"Controversies Surrounding Biden's State of the Union Address"

Laken Riley's mother criticized President Biden for fumbling her daughter's name during the State of the Union speech, calling him "pathetic" and slamming his immigration policies. Biden mistakenly referred to the murdered nursing student as "Lincoln Riley" and labeled her killer as an "illegal," despite the suspect being on parole. The family blames the open borders for allowing criminals into the country and declined an invitation to the State of the Union. Biden's vocabulary and immigration policies have drawn criticism from Riley's family and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
