PolitiFact’s aggressive defense of Biden and Harris popped up again on Friday. They tagged it as “False” for a Tik-Tok video that “Says Joe Biden and Kamala Harris distrusted COVID-19 vaccines.”
The quotes in the video are all accurate, but they caused Facebook to flag the video as “Missing Context.” As in – the editing is too negative for their liking. Once again, they’re not “fact checking” – they’re context checking.
The short summary in Tom Kertscher's article proclaimed “Video clips appear to show Joe Biden and Kamala Harris raising doubts about COVID-19 vaccines, but they were raising concerns about the rollout by then-President Donald Trump, not the vaccines themselves.” [Emphasis mine.]
THAT is not accurate. If you suggest someone shouldn’t trust the vaccine until something happens – in this case, until the Democrats are elected – you’re sowing distrust in the vaccines.
They bolded the part the "False" video includes. Many remember Kamala Harris in the vice-presidential debate:

What a joke.
“missing context”
This after YEARS of Democrat politicians and journalists falsely claiming that there were “good nazis/white supremacists” at the Charlottesville protest.
The context was “but ‘Trump’!”
They stated if Trump said to take it they wouldn’t——(Even though the science said to take it).
More leftists lying—what a surprise.
Lying media, propaganda arm of the Democratic Party.
That said, both sides flipped on the vaccine.
Most conservatives would not be so distrusting of the vaccine were Trump still president.
Then why isn’t the WH mandating all staffers get vaxxed?
Psaki says that’s the case.
So why does everyone else have to get a CoupFlu shot, but not WH employees...?
“Most conservatives would not be so distrusting of the vaccine were Trump still president.”
If Trump were still President, the threat of mandatory inoculations wouldn’t be hanging over us. Not on a national level, at least. That seems to be the real issue. You don’t see heated debates about whether to take the annual flu vaccine, because people aren’t pressured to take it, or not to.
Biden and Harris said that they distrusted Trump’s word on vaccines.
Nope!
Video evidence only counts if it's from A White Cops videocam.
Or the joke about how maybe the Russians could find Hillary’s missing 30,0000 emails...
PROOF he collaborated!
Even when we know that the FBI had Hillary’s 60,000 deleted emails and Hunter Biden’s laptop we got crickets...
Absolute hogwash. Biden, Pelosi, Cuomo, Newsom, and everyone else on the left was talking about how the Trump vaccines couldn’t be trusted because President Trump forced the FDA to rush through untested and dangerous blah blah blah. The same sort of nonsense parroted by anti-vaxxers now. Their tune changed suddenly when they believed they had the election won.
Go back to news stories all through October and early November 2020 and it was nonstop anti-vax garbage spouted by Democrats from coast to coast. In fact, they didn’t start fully supporting the vaccines until Biden got into office and started trying to claim credit for the Trump vaccines. But people aren’t quite that stupid. People know these are Trump’s triumphs. Just that no one on the left will ever admit it.
The "context missing" warning is another joke. The true context was simply Joe Biden and Kamala Harris taking cheap shots at Operation Warp Speed without any regards for public safety.
It's especially galling to hear Kamala blithering about Anthony Fauci. We now know that he initially showed no interest in the project and estimated it would take 3-5 years to develop vaccines.
A distinction without a difference. What was he trying to "roll out" - uh, the vaccines.
Don’t believe your lying eyes.. or ears.
“You gonna volunteer?” Joe LIEden
