On the 80th anniversary of D-Day, President Joe Biden was spotted awkwardly looking for a seat as other officials remained standing during a D-Day commemoration ceremony in France on Thursday.
They covered a real story of the tottering, old President and Presidential candidate looking for a chair that didn’t exist on the stage and looking about raedy to fall over.
It’s news.
The guy is 81 years old.
More mainstream sources are coverign this - like the Journal. ^^
Critics of Joe Biden are claiming a video shows him trying to sit down when there was no chair behind him during a ceremony commemorating the anniversary of D-Day. But the clip shared online is cut short to omit ensuing footage that proves there was a seat beneath the US president.
The moment in question came shortly before US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin spoke at an event commemorating the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings, when tens of thousands of Allied troops stormed the beaches of Normandy in northern France to fight Nazi Germany in what became a turning point in World War II.
Full livestream footage of the ceremony from The Times, a British newspaper, shows Biden started to sit as the music stopped, then paused to wait for Austin’s introduction (archived here).
He fully sat down as Austin’s name was called, along with the first lady and French president. The clip shared online is edited to leave out the part where Biden eventually took his seat.
I know what you mean but this was a website that immediately linked to the raw footage of Biden looking questionable at the commemoration of D-Day ceremony, and so it’s relevant.
I am trying to de-stigmatize bad news sources - not because they always deserve it, but because mainstream news is very unreliable on very important topics, like Gaza.
Fair points. But posting a massive misinformation spreader is not helping anything. In fact, it delegitimizes the concern making it harder for folks to pay attention to the important point that both candidates are way too old. We can do better.
Who posts OANN like it’s legitimate news lmao

Should have just posted the Gimlet link, that’s reasonable. OAN is impossible to take seriously.
