At this point, we’re kinda sorta starting to genuinely wonder if PolitiFact is on the Democratic Party’s payroll. It seems like every time Republicans and conservatives draw attention to a Democrat saying something bad, PolitiFact, well, pounces and seizes on the Dems’ behalf.
There’s certainly some compelling evidence to support the theory the relationship between Democrats and PolitiFact is just a little bit too close for comfort. Here’s one more piece for the pile:

“False.” Well, yes, PolitiFact … we suppose that if you’re living in the Upside-Down, the claim is false.
It’s true but our truth-o-meter appears to be stuck on false 😉

And a complete joke.
Apparently @politifact rate something false and then write an article in which they admit it’s true.
If you are a “fact checking” org, your value is your credibility.
Which politifact has thoroughly trashed.
The only question is how long it takes for people to notice. https://t.co/KZpA5kUUWK
