Biden roasted for joking: ‘I sold a lot of state secrets’

President Joe Biden is being slammed online for joking about selling state secrets as critics question his mental status and whether he was confessing to a crime.

“I sold a lot of state secrets and a lot of very important things that we shared,” Biden said at the start of a meeting with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi last week. “Now, all kidding aside — look, we’re teaming up to design and develop new technologies.”

The Republican National Committee on Monday tweeted a video of Biden’s remarks, cutting the video before the president clarified he was “kidding.”

Even though additional information was added to the RNC’s post by Twitter users, the video still generated online outrage from conservatives. 

“Joe Biden’s brain is going and he’s literally admitting his crimes out loud. Impeach Biden! It’s unreal and so insulting to America,” Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., tweeted.

“Well, honest or in a fog of confusion? Where are you, Democrats? Speak up because we never hear from you on this topic,” former Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, posted. 

“They impeached Trump over a phone call,” Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Fla., commented on the video, referring to how the House impeached then-President Donald Trump in 2019 in part due to comments he made on a phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

Biden made the joke as congressional Republicans are raising the alarm over allegations that Biden and his family were involved in a multi-million-dollar bribery scheme involving a Ukrainian businessman who reportedly tried to influence U.S. policy.
