President Joe Biden has apologized for accurately using the term "illegal" during Thursday night's State of the Union address during a tense exchange with Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene over the murder of Laken Riley - whose name Biden mispronounced before uttering the verboten word that clearly upset the left.

During the SOTU, Greene taunted Biden to say Riley's name - adding that she was killed "by an illegal."

"Lincoln. Lincoln Riley," Biden responded, mispronouncing Laken's name. "An innocent young woman who was killed by an illegal," Biden continued.

This sent the left into histrionics, with Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) firing the first shot - scolding Biden during an appearance on CNN.

Biden was then confronted outside of Air Force One over the comment, for which he reframed his words as as "Technically, not supposed to be here."

And so, Biden's handlers (or whoever) thought it would be a great idea to make the elderly sitting President apologize on national television - yet didn't think it important enough to apologize to Laken Riley's family for mispronouncing her name, or causing the border crisis that may have been directly responsible for her death.

"I shouldn't have used illegal, it's undocumented," Biden told MSNBC's Jonathan Capehart in Atlanta.
