Birthday: Rep. Adam Scanlon
Quote of the Day
“During an interview with a Philly radio station, Biden said: “I’m proud to be, as I said, the first vice president, first Black woman, to serve with a Black president.” During the same appearance, while speaking about shattering discrimination against Catholics, Biden claimed to be “the first president [who] got elected statewide in the state of Delaware.” He apparently meant to say he was the first Catholic to be elected statewide in the Blue Hen State.”
Yesterday, Biden appeared to stumble, stutter and sometimes cut himself off mid-sentence in two radio interviews and remarks at the White House.
