This is too stupid. Just another right-wing lie about Biden’s policies. This is right there with their nonsense on Dr. Seuss and Mr. Potato Head. How can Biden negotiate with liars?

There is no Biden plan to force Americans to eat less red meat. The policy Fox discussed on at least five shows on Friday and Saturday, and that Republican governors and members of Congress have denounced, is completely imaginary.

Saw Greg Abbott comment on this fake "Biden plan" yesterday – it's a Daily Mail listicle based on a 2020 U of M paper unrelated to Biden. But colleagues point out today that Idaho's gov also jumped on, and Nikki Haley's group created a meme for her to RT pic.twitter.com/ksoYAeXHd5

Fox gently acknowledges that its coverage about Biden supposedly trying to force Americans to eat less red meat wasn't accurate: "A graphic and a script incorrectly implied that it was part of Biden's plan for dealing with climate change. That is not the case." pic.twitter.com/iClZSk8P4M
