Claim: Joe Biden wants to eliminate fracking. Our ruling: Partly false.

The claim that presidential candidate and former Vice President Joe Biden wants to eliminate fracking has been made for much of the presidential campaign.and is similar to an ad by America First Action, a pro-Trump Political Action Committee. It includes a video of Biden answering a question in a primary debate and a claim that Biden could cost Pennsylvania more than 600,000 jobs. The video says it is paid for by America First Action.

“No, we would — we would work it out. We would make sure it's eliminated and no more subsidies for either one of those, either — any fossil fuel,” Biden said in response.It’s unclear what Biden meant by “work it out” or when the elimination would occur, but the Biden campaign said he does not want to ban fracking. Biden’s energy plan and other comments he has made shed light on his plans.

Biden said he doesn’t believe there are enough votes in Congress to pass a federal law to deal with fracking.President Donald Trump accused Biden of being inconsistent on fracking during the final presidential debate on Oct. 22.

Trying to save Joe from himself, I see.

It doesn’t matter what joe wants to do since he is just a pawn. Kamala wants it stopped and if by some chance this election goes to them he will be removed very quickly. People need to learn about this nasty woman before voting. Lord help us if she ends up in the White House!

Give us a break USless Ass Today!

Oh you can find it false when it in freaking tape!!!

It’s not false He wants to eliminate the oil industry too Crazy

I’m voting for a man named TRUMP!! TRUMP 2020🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

We've watched Joe and what he said or didn't say for quite sometime. He changes like the seasons.

Oh now you use the word partly to help Biden lies. “Doctor Biden” in her speech today is using the death old his son to attract sympathy. Is there nothing sacred with these people. Biden lied about fracking , lied about his education and many more. Can’t be trusted, period.

You're FOS like the rest of the so-called 'fact checkers'.

usa is NUTS jlawrence he will end these jobs immediately

OK so he lied-show me a politician that does not lie? Biden-1 and Trump 1,000 ok, can we get on with it. Just VOTE people and remember-neither of them are great but only one can help start the healing process in the USA.

We are doomed if this is how we report. He clearly said by 2025. There are MULTIPLE videos of him saying he would end it. Why would he take such a stance if he didn’t plan on doing it during HIS TERM. I use to get so mad at people who said there was a media bias... but it’s true!

HappyOldSoul Fracking regulations need to be followed. Eventually we will migrate away from fracking as we move into the future with clean renewable energy. Anyone with a brain knows this!

You’ve gotta be kidding

Lmao

MSM: Biden did say these things but let’s pretend he didn’t.

Fracking causes cancer KnownFact if he can a better way of doing it, I'm cool with that. Families can still make money, but live to enjoy it. VotingBidenHarris

I want Joe Biden to eliminate fracking.

Ok, you are just trying to fix it. He clearly said no fracking, and in multiple other occasions, his hand gesture in the video clearly says what he means.

It that’s not what he said on video!

Lol sure it’s false we all heard him say exactly that

He is fracking liar. Will do anything to get fracking elected!

He said he would ban fracking on tape

Biden was wrong. It came in facts chek

'Partly false' but I can watch a video of him saying it with my own eyes. Tell me how fact checking works again

Captain bloody scarlet. Arms flailing all over the place.

Fracking is so wrong, every president should stop it !

...'and phase them out completely. Look at me, look at me, I promise we will put an end to any need for fossil fuels.'

Because you’re full in for Biden

Obama is a black agitator who has achieved nothing for and his people. He left only strife and chaos. He's a real blender and warmonger too. He only negotiated bad deals for America with Biden the criminal and corrupt Secretary of State who has enriched himself and his family.

“Our ruling” . Yea ok

Partly true....in other words.

Oh really? I call you fully false then.. Joe and Kamala both said it a lot...

USA Today: mostly fake

you just don't want to say 'true', right?

He has said it ON TAPE. Aren't you supposed to be journalists

I'm glad you guys have found one thing you can label that. how many are we on for Donald Trump?

He pretty much said he would phase it out. As in gone. As in end. As in get rid of.

He said On Federal Land.

FakeNewsMedia FakeNews

I understand why he says he won’t ban it, but can’t we all agree that fracking is bad? I know that people don’t want to hear that because those jobs are their livelihood, but we need to move past destroying the environment

45 is at it again. Campaign on your merits! You have done some good things...let people know what they will get in the next 4 years. Those should be your strong points...OMG. Forget it. Good luck. You have 10 days...

Partly false? Do you guys have a hearing problem or understanding problem?

You are literally the comic book of newspapers.

Mostly true. In reality True. He said it last night.

Lol, there’s video...

Partly false? He’s only on video multiple times saying he wants to eliminate fracking. USA Today is the most unreliable journalistic paper out there.

Quit covering for him. He said it and should own it

Mostly true

Biden wants NO FRACKING on Federal land! And I agree.

Do partly fake news companies fact check their own news? Why are they fact checking?

You think anyone trusts you🤣🤣

Except for all of the times he said it...checks notes, on tape...biasmedia

Who gives a frack. We have a desperate and deranged person with the nuclear codes. Let’s sort everything out after he’s removed.

You need to fact check your fact checker.

Claim: No one really knows where joe Biden stands on any issue. My Ruling: Very TRUE

Why don't you list how much money the oil companies donated to Trump, members of Congress, and Governors? I think American voters should know who's in the big oil companies pockets.

So he lied. Again.

CNN: 100% true.

An expected type of answer from McPaper.

We don't need you input. We saw the debate. He lied.

Fake News You need to be fact checked....It depends on what day it is and who is asking the question

Partly false? How about both ways Biden? bothwaysbiden

What the fracking you talking about?

Weak story! Is he or isn’t he?! You don’t have the guts to answer honestly. Good grief.

Biden and Obama swept over the American economy like a plague leaving it in ruins. I care not for the “successful” recovery of the broken economy that they created in the first place, and I will never forgive Joe Biden for making me a Trump supporter. Trump2020

For all the new born Babies, our President Trump who was made from twisted steel and sex appeal, his wife, our First Lady Melania and all of my fellow Americans. My grandkids and I singing The Star Spangled Banner.

He is literally on video promising to ban fracking. My ruling, you are fake news.

Ask the people who live around fracking and see how they feel about it. Their water is trash.

CNN In last debate Biden: He was answering the question & stressing that the issues will be based on a decision to consult with 'Republican / Democratic' party & Congress. TRUMP: The time allotted for answering useless words & more lies was wasted ; God bless America ; Thanks

Yep, USA Today know that just because JoeBiden says he wants to band fracking that you can’t believe a thing he says.

U sit on a throne of lies

Joe Biden wants to ban new fracking permits - TRUE

Actually it’s completely false .... because he’s said multiple times and on tape again last night in front of millions of Americans he said he wants to eliminate fossil fuels... that includes fracking.

Partly cloudy or mostly sunny? BiasedMedia

It's just amazing the number of times JoeBiden has to say to TRUMP 'That's NOT TRUE', during the 2 debates ! Each of TRUMP's sentences during the 2 debates are just LIES & FAKES, those are his every day OXYGEN! orlandosentinel nytimes nypost chicagotribune VanityFair CNN

My ruling Joe Biden swings in the wind- journalistic integrity is gone!

😂

C'mon USA today.... everybody knows your beliefs and your agenda. Newspaper would have more respect and better sales if you were not so bias. just my thought

markhokie

Burisma job, China loans, affair with brothers widow, $129k Porsche, Arkansas love child, drug addict, dishonorable discharge from the Navy.....wow, Russian intelligence has been busy.

Does that mean it’s partly true?

Fuck off, I watched the first democrat primary debate where he said he wanted to shut down all fracking, so he is a liar or a flip flopper. Either way, its true. There is no such thing as partly false.

I know folks that don’t like trump but are so sick of the media that they will vote for him.

Your analysis is FakeNews Please start reporting the news again that is not contaminated with commentary!

Joe lies more than trump

He said it now multiple times. Is not a question anymore

False?!? He said it multiple times!!!!

Okay, THE TRUTH I have seen and heard Biden states he wants to “Eliminate Fossil Fuels” Fracking is a process to extract Fossil Fuels. Truth is Truth if you eliminate one...now can you idiots connect the dots

In the tank for Biden

Said it repeatedly

Why don't you just come out for JOe and run a headline everyday until the election telling the world Trump is Hitler. Stop being coy.

He said it would be phased OUT. That means no more fracking down the road. You know. Like they did to coal and killed thousands of jobs.
