I get it, I get it. President Joe Biden hilariously misspeaking isn’t news. That would be like if, every morning, you hopped on this (brand new, beautiful!) website to see an article titled, “The Sun Didn’t Explode Yesterday.”
But, hell, they’re hilarious every time, so I’m gonna keep on writing about them.
The latest in Biden gaffes came when Joe was reading from a teleprompter about the important work being done by Asian-American civil rights activists, including Japanese-American Karen Narasaki. Only that’s not what he called her.
You can’t even make this stuff up.

Biden just called an Asian rights activist “Karen Nagasaki” instead of Narasaki.

I’m freaking DEAD, you guys. He didn’t even correct himself! He has no idea what he said! And he was READING! from a TELEPROMPTER!!
As if that wasn’t bad enough, Narasaki’s parents were interred in Japanese prison camps– I mean, ethnically defined family summer fun camps (they were started by a Democrat, after all) during World War II, so there’s another heap of salt to rub into that 80 year old wound.
Good lord. This is what “dignity back in the White House” looks like?
