Same story, same result.
For the third time this week, President Biden told an audience that he discussed the Jan, 6, 2021, riot at the US Capitol with European leaders who were actually dead at the time.
On Wednesday, Biden told Democratic donors in New York that he spoke about the riot with former German Chancellor Helmut Kohl, whose death pre-dates the event by nearly half a decade.
The shocking gaffe comes just days after the 81-year-old president confused French President Emmanuel Macron with the country’s ex-leader Francois Mitterrand — who died in 1996.
Biden made the blunder Wednesday in front of audiences at two separate fundraisers as he regaled donors with an anecdote about his first international trip as president – to the 2021 G-7 summit in Great Britain – after his 2020 election win over former President Donald Trump.
“I showed up … and I sat down and said, ‘America’s back,’ and [French President Emmanuel] Macron looked at me and said, ‘For how long?’ How long? Not a joke,” Biden recalled, according to a pool report of the president’s stop at the home of Maureen White, whose husband Steven Rattner manages billionaire former Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s fortune.
“Helmut Kohl said, ‘Joe, what would you think if you picked up the phone and picked up the paper tomorrow and learned in the London Times, on the front page, that 1,000 people stormed the Parliament, broke down the doors of the House of Commons and killed 2 bobbies in the process … trying to stop the election of a prime minister?’” he added.
Kohl, who served as the chancellor of Germany from 1982 to1998, died in 2017 – nearly four years before the 2021 G7 summit.

Someone once joked princes and prelates don’t pass the Pearly Gate, so....
“Helmut Kohl said, ‘Joe, what would you think if you picked up the phone and picked up the paper tomorrow and learned in the London Times, on the front page, that 1,000 people stormed the Parliament, broke down the doors of the House of Commons and killed 2 bobbies in the process … trying to stop the election of a prime minister?’” he added.
Which is not what happened in DC on January 6th, 2021 at all.
An unarmed woman was shot and killed by armed capital police. No police was killed at all. None - zero.
And just because Helmut Kohl died years ago, doesn’t mean the decrepit one didn’t talk to him - conversing with demons is a normal thing for evil.
It’s a little too obvious how screwed up CA is.
It’s also a little too obvious how screwed up the USA is, but here we are.
"Not a joke"...
Biden's Hell will be to spend eternity in a stinking, stifling conference hall where everyone laughs at anything that comes out of his mouth. And he'll be forced to end every sentence with "Not a joke!"
