean energy, advanced manufacturing, creating tens of thousands of jobs here in America!” • The Times ruled Biden’s statement lacked context and Biden calculated $650

“We’ve already cut the federal deficit over a trillion dollars.” •The Times ruled Biden’s claim needed context: Under Mr. Biden’s watch, the federal deficit dropped to $1.4 trillion in fiscal year 2022 from $3.1 trillion in fiscal year 2021 — but much of that reduction was attributed to the expiration of coronavirus relief spending. The deficit then rose in 2023, to about $1.7 trillion. The deficit remains higher than it was before the coronavirus pandemic.
