Misbar’s Analysis
This isn’t the first time Misbar has investigated a photo allegedly depicting Biden groping a younger woman; and like last time, we discovered that the photo is a fake. We conducted a reverse image search of the photo and found that Biden is not even in the original.
Rodrigo discussed the importance of young Americans receiving the COVID-19 vaccine during her visit at the White House.
The pop star's vintage Chanel outfit spurred much discussion and countless memes.
Biden and Rodrigo met later in the day, and released a series of comical images.
However, Biden isn’t groping Rodrigo in any of them.
