President Joe Biden used the term “illegal” to reference the border crossing migrant who murdered a 22-year-old young girl in Georgia and the Democrats seem to be more upset about what Joe Biden called the man than they are about the actual murder itself!

You may have heard the victim’s name by now, Laken Riley, but until his State of the Union Address, Joe Biden seemed to all too happy to ignore the tragedy altogether.

When Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene pressured Biden into acknowledging that Riley had been murdered by one of the many illegal aliens he’s brought into the country, Joe finally did… sort of.

While staring at a pin with Riley’s name that Greene had handed to him earlier in the night, Joe completely botched the Georgia student’s name.

“Lincoln Riley!” Biden said. “An innocent young woman who was killed by an illegal. That’s right. But how many of the thousands of people being killed by illegals? To her parents, I say, my heart goes out to you having lost children myself. I understand.”

Never mind the fact that this “apology” didn’t even make sense and was just flat-out disrespectful to Riley’s family, there was something else in it that seemed to trigger the Democrats.

With the Dems working overtime to condition Americans into believing that the millions of illegal immigrants crossing the border have a “right” to U.S. citizenship, these leftists were LIVID that Joe would undo their hard work by calling the violent murderer an illegal.

An upset Nancy Pelosi said to CNN that Biden made a mistake and should have referred to the murderer as “undocumented” instead of “illegal.”

Other liberal reps. joined in on this “outrage.”

“As a proud immigrant, I’m extremely disappointed to hear President Biden use the word ‘illegal,’” Rep. Chuy Garcia said.

“Disappointed that @POTUS would use such dehumanizing right wing rhetoric to speak about immigrants tonight. No human being is illegal,” Rep. Delia Ramirez said.

“Let me be clear: No human being is illegal,” Rep. Ilhan Omar added.

Rep. Pramila Jayapal said that she was “disappointed” in Biden’s choice of words and wished that he had never engaged with Rep. Greene over the matter.

However it’s worth nothing that NOT A SINGLE one of these Democrats expressed anything even remotely close to this kind of outrage when Riley was murdered.

They’re more upset about Joe Biden using an accurate term like “Illegal” to describe this murdering criminal than they are about the fact that he murdered an innocent American citizen.

Beyond that even, they’re trying to protect the illegal by insisting that he not be “dehumanized” – even after he brutally murdered Laken Riley.

This might be the most clear-cut example we’ve seen yet of how twisted the Democrats’ priorities are. They would rather protect illegal aliens from having “mean words” spoken about them than to protect American citizens from being attacked and murdered by those very aliens.
