Joe isn't too great with his own history. How many times has he gotten information 'wrong' while telling stories of his family and the past?

So is he a pathological liar, or just losing it?

Just False': CNN Calls Out Biden on Claim He Visited Synagogue After Massacre

Jen Psaki's job of cleaning up after Joe Biden just got even tougher. She now has to try to explain away Biden's claim to have visited the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh after the 2018 anti-Semitic massacre there that killed 11 people.

There's just one problem with the claim: the synagogue says Biden never visited.

CNN called Biden out on it this morning. Reporter Daniel Dale, CNN's resident Biden fact-checker, said Biden's statement "appears to be just false." Not "just" in the sense of "barely" false. "Just" in the sense of "flat-out" false!

During the segment, CNN aired a clip of Biden's statement of yesterday in which he spoke of "spending time" at, and "going to," the Tree of Life synagogue. Here's some of CNN breaking down the falsehood:


DANIEL DALE: President Biden spoke with Jewish leaders yesterday in advance of Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, and he said something that appears to be just false. Biden said he remembered visiting the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh. He strongly suggested, after the synagogue was the site of an anti-Semitic terror attack in 2018 that killed 11 people.

JOE BIDEN: I remember spending time at the, you know, go-, going to, uh, the, uh, you know, the Tree of Life synagogue, speaking with, ma — it just, it just is amazing these things are happening. Happening in America.

DALE: There is a big problem here. The executive director of the Tree of Life synagogue told the New York Post that Biden had not actually visited. CNN reached out to the White House about this, and so far they have not been willing to comment. In other words, they have not disputed what the synagogue had told the Post. And CNN has found no news articles or anything else that would serve as evidence that Biden did visit.
