Report: White House Officials Pressured Stenographers to Edit Biden’s ‘Garbage’ Smear

White House press officials reportedly pressured stenographers to cover up President Joe Biden’s “garbage” smear by editing the transcript to alter its meaning.

The coverup was “a breach of protocol and spoilation of transcript integrity between the Stenography and Press Offices,” according to a stenographer supervisor’s email obtained by the Associated Press (AP).

“The only garbage I see floating out there is his [Trump] supporters,” Biden said Tuesday.

The White House stenographers added an apostrophe to “supporters” and an em-dash to alter the meaning of Biden’s statement.

White House press officials pressured the stenographers, charged with preparing accurate transcripts for National Archives’s preservation, but the stenographers drew objections to the changes, according to two U.S. government officials and an internal email obtained by the Association Press.
