They sure did miss the biggest one of all - the lie that Biden was mentally fit.

You remember the real lie of the year, right?
"Anyone who would think that they're at some advantage because of (Biden's) age thinks that at their peril, because he's very sharp," said Nancy Pelosi, before also saying that she had worked with the president for a very long time and that Biden was "on the ball."
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said much the same thing. ""I talk to President Biden regularly. Usually several times in a week." Schumer told reporters. "His mental acuity is great, it's fine, it's as good as it's been over the years."
Vice President Kamala Harris agreed, saying "Our president is in good shape, in good health, and is ready to lead in our second term."
And when journalists raised questions about Biden's fitness, they got attacked. When the Wall Street Journal reported that Biden was losing a step, Pelosi erupted on X: "Many of us spent time with @WSJ to share on the record our first-hand experiences with @POTUS, where we see his wisdom, experience, strength and strategic thinking," Pelosi wrote. "Instead, the Journal ignored testimony by Democrats, focused on attacks by Republicans and printed a hit piece."
And then Biden showed up at a prime time debate with Donald Trump and the lie that involved top White House aides, top Congressional Democrats, fundraisers, activists and political insiders from across the country came tumbling down.
And BTW - this columnist is a leftist.

Donald Trump and his acolytes spew such a blizzard of falsehoods that I never would have imagined the day when Democrats would beat him in the contest to tell the biggest whopper. It is unfortunate that every time Trump and his chaos Cabinet tell another one, they can point back to the biggest one of 2024, and say the Democrats are just as bad.
