President Joe Biden messed up the name of Laken Riley, a nursing student allegedly murdered by an illegal immigrant.
During his State of the Union address, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) shouted, “Laken Riley… say her name!”
Biden picked up a pin in honor of Riley but then mispronounced her name, saying, “Lincoln Riley, an innocent young woman who was killed by an illegal.”
“That’s right… but how many thousands of people are being killed by illegals?” he asked.
