In an attempt to clean up the Biden Presidency, media outlets have been bending over backwards to retell the stories of a heroin presidency. Lawrence O’Donnell exemplified this Tuesday night on MSNBC’s The Last Word with his coverage of the Hudson River Tunnel, and Biden’s groundbreaking impact on the project.

Though Biden’s $11 billion grant towards the New York City transportation occurred last July, Lawrence dug up the story along with Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg (DoT) as an opportunity to glorify Biden’s work:

It should be called “The Biden Tunnel.” It is the most complex infrastructure project funded by Joe Biden. It will provide a third tunnel across the Hudson River between New York City and New Jersey, one of the most important interstate links in the country. As the vehicular traffic has increased across the Hudson river over the last 50 years, there has not been one additional lane added to that crossing.

New York Senator, Daniel Patrick Moynihan, for 24 years in the senate, was a champion of the tunnel that never got built, so were some New York governors, New York City mayors, no one could get it done, no one. Then came Joe Biden.
