Once again, the camp that's quickest to cry "fake news" against any coverage critical of President Donald Trump has been caught distributing misleadingly edited videos to help their cause.

This latest video, shared by far-Right Trump ally Dan Scavino, is edited to appear as though former Vice President Joe Biden endorsed the man he's fighting to take on in November: Donald Trump himself.


Watch below.

In the video, Biden appears to say:

"We cannot win this reelection—excuse me—we can only reelect Donald Trump."

Trump soon shared the misleading video to his 70+ million followers.

But, the full quote says something quite different.

"We cannot win this reelection—excuse me—We can only reelect Donald Trump if, in fact, we get engaged in this circular firing squad here. It's gotta be a positive campaign."

The full speech is available here.

Fortunately, Twitter was one step ahead of Trump's efforts to deceive the public.

In a rare move, Twitter flagged the video as manipulated media, indicating to viewers that there was more to Biden's statements than it showed.

People didn't hesitate to call Trump and his supporters out.







Scavino and others claim the video wasn't manipulated—just shortened.

Sure.

Will Smith Sparks Rumors He'll Be Starring In A 'Matrix' Sequel After Sharing Cryptic Video

We're all human here, and sometimes, we can't help but imagine what might have been.

A long-standing bit of gossip from Hollywood is that I, Robot's Will Smith turned down the opportunity to star in The Matrix, believing that the film Wild, Wild West was a better fit for his film presence, not to mention his inaccurate prediction that his film would be more successful than the franchise that would cast Keanu Reeves as Neo.

Nebraska Republican Senator Deb Fischer's husband Bruce went viral after refusing to shake the hand of Vice President Kamala Harris—or even look at her—during his wife's swearing-in ceremony on Monday.

The exchange proceeded routinely, with Harris leading Senator Fischer in the oath of office. Fischer recited the oath, and the two shook hands as Harris thanked her for her contributions. However, when Harris turned to greet Bruce Fischer, saying, "May I extend congratulations to you?" and extending her hand, he declined to shake it, only saying, "Thank you," before averting his gaze.
