Joe and Jill Biden on Wednesday hosted the Council of Chief State School Officers’ 2022 National and State Teachers of the Year in the East Room of the White House.
As usual, Joe Biden’s speech was full of gaffes as he struggled to read his teleprompter.
At one point Biden called his Secretary of Education, Miguel Cardona, “Senator Cardona.”
Then Biden told the room of teachers that the children they are teaching are “not somebody else’s children.”
Biden just blurted it out and said the quiet part out loud.
“They’re not somebody else’s children. They’re yours when you’re in the classroom,” Biden said.

On Wednesday, Biden gave some remarks during the White House event to honor the 2022 National and State Teachers of the Year. But apparently, he spoke at a point when he said he wasn’t “supposed to.”

Then he said he was going off-script, “My staff’s going, ‘why aren’t you giving the speech we wrote?’”

Biden told the assembled teachers that he had to “really listen to [them], as I know Senator Cardona has been doing.”
Miguel Cardona is his Secretary of Education; Biden just forgot what the title of his own cabinet secretary is. Cardona was never a senator.

Then finally, there was this golden moment of oratory. Oh, my. You can see his brain freeze right in the middle of the sentence.
