White House Deflects When Confronted About Biden's False 9/11 Claims

White House reporter Jeff Mordock called out President Biden for frequently embellishing facts and making false claims, including about visiting Ground Zero the day after 9/11.
National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby evaded the question about Biden's misstatements and instead highlighted his recent Alaska trip.
Biden falsely claimed he was at Ground Zero the day after the attacks, when he actually visited about a week later.
Mordock pressed Kirby on why Biden keeps "saying things that happened didn't" and making debunked claims.
Kirby did not directly address Biden's false statements and instead said the president is focused on preventing future attacks.
