We regret to inform you that Joe Biden is once again spewing out completely made-up nonsense in an effort to rewrite history and shamelessly glorify one of their favorite so-called “oppressed” groups: Muslims. According to Joe Biden, Muslim culture has supposedly been inextricably intertwined in America since the very start of this great nation.
Huh?
Here’s what Joe said in his ridiculous tweet:
Muslim culture has been woven throughout American culture from the very start.
We must always stand against anti-Muslim hate. And stand up for the rights and dignity of all people.
It's essential to who we are: a nation founded on the idea of freedom and justice for all.
— President Biden (@POTUS) May 2, 2023
Honestly, this silly narrative shouldn’t come as a shock to anyone, after all, Barack Obama also claimed that Muslims built the very fabric of our nation and the core of our democracy, as Reuter’s fact checkers pointed out back in 2020.
During his address, Obama said, “In the United States, Eid also reminds us of the many achievements and contributions of Muslim Americans to building the very fabric of our nation and strengthening the core of our democracy.”
And who can forget back in 2017, when CNN incorrectly and hilariously declared that Islam was part of America’s founding.
The folks at Jihad Watch set CNN straight:
While Muslims were present at America’s founding, Islam — as a coherent, self-conscious religious and political civilization — was not. Had it been present, one would have expected the Founding Fathers to be more aware of it, and one would have expected to see an American version of the faith emerge, one more comfortable with ideas of tolerance and individual liberty, much as different reformist versions of Judaism flourished in the United States.
To the extent that Islam was a part of early American history, it was a negative force, an external enemy. The predations of the Barbary pirates prompted the U.S. to build a world-class navy and deploy the fledgling Marines. As Brian Kilmeade and Don Yaeger recall in Thomas Jefferson and the Tripoli Pirates: The Forgotten War That Changed American History, Jefferson was shocked when, at a meeting in London with the Tripolitan ambassador and John Adams in 1786, the Muslim envoy declared that American Christians were fair game for piracy: “… all nations which had not acknowledged the Prophet were sinners, whom it was the right and duty of faithful persons to plunder and enslave.”
Interesting how CNN breezed right over how evil Muslim slave traders were ripping innocent people away from their families and selling them like cattle. But it’s no surprise, really. The left often manipulates historical facts to fit their current political narrative.
Journalist Steve Sailer reminds us of the time Joe Biden absurdly declared that a black man invented the light bulb, not a white guy named Thomas Edison.
During a Thursday meeting with Kenosha, Wis., community leaders, Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden said that a Black man, rather than Thomas Edison, invented the light bulb.
“People fear that which is different. We’ve got to, for example, why in God’s name don’t we teach history in history classes? A Black man invented the light bulb, not a White guy named Edison,” Biden said. “There’s so much — did anybody know before what recently happened that Black Wall Street in Oklahoma was burned to the ground. Anybody know these things? Because we don’t teach them. We’ve got to give people facts.”
Of course, as always, Joe Biden was wrong. It was Edison who first invented the light bulb and a filament that could last 1,200 hours. Biden is equally wrong when he claims that “Muslim culture” has been woven throughout American culture from the beginning.
My favorite Bidenism remains, "A black man invented the light bulb, not a white guy named Tom Edison." But this one is up there: https://t.co/jR726pGzhR

Perhaps Biden was referring to the First Barbary War, which took place in 1805 and led to the formation of the United States Marines. During that conflict, American forces battled against vicious Muslim pirates and slave-traders along the shores of Tripoli, and actually had to wear leather around their necks to avoid being beheaded by the bloodthirsty Muslims.
That’s not exactly a cozy, fire-side story about the beautiful bond between Muslim and American culture, but unfortunately for Joe, it’s the truth.
