Joe Biden has always been a prolific liar and plagiarist, but on Wednesday he took things to another level.
While attempting to disparage former President Donald Trump for ‘skipping out’ on a 2018 visit to a military cemetery outside Paris (when in fact the Navy made a ‘bad-weather‘ call), Biden claimed that his uncle, 2nd Lt. Ambrose J. “Bozey” Finnegan Jr., was shot down in World War II and eaten by cannibals.
“He was a hell of an athlete, they tell me, when he was a kid. He flew those single-engine planes as reconnaissance over war zones, and he got shot down in New Guinea. They never found the body because there used to be, there were a lot of cannibals, for real, in that part of New Guinea,” Biden said during a Wednesday stop in Pittsburgh – an account which appears in the official transcript of his remarks.
“They never recovered his body, but the government went back when I went down there and they checked and found some parts of the plane,” Biden continued.
Except that’s total bullshit of course
As Jonathan Turley points out, there was a survivor who gave a detailed account of how Finnegan and another man remained in the plane as it sank. What’s more, Bozey’s plane was not shot down – it was a Douglas A-20 Havoc with two Pratt & Whitney R-985 Wasp Junior 9-cylinder radial engines. The plane had mechanical problems when it crashed near New Guinea and simply sank into the ocean.
“On May 14, 1944, an A-20 havoc (serial number 42-86768), with a crew of three and one passenger, departed Momote Airfield, Los Negros Island, for a courier flight to Nadzab Airfield, New Guinea. For unknown reasons, this plane was forced to ditch in the ocean off the north coast of New Guinea. Both engines failed at low altitude, and the aircraft’s nose hit the water hard. Three men failed to emerge from the sinking wreck and were lost in the crash. One crew member survived and was rescued by a passing barge. An aerial search the next day found no trace of the missing aircraft or the lost crew members.”
D Day was June 6, 1944… and he says his uncles joined the military on D Day. Ambrose died on May 14, 1944.
Ambrose was not a pilot, & he was not shot down. He was a courier – a passenger on an A-20 bomber that ditched at sea with engine troubles.https://t.co/MwYZejvQXg

What’s more, Biden repeated it more than once! Watch:
Biden has a new story: Uncle Bosey got shot down in a plane and was possibly eaten by African cannibals. pic.twitter.com/9cSP29GSxx

OMFG. Biden just repeated the story that his Uncle Bosey was shot down and then likely eaten by cannibals during WWII.
This is the 2nd time he said this today. pic.twitter.com/PyLkeRiMoJ

So for those keeping track:
– Not shot down
– Not a single engine plane
– Not eaten by cannibals
All of which was has been in the public domain for decades. And not one reporter following him around pushed back on what could have been googled within seconds.
And according to AP – Biden was simply “off on details.”
Meanwhile, Biden has falsely claimed at least 13 times that his uncle Frank won the Purple Heart, and said that he (Biden) was picked twice to attend the Naval Academy, when no supporting evidence exists.
In 2021, Biden told Jewish leaders that he remembered “spending time at” and “going to” Pittsburgh’s Tree of Life synagogue in 2018 after 11 people were murdered in a mass shooting – which also never happened. The White House covered by later claiming he was thinking about a 2019 phone call with the synagogue’s rabbi.

How is the Babylon Bee going to keep up with this fool?
I think they’ll throw their hands up and admit defeat on this one…
I wonder if the cannibals threw up Biden’s uncle’s hands.
If they actually ate him, the cannibals were probably the ones, throwing up.
Biden is remembering that time he ate Hildabeast in the Senate committee room while two gay staffers buttfucked at the next conference table, and Billy got a blowjob in the oval office. Typical Democratic day.
Happenned to Nelson Rockefeller’s kid some 30 years later, so Joe could be right. Or he could just be making shit up as is his wont.
Rockefeller’s kid was right on the island with the cannibals. He wasn’t shot down and lost at sea. One could just as easily claim “My uncle went out for a pack of smokes and never came back. Must have been cannibals.”
Was that in Baltimore Jack?
He said it twice, or says his dad was eaten twice?
It’s one of those things where the leftovers in the pot are more tasty the next day.
It was dingoes, and they ate his baby too.
…the story CornPop told me was his uncle got shot down over Haiti after strafing the Nazi armadas when it canon balled Cuba or the Artic or something and that is when the Haitian cannibals ate him as a giant beef wellington
I knew Cornpop…he was a bad dude!
No joke
He says these types of things in public. Imagine what’s going on behind closed doors.
I bet the cannibals had a ball.
Or two.
Gotta to say at least one thing for Biden, he has a very fertile ass, he seems to be able to effortlessly pull creaive things from it at will or maybe that’s just the drugs?
an absolute, utter fool before his brain formally checked out and now just a lying clown assuming his tales are accepted as uttered.
when will his family be taken to court for the ‘elder abuse’ evident?
as an aside: just what is the ‘ability’ required for POTUS and VPOTUS given the antics of the demented clown in charge and the ignoramus waiting in the wings?
Apparently the only qualification at this point is nothing. All we get are super old dudes, whores, and people born in other countries
Obviously people like being lied to as people in Delaware reelected him time and time again over the decades. The bigger and bolder lies you make, the more credible you are to your constituents. Burger King doesn’t hold a candle to Joebama Binbiden when it comes to the “Whopper”.
People do like hearing tall tales. We had a guy that we worked with in the Panhandle that told tall tales like this and people would come around just to see what the latest one was. However, it just got old.
Got 81+ million votes there as well
The “biden” on show now ain’t the “biden” that was in congress before.
Soft as a grape.
Check the cunt and self-loathing white male democrat jackoffs behind the daughter rapist.
I despise them as much as I despise the pedophile.
Would someone please take this corpse to a tower of silence and let the buzzards feed well.
I don’t understand why so much coverage and attention is given to these irrelevant figureheads? Doesn’t TBP realize that they are irrelevant? Talking about Biden and Trump is a waste of time. They are just role playing.
Apparently you are not smart enough to figure out that its a Zero Hedge article and not a Burning Platform author.
Want to make TBP more ‘relevant’, then start producing some articles.
Many more public speeches like that and even the CCP will revoke his membership card…
Well, we know that dementia is consuming his brain.
Every time he says, “for real,” or “I’m not making this up.”, rest assured it isn’t, and he is. Disrespectful to those who were really shot down and possibly eaten.
Comments on the post are darkly humorous. Laughed at more than one.
Hmm, can I get me a cannibal cookbook here? Low and slow or high heat seared? Depends on the fat content of the cut I guess. But nothing onions and garlic couldn’t cover up. What a sick fucking bastard! Could make a lot of ass jerkey with some of those twerking fat behinds.
Its no laughing matter when ur pappy gets eat’n by cannibals’ years before you are born, maybe even more than once. The pain, the suffering, the indigestion and parasites from an improperly cooked buydem, them poor natives…
I dunno…The cooking shows on youtube often suggest brining before cooking. The salt helps to make the meat more juicy.
