Karine Jean-Pierre Says Biden “Took Off His Mask…To Deliver Incredibly Powerful Remarks”
Jean-Pierre: It “Was Planned” For Biden To Abruptly Leave Medal Of Honor Ceremony Before It Was Over
On 9/6/2023, KJP said, “The president took off his mask, as I said he would, to deliver incredibly powerful remarks about this captain, Capt. Taylor, and what he did in service to our nation,” Jean-Pierre said Wednesday. “And for a brief time afterwards, he also didn’t have his mask on.”
Social media users slammed Biden after it appeared he “bolted out of the room” and disrespected Taylor, who had just received the nation’s highest military honor. But the White House said Biden’s rapid exit was planned. “He left as planned, as it was planned,” Jean-Pierre told reporters. “He left when there was a pause in the program in order to minimize his close contact with attendees who are about to participate in a reception.” Jean-Pierre emphasized that Biden’s mask mishap and departure from the ceremony needed to be placed into “context.”
“We’ve got to put this all in context,” she said. “We planned for the president to leave when there was a pause in the program so that it would minimize him being in the room. He did just that. And I also would want to add that before the event started, the president spent a good amount of time with the captain, Capt. Taylor and his family. And everybody was masked because he wanted to spend that quality, important time.”
“That is not for me to speak to, it truly isn’t,” she said. “That is something the CDC decides on. They are the experts.”
On 9/6/2023, Joe Biden delivered remarks on the International Longshore and Warehouse Union (ILWU) and the Pacific Maritime Association (PMA) finalizing a new contract covering America’s West Coast ports. This is Joe Biden’s only public event for the day according to his schedule. Biden shuffled into the State Dining room without his mask on and went off-script as he addressed, “Hello everybody, let me explain to the press, I’ve been tested again today. I am clear across the board,” Biden said. “But they keep telling me…I gotta keep wearing [a mask], but don’t tell them I didn’t have it on when I walked in,” Biden said. Joe Biden spoke for 10 minutes before bolting from the podium without answering any questions.
On 9/5/2023, Biden awarded the Medal of Honor to helicopter pilot Captain Larry L. Taylor, United States Army, for conspicuous gallantry. Larry L. Taylor received the highest honor for scooping up four of his fellow soldiers during a fierce firefight in Vietnam on June 18, 1968. Out of nowhere, Joe Biden abruptly walked out of the Medal of Honor ceremony, even before the closing benediction. Medal of Honor recipient Larry Taylor wiped a tear from his face and looked around confused as Joe Biden shuffled away.
