Marjorie Taylor Greene, the outspoken Republican Congresswoman, has recently launched a scathing critique against President Biden in the wake of a significant gaffe during his State of the Union address. Biden’s misidentification of a slain nursing student as ‘Lincoln Riley,’ a football coach, has sparked outrage and condemnation from Greene and others, reigniting debates about the president’s fitness for office.
Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Condemnation:
Greene wasted no time in condemning Biden’s gaffe, taking to social media platforms to denounce the president as ‘unfit’ for his role. She accused Biden of disrespecting Furr’s memory and demonstrating a lack of empathy by confusing her identity with that of a football coach. Greene’s remarks underscore the deepening political divisions and heightened scrutiny surrounding the Biden administration.

Biden Mistakenly References ‘Lincoln Riley’ Instead of Laken Riley During Immigration Discussion, Drawing Criticism
During his speech, Biden held up the pin and called out Riley by name while discussing immigration and the bipartisan border bill that failed earlier this year. However, he appeared to mispronounce her name as ‘Lincoln Riley’, saying, “Lincoln Riley, an innocent young woman was killed by an illegal person. Right. But how many of the thousands are being killed by illegals.”
Greene expressed his displeasure, tweeting during the State of the Union, “Totally disrespectful. Joe Biden misinterpreted Laken Riley’s beautiful name. Even when he tried to say it, he also impossible. Completely unfit to be President.”
