President Joe Biden appeared confused wile attending the Tribal Nations Summit as he blankly looked on while wearing a blanket during a photo op.
“I think they want us to look over there,” Interior Secretary Deb Haaland told Biden, who was looking the wrong way.
Biden followed instructions and turned to his right, offering a bemused smile. “I could’ve used that blanket when I was lighting that Christmas tree,” Biden said.
Biden continued: “I don’t want people forgetting 10, 20, 30, 50 years from now, pretending it didn’t happen,” referring to the government effort to Westernize Native Americans.
“The children sent to the repurposed Carlisle, Pa., Army barracks were “stolen from their families, their tribes and their homelands,” Biden said.
“It was wrong,” he declared.
“We don’t erase history. We acknowledge it, we learn from it and we remember so we never repeat it again,” Biden added. “We remember so we can heal. That’s the purpose of memory.”
The news came after a media event on Sunday where Biden appeared to lose track of what he was talking about.
“What does the U.S. know about where Austin Tice (an American freelance journalist kidnapped in Syria in 2012) might be, and if he’s safe?” Biden was asked.
“We believe he’s alive. We think we can get him back, but we have no direct evidence of that yet,” Biden said. “And Assad has to be held accountable.”
Shortly after the exchange, Biden was asked, “Have you directed an operation to go get him, Mr. President?”
“Get who?” Biden replied confused.
During Biden’s recent trip to Africa, he appeared to nod off during a speech.
At least there’s only one more month of this.
