Biden lied again. The legacy corporate media covers for him, so you might not have heard about it. Biden told a doozy this time about his uncle getting eaten by cannibals.

Biden said his “Uncle Bosie” was shot down in a plane he was flying in combat over New Guinea during World War II, and then he was eaten by cannibals. But the true story has come out because the Pentagon keeps records. Uncle Bosie was not flying the plane (he was a passenger), it was not shot down (both engines failed) and it crashed into the Pacific Ocean, not into New Guinea.

And there is no record of cannibals eating Uncle Bosie.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre cleaned up after Biden’s lies on this one. She was mad and told him to stay in his lane, because lying to the nation is her job.

She said, “The president had an emotional and, I think, a symbolic moment.” What a sweet attempt to whitewash another crazy statement. But to be fair to Karine, the only thing she has in her “binder” is to blame everything on “systemic racism” or “global warming.” You step outside those bounds with a cannibal story and you lose your cover.
