During a debate, President Joe Biden recently claimed that the Border Patrolmen had endorsed him for president. However, this claim has been debunked as false. An official from the National Border Patrol Council clarified that the union had not endorsed Biden and made it clear that they would “never” endorse him.
In reality, the Border Patrol Council endorsed Trump in the 2020 presidential election, not Biden. This fact was reiterated on social media immediately after Biden’s statement, underscoring that the union’s support lies with Trump, not the current president.

This situation highlights the importance of fact-checking and verifying statements made by politicians, even when they are made in a public debate. In this case, President Biden’s claim about the Border Patrolmen endorsing him turned out to be erroneous, as confirmed by the union's official statement.
As conservative Americans, it’s essential to stay informed about the accurate endorsements and affiliations of political figures, especially in the lead-up to crucial elections. This incident serves as a reminder to question and verify claims made by politicians to ensure transparency and truthfulness in public discourse.
