Except neither the cited news story headline nor the article actually mentioned anything about Biden.Actually not. It's like this:
Is she a TSA official? Yes.
Is this the Biden Administration? Yes.
Presto! A Biden Administration TSA official.
Welcome to the wonderful world of headlines.
Now, if the post had "Biden Appointee," then it would be false. It didn't take much effort to find the suspect was hired in 2002.
I suspect that was an "editorial decision" make by the author of the thread to make an implication.
And given that the position is basically just a middle management position, it seems silly to try to implicate Biden in it.
I certainly have no problem criticizing the things the I feel are wrong with the Biden administration and some of the choices they make...I've been quite vocal about it (as I'm sure many of the progressive ilk on CF can attest to), but this one was "weak sauce".
If we found out that some middle management person at a mega-org did this same thing, lumping the CEO in the thread title would be considered laughable.
If the "assistant director of facilities management" at a single Toyota plant location did this, we wouldn't even think to bring the Toyota CEO's name into the discussion.
