As Twitchy told you yesterday, the quality fact checkers at Snopes determined that Joe Biden’s highly dubious war story couldn’t really be called “false,” even though “key details” of Biden’s story were totally wrong.
To claim that Joe Biden’s story is false might give readers the misleading impression that the soldier at the center of it doesn’t exist. He does exist, and he did, in his grief, tell Biden he didn’t want the medal Biden pinned on him in 2011. https://t.co/Iji1shihpm

Understandably, that got the Babylon Bee’s attention. After all, Snopes has Top Men™ dedicated to debunking the Babylon Bee’s satire, but when faced with an actual BS story, Snopes suddenly doesn’t see a need to check the facts. Or check themselves. Which is why they found themselves getting wrecked once again by the Babylon Bee:

"Sometimes two and two make four. Sometimes they are five. Sometimes they are three. Sometimes they are all of them at once," said Bob Snopes, founder of Snopes.

We can’t choose an excerpt because the whole thing’s just too perfect. You’ll have to read it for yourselves. Needless to say, the Babylon Bee has done it again.
