Well, he finally said her name…almost…
Peach State Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene headed into the State of the Union address determined to get President Biden to say Laken Riley’s name; the Georgia nursing student who was murdered by an illegal immigrant after slipping through Biden’s border.
Greene confronted Biden as he made his way to the lectern and handed him a “Laken Riley” pin.
“Laken Riley. Say her name, Mr. President,” Greene told Biden.
“I know how to say the name,” the president responded.
Joe Biden has no excuse.

But Joe quickly proved that he didn’t exactly know how to say the name; he called her “Lincoln Riley” while addressing the border crisis from the lectern.
“Lincoln Riley, an innocent young woman who was killed by an illegal. That’s right. But how many of the thousands of people are being killed by illegals,” Biden said.
MTG unloaded on Joe on X.
“Joe Biden’s policies killed Laken Riley. He finally tried to say her name, but couldn’t even say it correctly. It’s an absolute disgrace.”
