On Thursday, left-wing fact-check or PolitiFact, a site known more for its biases than its quality fact-checking, stepped into a pile of doo-doo once again. This time they blasted President Trump with a fake news fact-check that demonstrates just how dishonest they are. Here is their headline. White House tweet wrongly says Obamacare led to fewer insurance options, and they say mostly false. So what did the White House say that was so wrong?

Trump said, quote, Obamacare has led to fewer health insurance options for millions of Americans.

This is indisputably true. Just yesterday, Anthem Blue Cross pulled out of the Obamacare exchanges

in Wisconsin and Indiana. Health insurance rates have risen dramatically. As CNBC reported last week,

quote, as many as 1,200 counties are projected to have

just one such insurer next year. More counties could be left bare or with just one insurer

in coming weeks as insurers announced their intentions, unquote. And this doesn't take into account

the fact that many Obamacare plans have cut patients off from their doctors. If you liked your doctor,

you couldn't keep your doctor. Those who have been added to the insurance rolls under Obamacare aren't actually buying health insurance for the most part. They're being forced onto Medicaid by lack of options. So, instead of dealing with that claim, Politifact made up an unrelated claim that the number of insured had dropped overall. Nobody said that, though. If you count Medicaid coverage, which doesn't actually improve health outcomes, the numbers are up. But that's not what Trump claimed. Here's Politifact admitting the truth all the way at the bottom of their little fact check. The sole threat of truth is that with the insurance exchanges set up by the law, the number of carriers has dwindled. Oh, you mean the only claim here that Trump made was true? And then you made

up a series of alternative claims to knock down. Politifact is ridiculous. Their drive to check

fake news from the left only makes them purveyors of that same fake news. I'm Ben Shapiro. This is

The Ben Shapiro show. Okay, so they finally just released the Senate healthcare version, the Obamacare, quote-unquote, repeal.

It is not a repeal. It is even more of a trash heap than the House version that passed.

I was very critical of that version.

Version one was really bad. Version two was slightly less bad.

The Senate version is really quite crappy.

It's going to pass probably, and the reason that it will pass, I would think, is because of two things.

One, it defunds Planned Parenthood, and two, it basically allows Republicans to go out there and claim

that they repealed Obamacare when they did no such thing. But we'll talk about that in a little

while after I want to discuss Trump in Iowa. But before we do any of those things, I first want to say thank you to our sponsors over at My Patriot Supply. So if you're a smart person, you know that you ought to prepare for emergencies. There are going to be situations in life where there's some sort of natural disaster or, God forbid, a man-made disaster where the government can't get to you right away.

There's an earthquake.

There's a flood.
