No police officers died during the riots, and one who died the following day was found to have died of natural causes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA mob of insurrectionists stormed the Capitol, the very citadel of democracy,\u201d Biden told the newly minted graduates. \u201cImagine what you\u2019d be thinking today if you had heard this morning before you got here that a group of a thousand people broke down the doors of the parliament of Great Britain, killed two police officers, smashed and ransacked the office of members of the British Parliament or any other, what would you think? What would you think?\u201d<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">In a commencement speech at the Univ of Delaware, Joe Biden claimed that Trump supporters killed two police officers on Jan 6. Another flat out LIE by Biden &#038; he is never held responsible for continually lying to America. He continues to stir the pot &#038; create more divisiveness.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 LJ \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8 Wants to Save America (@beyouonlybetter) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/beyouonlybetter\/status\/1530877878006685697?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 29, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Immediately after U.S. Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick died on January 7, the department claimed he had been \u201cinjured while physically engaging with protesters\u201d and \u201cwas taken to a local hospital where he succumbed to his injuries.\u201d The New York Times reported that Sicknick had been <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2021\/01\/08\/us\/brian-sicknick-police-capitol-dies.html\">beaten with a fire extinguisher<\/a>, another claim that has since been debunked. The Washington, DC,\u00a0Office of the Chief Medical Examiner told the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/debunked-claims-officer-sicknick-died-capitol-riot-injuries-reemerge-day-one-hearing\">Washington Examiner<\/a> in April that Sicknick\u2019s death was \u201cnatural\u201d and caused by two strokes.<\/p>\n<p>Two other police officers,\u00a0Metropolitan Police Officer <a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/local\/public-safety\/police-officer-suicides-capitol-riot\/2021\/02\/11\/94804ee2-665c-11eb-886d-5264d4ceb46d_story.html\">Jeffrey Smith<\/a> and Capitol Police Officer <a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/local\/public-safety\/liebengood-capitol-police-death\/2021\/01\/10\/3a495b84-5357-11eb-a08b-f1381ef3d207_story.html\">Howard Liebengood,<\/a>\u00a0killed themselves following the attacks. The only people involved in the riots who died on January 6 were Air Force veteran and Trump supporter Ashli Babbitt, who was shot in the neck by Capitol Police Lt. Michael Byrd, who was cleared of wrongdoing; two protesters who suffered fatal heart attacks, and another who died of a suspected drug overdose.<\/p>\n<p>Biden claimed in a speech in Wisconsin in March that rioters killed five police officers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLook, how would you feel if you saw crowds storm and break down the doors of the British Parliament, kill five cops, injure 145 \u2014 or the German Bundestag, or the Italian Parliament?\u201d he said. \u201cI think you\u2019d wonder.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, that\u2019s what the rest of the world saw. It\u2019s not who we are. And now, we\u2019re proving, under pressure, that we are not that country. We\u2019re united.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Democrats on the House January 6 Commission have also repeated the claim that rioters killed police officers. Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson (D-Mississippi) said in his <a class=\"link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.c-span.org\/video\/?513434-1\/capitol-dc-police-testify-january-6-attack&#038;live\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-ylk=\"slk:opening remarks\" data-rapid_p=\"7\" data-v9y=\"1\">opening remarks<\/a>\u00a0on the first day of hearings last July that \u201cseven people lost their lives\u201d in the riot. The number would appear to include Sicknick, Babbitt, the officers who committed suicide, the protesters who suffered fatal heart attacks, and the one who died of a suspected drug overdose.<\/p>\n<p>On Friday, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/bidens-football-fib-roger-staubach-blocked-his-path-at-navy\">Biden told another whopper<\/a> while addressing graduates of the U.S. Naval Academy. He claimed he\u2019d been accepted to the venerable institution in 1965 but opted for the University of Delaware because future NFL Hall of Fame quarterback Roger Staubach blocked his path to gridiron glory. In fact, by 1965, Biden had already graduated from college, and while he was at Delaware, he never played varsity football despite later claiming he did.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Joe Biden falsely claimed that January 6 rioters at the U.S. Capitol \u201ckilled two police officers\u201d while giving the commencement address at his alma mater Saturday.
