Biden's Ground Zero Claim Fact Checked; Jill Biden Speaks at Flight 93 Memorial
TL;DR
President Joe Biden falsely claimed that he was at Ground Zero the day after the 9/11 attacks, when in fact he visited the site nine days later. The White House provided evidence of his visit on September 20, 2001, as part of a bipartisan delegation from the Senate. This is not the first time Biden has made false claims about his past, as he has previously made inaccurate statements about witnessing a bridge collapse, his grandfather's death, a conversation with a deceased Amtrak conductor, and other events.
