He just can’t help himself.
Joe Biden on Monday evening told a whopper of a lie at the White House Hanukkah reception and claimed he has gotten over 100 hostages out from Gaza.
“I know this year’s Hanukkah falls on the hearts that are still very heavy. It’s the second Hanukkah since the horrors of October 7. Over 1,000 slaughtered, hundreds taken hostage, unspeakable sexual violence and so much more. The trauma of that day and its aftermath is still raw and ongoing,” Joe Biden said.
Then he claimed he has gotten over 100 hostages out.
“I’ve gotten over 100 hostages out. I will not stop so I get every single one of them home,” Biden added.
“I’ve said many times before, my commitment to the safety of the Jewish people and security of Israel and its right to exist as an independent nation-state remains ironclad,” he said.
Biden claimed he took his grandchildren to see the Nazi concentration camps in Europe to teach them about the Holocaust.
“I wanted them to know that you couldn’t pretend it didn’t happen, and it should never happen again,” Biden said.
“And so I learned a long time ago, you don’t have to be a Jew to be a Zionist. I’m a Zionist,” Biden said.
