President Joe Biden visits Amtrak maintenance facility in Bear, Delaware

President Joe Biden recently condemned former President Donald Trump and US Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene for spreading false information regarding the response efforts to hurricanes Milton and Helene. Biden expressed his frustration with the 'reckless and irresponsible' promotion of disinformation and outright lies that have been circulating, undermining the confidence of the people in Florida and the ongoing rescue and recovery work.

Biden specifically called out Trump for spreading misinformation, including false claims that federal assistance was capped at $750, allegations of property seizures in the storm's path, and accusations of FEMA funds being diverted to house migrants. The president labeled these lies as un-American and emphasized that there is no place for such misinformation.
