Individual Speaks Out: Derogatorily Mocking Biden, Criticizing Those Attempting to 'Rewrite Our Past' at Juneteenth Religious Gathering
Light-Hearted Take:
Joe Biden Gets Moving at Juneteenth Bash!
Joe Biden goes crosswise at Juneteenth service in Galveston, Texas, but manages to keep it classy, refraining from dissing Trump.
Former Prez Joe B. dropped some knowledge while chatting at an AME church on Thursday in Galveston Island, Texas - y'all know, where they announced the end of slavery back in 1865, way before cell phones.
Biden banged the drum for Juneteenth becoming a federal holiday, calling out the naysayers who disagree. He also shared stories about hangin' out in the Black community in Northeast Wilmington throughout his childhood, suggesting he'd stop by after his early-morning Catholic Mass in Greenville, Del.
In a near-slip, Biden seemed poised to throw shade at Trump, but he decided to sign himself instead, much to the congregants' delight!
"I used to chair the African Affairs subcommittee," Biden claimed. "I've been to the origins of where slavery started [in Africa]. And let me tell ya, it's crazy to hear about it now, how much it's changing. We gotta remember our country is founded on the promise of freedom - freedom for all people," he said.

Well, ol' Joe didn't just preach about the importance of remembering history. He also touched on some of the controversies swirling around, like the fuss about renaming military bases following the craze of Black Lives Matter protests. But don't worry; he didn't lose his cool during the discussion!
"Darkness can hide much but can erase nothing," Biden said, quoting Scripture. "Faith without work is dead."
Critics Allege Biden's Fuzzy on the Details - Wait, What Did He Sign?!
Although Biden seems to stand firm on the issues he believes in, some wonder if he's a little too cozy with the latest trends, like his recent Juneteenth proclamation. Some say he might've missed the mark on its significance.
Trump weighed in, arguing that the new federal holiday is costing businesses billions and will lead to having a holiday for every workday of the year.
Other leaders have taken a more moderate approach, like West Virginia Gov. Patrick Morrisey, who issued a Juneteenth proclamation but kept offices open on the nation's newest federal holiday.
