The White House seems super excited over the increase in Social Security checks to seniors, so much so that they excitedly tweeted about it. Only there is one small problem: The reason for the increase is due to inflation. OOPs, Guess they missed that part, but TWITTER did not.

Is the White House getting a fact-check on Twitter and it is staying up? Maybe Musk taking over is going to be better after all!
Many users got in on the corrections as well.
When they accidentally admit outrageous inflation is because of “President Biden’s leadership.” https://t.co/5BCHPTnYIw

Nice to see you finally acknowledging that you drove up inflation https://t.co/e3KPMrdvSe

Uh….as we've documented before, this is a cost-of-living adjustment mandated by law. Checks have increased because inflation has increased. –> https://t.co/icknfxfQ4a https://t.co/tVHD0PXGqS

We are not sure, but Twitchy is not complaining about it as it does give us something to write about. 😉 We just hope whoever is making the official White House tweets keeps it up for the remainder of the Biden term in office as it is quite entertaining for us and our readers!
Thanks President Nixon

If we are going to Thank anyone we would thank Former President Nixon, but we here at Twitchy are all about equal opportunity and we want to go a step further and thank the White House Intern who is not thinking all of these tweets through before posting them. THANK YOU, RANDOM INTERN! Keep up the good work!
