Biden could wind up with the "Bottomless Pinocchio" moniker after the Washington Post noted he's repeated a trio of "false or misleading claims," including a whopper about a new Georgia voting law.

Post fact-checker Glenn Kessler wrote Biden is a repeat offender because he continues to make three already-debunked claims "that appear impervious to fact-checking," repeating the inaccurate statements after they were proven false. Kessler on Friday penned an updated fact check headlined, "President Biden, recidivist."

BIDEN EARNS ‘FOUR PINOCCHIOS’ FROM WASHINGTON POST FOR FALSE CLAIM ABOUT GEORGIA VOTING LAW

 

The label is the most severe scolding handed out by the Post until the whopper is repeated 20 or more times, which is then considered a "Bottomless Pinocchio."

"The bar for the Bottomless Pinocchio is high: Claims must have received Three or Four Pinocchios from The Fact Checker, and they must have been repeated at least 20 times," Kessler explained. "Twenty is a sufficiently robust number that there can be no question the politician is aware that his or her facts are wrong."
