Representative John Rose (R-TN) slammed President Joe Biden for gaffing the name of the young nursing student who was allegedly killed by an illegal immigrant.
During the State of the Union Thursday, Biden referred to Laken Riley as “Lincoln Riley.”
“This showed the President’s inability to get off script,” Rep. Rose told KWAM Friday. “He still doesn’t know her name and that’s shameful.”Rep. Rose doubled down on his criticism of Biden’s wide-open border policy.President Biden's policies created the chaos at the Southern Border and around the world.
It's a shame he's attempting to blame Republicans for his disastrous decisions.

“The invasion at the Souther border is not some sort of failure of policy… it is the policy of this administration to have an open border and to allow these folks to come into country,” the Republican lawmaker said. “The policy is working magnificently if that’s what you want to achieve.”
