Someone had to ask…
During Wednesday’s White House press briefing, Washington Times reporter Jeff Mordock asked White House National Security Council spokesman John Kirby the $64,000 question: what’s up with Joe’s lies?
“The president has lied about being at Ground Zero the day after the Sept. 11 attacks, falsely claimed he saw the Pittsburgh bridge collapse, claimed his grandfather died in the hospital days before his birth. What is going on with the president? Is he just believing things that didn’t happen did happen, or is he just randomly making stuff up?” Mordock asked Kirby.
Kirby, of course, dodged the question, instead deciding to talk about Biden’s trip to Alaska.
“The president was deeply touched and honored to be able to spend 9/11 with military members there in Alaska and some families and was honored by their presence and the chance to make an important set of remarks about why we need to continue to remember that day. And he did that,” said Kirby.
“And he spoke about a visit to Ground Zero, which he did participate in about a week or so after the event, and what that looked and what that smelled and what that felt like. And it had a visceral impact on him as it did so many other Americans on that terrible day.”
That doesn’t answer the question, Kirby!
