President Joe Biden on Saturday expressed regret for referring to Laken Riley’s alleged murderer as “an illegal.”
Liberals criticized Biden’s use of the term when describing the 22-year-old nursing student’s alleged murderer Jose Antonio Ibarra during his State of the Union address Thursday after Republicans demanded the president say Riley’s name during his speech. Biden told MSNBC’s Jonathan Capehart that he should have used the term “undocumented” instead.
