President Joe Biden delivered his big speech to mark the third anniversary of the January 6, 2021 chaos at the Capitol and as the teller of tall tales is prone to do, he embellished a key detail.
On Friday, the octogenarian demagogue uncorked his ugly rant for a small crowd near historic Valley Forge, PA, a location chosen for its Revolutionary War connection at a time when his regime is persecuting GOP frontrunner Donald J. Trump and his supporters like England’s King George once did to American patriots.
During the 30 minute diatribe, Biden claimed that he and First Lady Jill Biden attended the funerals of police officers who were killed during the so-called “insurrection” against the government.

“Over 140 police officers injured. Jill and I attended the funerals of police officers who died as a result of the events that day. Because of Donald Trump’s lies. They died because these lies brought a mob to Washington,” Biden claimed.
But the notoriously dishonest career politician left out one very pertinent detail, the fact that the actual number of cops who lost their lives on the fateful day was zero.
Most famously there was Officer Brian Sicknick who the media falsely claimed was killed by a Trump supporter who allegedly hit him in the head with a fire extinguisher but the reality is that the Capitol Police officer died from natural causes the day AFTER the J6 mayhem.
But why let the truth get in the way of a good story.
As usual, the professional “fact checkers” were missing in action, leaving the work of calling out Biden’s malarkey to X users.
No police officers died as a result of January 6th.

Fun fact, no officers died on J6.

Well, this is literally science fiction and part of “The Big Lie” in that there was no funerals for him to attend as no members of law enforcement on died on 6 January or after…there were several suicides of police officers, but Biden did not attend their funerals either… https://t.co/hhNPiaTKYp

Biden is so clueless. There were ZERO funerals. And if officers died on Jan 6, how come no one was charged with murder?

Name the officer and the funeral. I’ll wait

Only person that was murdered was an unarmed female Veteran.

Pretty hard to do since no police died on Jan 6.

Biden’s exploitation of January 6th as a cornerstone of his reelection campaign would be easier if he could get the date right, a challenge for the elderly Democrat.

After Biden’s Valley Forge demagoguery, he did manage to find his way off the stage at Montgomery County Community College in nearby Blue Bell, thanks to Mrs. Biden.

The big lie is the coin of the realm for Democrats and their dishonest allies and few are more practiced at it than Biden.
