Politico’s attempt to call out Vice Presidential nominee J.D. Vance backfired in a huge and hilarious way.
Apparently. the outlet took issue with Vance pointing out that the Biden-Harris administration is, in fact, run by President Joe Biden and Vice President Harris. This surprise led to a bizarre headline: ‘Our corrupt leadership’: Vance tries to tether Harris to Biden during Michigan rally.
This led to some pretty funny responses on X:

It also resulted in what some are calling the “greatest Community Note of all time.”

“The headline states ‘JD Vance tries to tether Harris to Biden.’ Harris is currently President Biden’s Vice President,” the note reads, with a handy link to the White House website.
Needless to say, this was probably not how Politico expected this story to go:
I knew the corporate press was shameless but I didn’t realize that they were this stupid

The right wing media is trying to frame Kamala Harris as Biden’s vice president, but she denies that she ever had that title.
