AllSides Media Bias Rating: Right
CLAIM: During his Thursday night presser, President Joe Biden claimed that “more children are killed by a bullet than any other cause of death.”
VERDICT: False, This is a regurgitation of an ongoing, false, leftist claim that guns are the number-one killer of children. Via fact checks, Breitbart News has shown again and again that in making this claim, the left counts people of voting age — ages 18 and 19 — as children.
Biden first made this claim on June 2, 2022, when he said, “Guns are the number one killer of children.”
