Biden called teen killed by illegal suspect the wrong name before blaming Trump and Republicans for her death
GOP Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene handed Sleepy Joe Biden a pin reading, “Say Her Name – Laken Riley,” as he made his way to the podium to make his State of the Union address on Thursday night.
Greene filmed as she handed Biden the pin and told him, “Say her name, Mr. President.”
“I know how to say the name,” Biden answered before eventually calling Laken “Lincoln” during his speech.
Joe Biden has no excuse.
I handed him a pin to remember Laken Riley.

When MTG shouted out, “Say Laken Riley!” during Biden’s speech, he stopped, grabbed the pin and said, “Lincoln Riley. An innocent young woman who was killed by an illegal. That’s right! But, how many thousands of people being killed by illegals? To her parents, I say my heart goes out to you having lost children myself, I understand.”
They are melting down because I forced Biden to go off script and he finally told the truth and admitted Laken Riley was murdered by an ILLEGAL!!!
Yes that’s right Joe.
ILLEGAL ALIEN!!!! https://t.co/auwxadMcD1 pic.twitter.com/TNH9aHcHJr

“He finally tried to say her name, but couldn’t even say it correctly. It’s an absolute disgrace,” Greene wrote.
Joe Biden’s policies killed Laken Riley.

MTG claimed on X she also offered DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas a Laken Riley pin, but that he refused to accept her offer.
I just offered Secretary Mayorkas this pin.
He refused to say her name and refused to take the pin. pic.twitter.com/N9XyIeI2Ah

Riley was brutally murdered while jogging on her Georgia college campus, and the lead suspect being charged in the killing is an illegal alien from Venezuela.
The impromptu remark is the first time Biden has addressed the tragic death, and he used it to blame the GOP for not voting “yes” on the BS Democrat border bill that would allow more illegals into the country as well as send $60 billion to Ukraine and Israel.
