White House is forced to DELETE fact-checked tweet claiming Biden has given American seniors the biggest boost in Social Security in 10 years

The White House was forced into an embarrassing Twitter climbdown on Wednesday, deleting a tweet that claimed President Joe Biden was responsible for seniors getting the biggest increase in Social Security checks in a decade.

As fact checkers were quick to point out, the increase is based on the rate of inflation and required by law.

At first, Twitter added a note to the original Monday afternoon tweet.

By Tuesday lunchtime the message had been deleted.
