It s another day and another fish tale from Joe Biden.

This time, the president falsely claimed in a speech to have personally witnessed the Pittsburgh bridge collapse last January.

He spun his yarn trying to impress his audience; however, he was caught flat-footed by critics.

A lot of you were with me when I was in Pittsburgh, Biden told a crowd gathered at a Milwaukee wind turbine manufacturing plant to hear him speak. By the way, Pittsburgh is a city of bridges more bridges in Pittsburgh than any other city in America.

He went on to claim, I watched that bridge collapse , adding, I got there and saw it collapse with over 200 feet off the ground going over a valley. It collapsed. Thank God school was out during the pandemic.

The 477-foot-long bridge collapsed hours before his speech. The president was not anywhere near the site.

Some on X, formerly known as Twitter, suggested that Biden had lost touch with reality.

Joe Biden watched a bridge collapse in Pittsburgh. He s not lying. Lying requires understanding reality and saying something contrary. Sadly, our president lacks a grasp on reality. His head believes he saw it collapse, one user wrote.

Others accused the president of being an unabashed liar.

Another post opi n ed , Prolific liar or dementia? Joe Biden tells a lie each day. Today: Biden claims he witnessed a Pittsburgh bridge collapse.

Joe Biden Tall Tale Not Isolated Incident

Joe Biden has a long history of tall tales.

Biden claims he watched bridge collapse in Pittsburgh

Although he hasn t talked about his rides with Paul Bunyan or Pecos Bill, he has come close.

In 2021, Biden was corrected by the executive director of Pittsburgh s Tree of Life Synagogue for claiming he had visited it.

The synagogue was the site of the horrific 2018 massacre of 11 people by a Neo-Nazi.

I used to think that hate could be defeated, it could be wiped out. But I learned a long time ago, it can t. It only hides. It hides. It hides under the rocks. And given any oxygen at all, it comes out. It s a minority view, but it comes out, and it comes out raging. And it s been given too much oxygen in the last four, five, seven, 10 years, and it has seen itself, whether it was I remember spending time at the you know, going to the you know, the Tree of Life Synagogue, speaking with the just , Biden said ; he didn t finish the sentence, instead continuing, It just is amazing these things are happening happening in America.

Tree of Life Executive Director Barb Feige told The New York Post that Biden had never been to the synagogue even before he became president.

Biden s CornPop Tale

Biden s most infamous Pecos Bill tale probably was his claim in 2019 to have confronted a black gang leader in Wilmington, Del., in 1962 while he was a lifeguard.

CornPop was a bad dude and he ran a bunch of bad boys, he said while mimicking a black American accent. I walked out with the chain. I walked up to my car, Biden said. I said: First of all when I tell you to get off the board, you get off the board, and I ll kick you out again. But I shouldn t have called you Esther Williams, I apologize.

But I don t know if that apology is going to work He said OK, closed the straight razor and my heart began to beat again.

His tale immediately raised skepticism and many in the media refused to accept it as anything other than a fabrication.

Biden has always had a knack for making things up. It s not a senior thing.

He has been known as a liar as far as 1987.... [ More ]
