Biden Isn’t Giving a 3 Trillion Plane to Iran
The Claim
President Joe Biden is sending $3 trillion dollars to Iran in the form of a private jet and cash.
Emerging story
The article shared on social media was published on America’s Last Line of Defense. It makes the claim that Biden’s sending all this money to Iran as an apology for the death of Qassem Soleimani, the late commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps who was killed via Trump’s order last year. This article was shared on social media.
Misbar’s Analysis
This article is obviously satire. The website’s tagline says “Satire for your confirmation bias,” while the article itself is officially listed in the “Biden satire for delusional Trumpsters to hate” category. Other headlines in the category include “Company that Cloned Biden Issues Massive Recall.”
The article itself doesn’t make a whole lot of sense, either. The Dassault Falcon 8X – the jet that Biden is allegedly sending to Iran – costs $58 million dollars. Apparently, it’s supposed to come with a payload containing trillions of USD, but what that means exactly in uncertain.
