BALTIMORE, MARYLAND: President Joe Biden faced people’s wrath online after he laughed while mentioning the 2020 deaths of two young men to fentanyl overdoses. The apparent incident reportedly happened Wednesday night, March 1, during the House Democratic Caucus Issues Conference in Baltimore, Maryland.

The commander-in-chief was reportedly addressing the allegations brought up by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-GA, against the current administration. Greene, at a House hearing on the southern border crisis on Tuesday, February 28, accused the Biden government of lacking to take a stern step to ban the inflow of illegal drugs into the US territory.

‘It’s failing our children and our young people’

The 48-year-old politician reportedly said, “This government has failed you, and it's failing American families, and it's failing, most of all, it's failing our children and our young people.” She also took to Twitter while referring to Rebecca Kiessling, who lost her two sons — Caleb, 20, and 18-year-old Kyler — in July 2020 after they consumed pills thinking them to be Percocet, but they were fentanyl.

Greene posted online, “Listen to this mother, who lost two children to fentanyl poisoning, tell the truth about both of her son’s murders because of the Biden administration's refusal to secure our border and stop the Cartel’s from murdering Americans every day by Chinese fentanyl.”



 

‘Isn’t she amazing?’

But Biden did not hold back and fired back at her on Wednesday, as he reportedly remarked, “Isn’t she amazing? (Laughter.) Oof. (Laughter.)” He then went on to say, “I was the reason — she was — she was very specific. I shouldn’t digress, probably. She — (laughter) — I’ve read she was very specific recently, saying that a mom — a poor mother who lost two kids to fentanyl, that — that I killed her sons. Well, the interesting thing is that the fentanyl they took came during the last administration. (Laughs.)”

The leader added, “Look, folks — anyway, I don’t want to get started. Look, so what we did in the past two years — whenever possible, we should work on both sides of the aisle and get as much done as we can. We got to bring the country back together again.”

‘That’s just disgusting'

Now because of his laughs and smirks, Biden has attracted a lot of negative comments online with Steve Helms tweeting, “What a POS. There’s nothing to laugh about in any part of that statement. And if you voted for him … well Nevermind…. You already know.” A critic wrote, “That’s just disgusting.” while another critic shared, “I’m embarrassed for our country and ache for the mother, her loss and the total disrespect this President just showed her.”

The fourth one said, “When the brain has a hard time processing something, one potential response is a chuckle. Even if the context is horrible. When nervous about something, that can also elicit a chuckle. The clip needs more context after the chuckle to know if malicious.” “The Left is falling apart. They’ve been fully exposed. Get your popcorn ready,” the fifth one stated.



 



 



 

A tweet read, “This is the lowest thing I have ever seen a politician do. Shameful.” Another tweet added, “Biden is done dementia getting worse and just odd and wrong things like this coming out over and over .”
