Biden Claims He Got Arrested During the Civil Rights Movement

My latest in PJ Media:

Who knew that the man who pretends to be president of the United States had such an arrest record? Old Joe Biden has claimed that he was once arrested in South Africa while trying to visit Nelson Mandela, and on Tuesday, Biden revealed for the first time ever that he had been arrested during the civil rights movement. The way Joe is going, pretty soon he will have kidnapped the Lindbergh baby.

Biden made his latest claim of running afoul of the cops in a speech at Morehouse College and Clark Atlanta University, where he was trying to strike an inspirational tone about why it’s so important to allow for voter fraud on a grand scale. “This is the moment,” Biden said in the hectoring tone he adopts in moments of high emotion, “to decide to defend our elections, to defend our democracy.”

It’s a republic, Joe, not a democracy, but never mind. Practically every day now, Democrat leaders warn that “our democracy” is in imminent peril from the possibility that people will not vote for the candidates they approve of. The deep threat to “our democracy” is that Democrats will lose the House and Senate in 2022 and the presidency in 2024.

True to the practice of all Democrat leaders today, Biden framed the cynical effort to allow voting without ID, mail-in voting, and all manner of other invitations to fraud as a noble struggle for civil rights in the line of Dr. Martin Luther King. He continued: “And if you do that,” that is, fight against election integrity, “you will not be alone. That’s because the struggle to protect voting rights has never been borne by one group alone. We saw Freedom Riders of every race. Leaders of every faith marching arm in arm. And, yes, Democrats and Republicans in Congress of the United States and in the presidency.” Old Joe, what a uniter!

Biden then struck a stance of faux-humility. “I did not live the struggle of Douglass, Tubman, King, Lewis, Goodman, Chaney, and Schwerner, and countless others — known and unknown. I did not walk in the shoes of generations of students who walked these grounds.  But I walked other grounds.  Because I’m so damn old, I was there as well.” As the crowd laughed, Biden added: “You think I’m kidding, man. It seems like yesterday the first time I got arrested. Anyway —.” Biden broke off there as the crowd laughed some more, cheating us out of an account of how he and Corn Pop marched across the Edmund Pettis Bridge under heavy sniper fire.

There is more. Read the rest here.
