Papua New Guinea's leader has dismissed Joe Biden's suggestion that his uncle was eaten by cannibals there as 'loose' talk that does not reflect the US president's feelings for the country. 'Sometimes you have loose moments,' PNG leader James Marape said in an interview after Biden's contentious remarks, adding that the relationship was stronger than 'one blurry moment'. Biden said last week that his uncle Ambrose Finnegan was shot down over the Pacific during the second World War: '(He) got shot down in an area where there were a lot of cannibals at the time. They never recovered his body.'

The other day, we told you about Biden lying -- again -- about his uncle Bosey getting eaten by cannibals after his plane was shot down during WWII. We also told you about the hilarious hashtag this lie inspired. But not everyone is laughing. In fact, some academics in Papua New Guinea are offended: 'They wouldn't just eat any white men that fell from the sky': Outraged Papua New Guinea academics lash out at Biden's 'unacceptable' suggestion that cannibals ate his WW2 pilot uncle https://t.co/vNFYeegi9X pic.twitter.com/UzSemZcxSR — Daily Mail Online (@MailOnline) April 19, 2024 More from The Daily Mail: Outraged...

""Old Joe Biden Says He Took Train Across the Collapsed Francis Scott Key Bridge “Many Times” – That’s Odd, Considering the Bridge Does Not Have a Rail Line!""" Joe Biden told reporters on Tuesday that he hade taken the TRAIN over the Francis Scott Key Bridge “many times.” Joe Biden: “About 1:30 a container ship struck the Francis Scott Key Bridge which I’ve been over many, many times commuting from the state of Delaware either by train or by car.” That’s odd, considering their is no rail line on the bridge. The bridge was built for automobiles and trucks.

Over the past year, Team Biden has been conducting war games, crafting complex legal strategies, and devoting extensive resources to prepare for, as one former senior Biden administration official puts it, “all-hell-breaks-loose” scenarios. The preparations include planning for a contingency in which Biden’s margin of victory is so razor-thin that Trump and the GOP launch a tidal wave of legal challenges and political maneuvers to rerun his 2020 election strategy: declare victory anyways, and try to will it into existence. “President Biden has been worried, for a while now, that Donald Trump is going to try to steal the election,...

"Donald Trump is weak and desperate-both as a man and a candidate for President. He spent the weekend golfing, the morning comparing himself to Jesus, and the afternoon lying about having money he definitely doesn't have. His campaign can't raise money, he is uninterested in campaigning outside his country club, and every time he opens his mouth, he pushes moderate and suburban voters away with his dangerous agenda. America deserves better than a feeble, confused, and tired Donald Trump."

President Biden on Tuesday touted the decrease in crime in 2023, citing data from the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI). The FBI data, released on Tuesday found that the U.S. experienced 11 percent less crime in cities over 1 million people compared to 2022, 13 percent fewer murders overall and 6 percent less violent crime. “Across America, families want the same thing: the freedom to feel safe in their community. To know their kids are secure. My Administration is making it a reality,” Biden said in a statement. Biden said that in 2020, before he took office, “the prior administration...

It was always asinine for President Joe Biden’s administration to claim that they “nearly” added 15 million jobs since the pandemic, and it apparently stank so much that even leftist fact-checker Snopes didn’t let it pass the smell test. In a shocking twist, Snopes analyzed that the Biden administration’s propagandized claim on how star-spangled awesome its job creation numbers were was “misleading” in a March 21 fact check. According to Snopes, “About 9 million of those jobs were lost during the pandemic, so the net jobs gain from pre-pandemic levels was 5.5 million.” In other words, the “15 million” claim...

President Biden in a Saturday interview doubled down on his commitment to stand by Black Americans and pointed to his record of support for Black-owned small businesses and to strong job creation numbers. “You promised Black America that … you’d have our back. Do you feel you have our backs?” MSNBC’s Jonathan Capehart asked Biden in a clip that aired Sunday. “I have your back, as much as any president has in American history since Lyndon Johnson,” Biden responded. “Black wealth has increased by 60 percent, across the board.”

Here’s the definitive list of Biden’s biggest State of the Union falsehoods. President Biden has been known to tell some pretty outrageous lies throughout his political career. So, it came as no surprise when Ol’ Sleepy Joe spewed out more than a few whoppers during his State of the Union address on Thursday. From foreign policy to the economy, there was almost no subject in which the president didn’t lie to the American people. In case you missed his dumpster fire speech, here’s the definitive list of Biden’s biggest SOTU falsehoods. 1. Sending Money To Ukraine Biden claimed that Republicans...

President Biden blamed the media Friday after he was caught saying on a hot mic the previous evening that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu needed a “come to Jesus” talk about the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip. “I didn’t say that,” Biden tried to argue when asked about the incident as he left the White House for a campaign trip to Philadelphia. When pressed, Biden groused, “You guys eavesdropped on me.” The president, 81, made the awkward comment about the Jewish state’s head of government while mingling with lawmakers following his State of the Union address — asking Sen....

One thing’s for sure: Smokin’ Joe Biden came out punching Thursday night in his campaign rally – oops, State of the Union address. That is, when Biden finally got to the House chamber after dissing assembled members of Congress and a national audience by leaving the White House right when he was to enter the Capitol. Then rudely breached protocol by tromping all over the speaker’s time-honored, bipartisanship-building privilege of introducing the chief executive. But those acts of contempt were nothing compared to 68 minutes of diatribe, disputation, deception, and most important, divisiveness then unleashed by America’s counterfeit commander-in-chief. Let’s...

Wednesday, during an appearance on Fox News Channel, Sen. Chris Coons (D-DE) said to expect President Joe Biden to lay out his accomplishment while in office during Thursday’s State of the Union address. Among those, according to the Delaware Democrat, was how Biden “brought us together.” “Even when you talk about Israel support, even within his party, your party, and that even with the success he’s had in the economy, you’re quite right, a good many of economic numbers are turning around, very few giving him credit for it,” FNC host Neil Cavuto said. “What do you think?” “Well look,...

President Biden was inaugurated Jan. 20, 2021. Weeks later, Feb. 2, he issued the executive order that began the unraveling at the border in earnest.

Lawyers for President Joe Biden's immigration agencies admit disclosing locations of secret migrant flights would open up potential vulnerabilities. Customs and Border Protection refuses to disclose information about a program last year secretly chartering flights of thousands of undocumented immigrants from foreign airports directly to U.S. cities. This means that while record numbers of migrants were flowing over the southern border last year, the Biden White House was also directly transporting them into the country despite them holding no legal status.

President Biden began his remarks during a Thursday visit to the southern border in Texas by addressing a devastating wildfire in the state’s panhandle and Oklahoma before calling climate change deniers “neanderthals.” Speaking in the border city of Brownsville, Biden first addressed the ongoing wildfire that has ravaged a portion of Texas and destroyed more than one million acres. “I’ve flown over a lot of these wildfires since I’ve been president,” Biden said. “Flown over more land burned to the ground. All the vegetation gone more than the entire state of Maryland in square footage.” “The idea there’s no such...

President Joe Biden is insisting that he made the right decisions on the withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021, despite the deaths of 13 service members during a suicide bombing outside the Kabul airport as the evacuations were taking place, according to a new book. "No one offered to resign, in large part because the president didn't believe anyone had made a mistake," Politico's Alexander Ward wrote in "The Internationalists: The Fight to Restore Foreign Policy After Trump," reported Axios. "Ending the war was always going to be messy." After the withdrawal, Biden told his top aides, including national security adviser...

The Biden White House is scrapping a decades-old rule that bars administration officials from commenting on economic data for one hour after their release, a notice in the Federal Register indicated Wednesday. Faced with polls showing that the public strongly disapproves of President Joe Biden’s management of economic issues, the White House is changing the rules to give them a new advantage when it comes to spinning economic data in a more favorable light. Instead of the one-hour waiting period that has been in place since the Reagan years, administration officials will be able to weigh in on important economic...

President Joe Biden blamed former President Donald Trump and “MAGA Republicans” for the broken border system and his administration’s expected failure to convince Congress to pass a $118 billion bill that would allot $20 billion for border security but $60 billion for Ukraine. “Now, all indications are this bill won’t even move forward to the Senate floor. Why? A simple reason: Donald Trump,” Biden said during a public address on Tuesday. He claimed that Trump thinks the bill is “bad for him politically,” and, therefore, it is being opposed by Republicans in the House and Senate.

President Joe Biden claimed during a White House press conference this week that if Congressional Republicans do not pass his highly controversial border bill, former President Donald Trump will be “the only reason the border is not secure.” Biden made the remarks after setting numerous records during his presidency for the historic number of illegal aliens that have stormed through the southern border. Biden, who repeatedly stated throughout his first three years in office that the border was secure and that there was no crisis, has now changed his views on the issue as polling ahead of the November elections...

Disinformation poses an unprecedented threat to democracy in the United States in 2024, according to researchers, technologists and political scientists. As the presidential election approaches, experts warn that a convergence of events at home and abroad, on traditional and social media — and amid an environment of rising authoritarianism, deep distrust, and political and social unrest — makes the dangers from propaganda, falsehoods and conspiracy theories more dire than ever. The U.S. presidential election comes during a historic year, with billions of people voting in other elections in more than 50 countries, including in Europe, India, Mexico and South Africa....
