Grieving Mother Calls Joe Biden ‘Despicable’: “How dare you”
A grieving Michigan mom whose two sons died of fentanyl overdoses slammed President Joe Biden calling his actions “despicable” after he laughed off the false claim that his administration was to blame for the deaths.
Rebecca Kiessling sons Caleb, 20, and Kyler, 18, died in July 2020 after taking fentanyl-laced Percocet pills. Biden used her tragic story to mock GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s suggestion That he was responsible for the deaths.
Biden said: “Isn’t Marjorie Taylor Greene amazing? I should digress, probably, I’ve read, she, she was very specific recently, saying that a mom, a poor mother who lost two kids to fentanyl, that, that I killed her sons. Well, the interesting thing is that fentanyl they took came during the last administration,” Biden added while laughing.
Kiessling said:
“This is how you speak about the death of my sons? Because a congresswoman misspoke?
“You mock the loss of my sons?
“How dare you.
“What is the matter with you?
“Almost every Democrat on the committee offered condolences, they at least had the decency to do that. “You can’t even do that?
“You have to mock my pain?
“That represents tens of thousands of US citizens who died under your watch, an increase in tens of thousands.
“That represents double that number of the parents who are suffering.
“You’re going to keep laughing?
“About those who did die under your watch?
“Do we have to bring them in so you can look them in the eyes and laugh,” she said.
