A few hours later, for undisclosed reasons, the X ‘community note’ was changed to simply say “the video was cropped,” w/a link to a 14-minute clip on the YouTube channel of #SinclairBroadcasting, another #conservative outlet. The new note does little to combat the framing of the post: “President Biden appeared to wander off at the G-7 summit in Italy, with officials needing to pull him back to focus.”

An X community note was added to the video clip, saying: “Biden didn’t ‘wander off’. After viewing a skydiving demo with the other G-7 leaders, #Biden stepped aside to speak with one of the other skydivers who is kneeling on the ground packing away his chute. The video in the above post has been digitally altered to remove the skydiver.”

This past week, the #RNC feed has misleadingly called attention to 2 video clips of #Biden. One was so distorted that it resulted in a “community note” on the X platform calling out its dishonesty. But the RNC’s dismal track record has not stopped right-leaning outfits from echoing the RNC’s framing & reinforcing its narrative that Biden has lost a step.

#RightWing #media shares clip of #Biden w/o context — again
"…you can see at the 4 sec mark, 8/10 world leaders, incl Biden are looking towards the man on the right packing the parachute…Biden began saying something to him as the others had their attn shifted in the other direction….Once again, focusing on an edited 30-sec clip doesn't tell a full story. Stop being disingenuous,” Brian Krassenstein wrote.

Today, a prominent #NewYorkTimes columnist called on one of the two candidates to drop out. Astonishingly, it wasn’t the #authoritarian #felon who inspired a #violent mob to attack the Capitol, tried to overturn a #democratic #election, has been banned from doing #business in #NewYork due to #fraud [& liable for #SexualAssault]—& yet again showcased his loose grip on #reality by ranting about #sharks.

By contrast, when #Biden makes a gaffe—mixing up a name or a date rather than, for example, suggesting that boats sink because they’re heavy—questions arise about his mental fitness to be president. A president who occasionally misspeaks is far less worrying than one who purveys #delusional fantasies & #ConspiracyTheories. Biden may gaffe, but he lives in #reality; Trump often doesn’t.

These #deranged rants are tempting to laugh off. They’re par for the course. #Trump is Trump. But Trump may also soon be the president of the #UnitedStates. Imagine the response if Joe #Biden had made the same #rambling remarks, word for word. Consider this excerpt (pic)

If #Trump had been able to ask his uncle about the risks of being electrocuted by a boat battery because, as Trump put it, “there’s a lot of electric current coming through that water,” perhaps the professor would have informed him that high-capacity batteries would rapidly discharge in seawater & pose minuscule risk to humans because the water conducts electricity far better than human bodies do.
-
#Trump, undeterred by #truth or #science, invoked his intellectual credentials by mentioning his “relationship to MIT.” (Trump’s uncle was a professor at the university, pioneering rotational radiation therapy, which seems a somewhat tenuous connection for conferring shark- or battery-related expertise to his nephew.)

Here is the supercut by #PopularInformation [@juddlegum] in 2 parts. It gets old fast, remarkably it’s a full 6 minutes of #LocalNews anchors across the country saying the same thing.
1/2 videos

#LocalNews channels across the country used a nearly identical script to push coverage of a controversial @WSJ article questioning President Joe #Biden’s mental fitness.
An eerie supercut compiled by #PopularInformation shows how anchors on dozens of channels owned by #SinclairBroadcastGroup parroted the story in a coordinated fashion.

After reading a transcript I had to watch it, & hearing/seeing it is even crazier.
#ElectricVehicles rant complete w/weird electrocution vs shark proximity dilemma & a subsequent inane falsehood about the weight of EVs requiring every bridge in America to have to be rebuilt & somehow manages to conclude w/ transgender athletes starts at minute 41:40 seconds in the pbs YouTube link.
