Once again defying the Supreme Court, Joe Biden is trying to provide billions in student loan cancelations. It appears he is trying to buy votes from college-educated voters. But this latest scheme may be shot down in the courts.
Biden was on the campaign trail to brag about his latest gift to already tax-burdened working Americans.
He visited a college to win over progressive voters angry at him over Israel. But while speaking, he made a certain claim—one that fact-checkers debunked decades ago. Now, he is being given a painful title.
From Fox News:
Social media users called out President Biden for claiming to be the first in his family to go to college in a recent speech…Biden said, “I, like an awful lot of people in this audience, was the first in my family to go to college, and watch my dad struggle to help me get there.”
In an X post, Price shared a clip from a presidential speech two years prior in which Biden bragged that his grandfather played college football, a claim at odds with his recent bit about being the “first” to go to university…
Chaya Raichick, the woman behind the “Libs of TikTok” account, commented, “This dude is a pathological liar on top of being senile.”
Joe Biden just said in a speech in Wisconsin "I, like an awful lot of people in this audience, was the first in my family to go to college."
That is a lie.
One of the reasons we know it's a lie is because Biden has bragged several times in the past about how his grandfather… pic.twitter.com/1ppP90RDnD

Also, this was one of the lies that forced Biden out of his first presidential campaign back in the 1980s. Absolutely pathological. https://t.co/o4mBWoBe3I

Users online are calling Joe Biden a liar over claims that he was the first person in his family to go to college. Biden’s own words contradict this claim. Only two years ago, he gave a speech where he talked about his grandfather playing college football.
Others pointed out that Biden made this claim back in the 1980s. But he was found out over the lie—which contributed to his dropping out of the presidential race. Biden’s 1980s campaign for president was derailed after he was exposed for plagiarizing speeches.
It seems odd that, after nearly forty years, Biden is back making the same debunked claim. Joe has a reputation for bending the truth in his favor. Despite being outed by fact-checkers and the general public; he continues to say falsehoods. It seems he expects people to just believe whatever he says, true or not.
Key Takeaways:
- Biden was outed for a lie he told during a speech to college students.
- The Democrat claimed he was the first in his family to go to college.
- Biden had previously talked about how his grandfather played college football.
