WASHINGTON, DC - In what shouldn’t be a surprise coming from “the most transparent administration in history,” the handlers for Joe Biden again played fast and loose with an official transcript in what has seemingly become a regular way of conducting business.
Biden’s latest blunder came during a speech where he insinuated that blacks, Hispanics, and members of the armed services “don’t have high school diplomas.” That statement came during an address where he bragged about “Bidenomics” at Prince George’s Community College in Maryland.
“We’ve seen record lows in unemployment particularly—and I’ve focused on this my whole career—particularly for African Americans, and Hispanic workers and veterans, you know, the workers without high school diplomas,” Biden said in his remarks, which were televised.
Ah, but not so fast. Despite video evidence to the contrary, a transcript released by the White House claimed there was supposed to be the word “and” separating African American, Hispanic, and veterans with his insulting comment about those without high school diplomas.
The White House said the remarks should have read: “We’ve seen record lows in unemployment particularly—and I’ve focused on this my whole career—particularly for African Americans and Hispanic workers and veterans, you know, and the workers without high school diplomas.”
Users on X, formerly Twitter, slammed Biden’s remarks: “What an embarrassment,” one said.
“This is incredibly sad. It is also infuriating,” tweeted another.
Some accused Biden of being “racist.”
Biden has a history of making remarks insulting racial or ethnic groups. During several speeches, he stated, “I may be Irish, but I’m not stupid,” insulting the Irish.
During the 2020 presidential campaign, Biden told Charlamagne tha God, host of The Breakfast Club, “I tell you if you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black!”
During a campaign event in Iowa in 2019, Biden told supporters, “Poor kids are just as bright and talented as white kids.” And this was before the Alzheimer’s set in.
Also in 2019, Biden intimated that all black children wearing hoodies aren’t “gangbangers,” referring to Trayvon Martin, “We’ve got to recognize that the kid wearing a hoodie may very well be the next poet laureate and not a gangbanger.”
Let us also not forget about Biden’s history with segregationists, including his close friendship with the late Sen. Robert Byrd (D-W.Va), an official with the KKK. He has also touted his friendship with two other segregationist senators, Sens. James Eastland (D-MS) and Herman Talmadge (D-GA), who firmly opposed desegregation efforts.
“I was in a caucus with James O. Eastland,” Biden said at one time. “He never called me boy. He always called me son.”
Speaking of using the word “boy,” Biden came under fire this weekend after he referred to actor LL Cool J as a “boy,” deemed a derogatory term for black people. According to the Daily Mail, Charlamagne tha God slammed Biden for the blunder. That blunder took place during a Congressional Black Caucus Foundation dinner on Saturday.
In his latest battle with the teleprompter, Biden also screwed up LL Cool J’s name, referring to him as LL J Cool J.
“By the way, that boy—that man’s got biceps bigger than my thighs,” Biden said, catching himself mid-sentence.
Charlamagne was not amused and dubbed Biden his “Donkey of the Day.”
“He fully understands the word boy in the racial context around a white man referring to a black man, is boy. See, boy is absolutely a white racist word when used in a certain context. And I know that because I’m from South Carolina,” he said.
“When somebody uses the word boy to refer to an adult black man and the speaker is white, that takes on a whole different point in context.”
Charlamagne also took Biden to task for butchering LL Cool J’s name, noting he isn’t exactly new to the genre.
“This is a prime example of it doesn’t matter how many black people you are around, it doesn’t matter how many black people you have in your administration…if it’s not authentic to him, then it won’t come off as authentic to anyone.”

I believe it would be a challenge for Biden to graduate from high school today. Also, his son, Hunter, failed the Navy's drug test after his Daddy got a special appointment for him. I guess he forgot to study for the pee test.

Joe Biden thinks black people are elevator operators, caddies and shine boys and black women are maid. He is the most racist man in DC other than Obama. His best bus was Sen Byrd for God's sake who was the grand wizard of the KKK.

Joe Biden is a true statistical paradox in terms of mathematical probabilities. When a sitting president who, during his campaign for office, attained more votes than any other president in US history, likewise has the lowest poll ratings of any other president in US history, there's some serious dishonesty taking place within the machinations of our democracy. Common sense dictates that you cannot simultaneously be both the most popular and the least popular president in US history. Oh wait, we aren't allowed to question the legitimacy of our electoral system, lest we be indicted by multiple jurisdictions.
