Sky News host Gabriella Power has mocked US president Joe Biden for lying in a recent interview.

President Biden falsely claimed that the inflation rate was 9% when he began his presidency.

The inflation rate in January 2021 was 1.4%.

“Let’s not let the truth get in the way of a good story,” Ms Power said.

“Either Joe Biden hasn’t figured out that the American people are smart, and they can tell when they are being lied to ... Or Joe Biden has lied about this so much he actually believed it to the truth."
