"I was always against the war in Afghanistan"
During an interview with CBS News Correspondent Rita Braver, Biden brought up Afghanistan, claiming that he opposed the war from the beginning and shifting responsibility for the disastrous withdrawal.
"Afghanistan. Well, I've been against that war in Afghanistan from the very beginning," Biden said. "We're spending $300 million a week in Afghanistan over 20 years."
Then a senator from Delaware, he joined his colleagues in a unanimous vote in support of the 2001 authorization of military force against "nations, organizations, or persons" that then-President George W. Bush determined to have helped perpetrate the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
Biden has repeatedly touted his opposition to then-President Barack Obama's "surge" of additional troops into Afghanistan when Biden was vice president in 2009. That opposition, however, does not amount to Biden having been "against that war … from the very beginning."

I read here once from one of our resident lefties that the lie about Trump's "fine people" comment is so pervasive and widely accepted on the left, that when Biden says it, it's likely just an honest mistake rather than a conscious lie.

When you've lost Politi"fact"
Biden said Dec. 14 that people vaccinated for COVID-19 "do not spread the disease to anyone else."
White House officials did not respond to our email asking for evidence, but Biden’s statement conflicts with information by the CDC that it is "likely that vaccinated people with breakthrough infection or people infected without symptoms can spread the virus to others." While the information from the CDC presentation was a couple of days after Biden spoke, it echoes what the CDC said in August about the potential for vaccinated people to transmit the virus.
Experts told us that getting vaccinated protects individuals from severe cases including hospitalization and death and reduces the chance of transmission, but Biden went too far when he suggested that vaccination completely eliminates the chance of transmission.
We rate this statement Mostly False.

Does the fact that he repeatedly talks about his six grandchildren when he has seven count as a lie?

Well, yeah. That's too awkward, of course.
But, why does Lyin' Joe hate strippers' children?

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
