WaPo’s Glenn Kessler Squeezes Out Last Laughable ‘Fact-Check’ and X Rapidly Responds with the Truth – Twitchy

Another day, another Democrat propagandist has jumped ship at The Washington Post with a buyout in hand. ‘Fact-checker’ Glenn Kessler (we’ll give you a moment to stop laughing) squeezed out his last ‘fact check’ for WaPo on Thursday and got exactly the response you would expect from the people he’s misled for 14 years. His farewell article is behind a paywall, so we’ll just assume it’s the typical self-important ‘Democracy won’t survive without MEEEEEE!!!!’ slop we’re used to getting from Kessler’s fellow ‘journalists.’

Here’s his post. (READ)

My final #FactChecker –> The Fact Checker rose in an era of false claims. Falsehoods are now winning. https://t.co/x9F8IDRXJy

Congrats on yet another humiliation dude!

It’s not over yet. He’s still Glenn Kessler, after all.

Posters acknowledge that ‘fact-checkers’ were created in response to the influence of social media and the Democrat Party’s growing struggles in pushing and maintaining fake narratives.

Lol, the fake “fact-checkers” were the tip of the spear for the era of fake news.

The legacy of you and your brethren is the justifiable collapse of trust in legacy media, and the corresponding rise in alternative media.

“Factchecker” was, from the beginning, simply a rapid response media operation to support Democrats.

There was never fact checking just Democrat propaganda

— Phil (@RealPhillyP) July 31, 2025

You’ll notice the decline in Democrat propaganda corresponds with the mass layoffs of ‘journalists’ and the fading influence of legacy media.

While Kessler impotently pounds his chest about the importance of ‘fact-checkers,’ commenters made sure to remind him of all the lies he and his fellow hacks pushed on the public.

Covid natural origins hoax
Fine people hoax
Russia hoax
Ukraine hoax

What’d I miss, Glenn?

Your paper won a Pulitzer for publishing lies. Fact check that, dummy.

If they truly believed in facts and journalism, those Pulitzer Prize medals and cash awards would have already been returned.

Kessler, like all dutiful Dem ‘journos’ at WaPo and beyond, made excuses for the Biden family. That’s a fact!

Here’s Glenn, making excuses for Biden. He’s a “fact checker”, remember. 🤷 pic.twitter.com/661pn2heyD

The stutter which no one ever mentioned until 2020. 50 years after he entered public life.

Exactly. 👍With “public life” being key words.

I forget – was the Hunter laptop real or was it Russian disinformation?

When the Fact Checkers need a Fact Checker.
Sheesh!

The best part about buyouts is that the trash takes itself out.
