These are just the mistakes and slurred words that they want to "correct" in a transcript.
They're leaving intact all of his false and racist claims. They're not correcting his lies- those were intentional.
But as far as Biden's errors: They'll admit nine of them.
In a recent address to the NAACP, President Biden's remarks were filled with gaffes, leading the White House to issue nine corrections to the official transcript.
Gaffe Highlights: Biden mistakenly referred to his vice presidency during the COVID-19 pandemic and made several misstatements, including confusing "pandemic" with "recession."
Transcript Corrections: The corrected transcript tried to clarify Biden's words, such as changing "NAAC" to "NAACP" and correcting figures like "$800,000 per year" savings under the ACA to a more plausible number.
Recent Trend: This incident continues a pattern of public speaking errors by Biden, noted more frequently as he ramps up public appearances.
Obamacare is saving you "$800,000 per year." Oh my. How did his dying brain not reject this as implausible? Why did his demented brain think that this was somehow a plausible fiction?
He just babbles like a very wrinkly infant.
During a speech to the NAACP in Michigan, President Joe Biden made multiple verbal slips, prompting the White House to correct the official transcript of the event nine times. Among the most notable mistakes, Biden said he was vice president during the COVID-19 pandemic, a significant chronological error since his vice presidency ended in January 2017, nearly three years before the pandemic began.
The White House corrections clarified that Biden meant the "recession" when referring to his time as vice president under Barack Obama, specifically the Great Recession which was a critical issue during the early years of his vice presidency. Other corrections included gross exaggerations like families saving "$800,000 per year" from the Affordable Care Act, and misstatements about his actions against corporate landlords and his mispronunciation of "inspiring" and "insurrectionists."
He cannot say most consonant clusters, like those found in "insurrectionists." So he slurs words like that into "ishereshunists" or, of course, "erectionists."
...
Despite these blunders, the White House has emphasized the substantive intentions behind Biden's words. Acting Deputy Press Secretary Sam Michel highlighted the administration's focus on reducing prescription drug costs, investing in Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), and protecting Medicare and Social Security as the core messages of Biden's speech.
Ignore the actual speech in Biden's speech. Look instead to the words written for him to slur by other people.
The White House has "corrected" the transcripts of Biden's slurred words 148 times in 2024 -- so far.
White House communications staff has had to correct President Joe Biden's public remarks at least 148 times since the beginning of 2024, a review of official White House transcripts shows.
The White House releases an official transcript anytime the president gives a speech or takes questions. Communications staff frequently correct, add to or alter Biden's official remarks in order to either bring them into compliance with official White House policy or, in some cases, reality, a Daily Caller analysis showed. In several cases, official statements had to be changed to convey the exact opposite of what Biden actually said.
Through 118 statements, speeches and chats with reporters spanning from Jan. 1 to April 24, the White House has officially updated its transcript with corrections to what the president said out loud at least 148 times.
Some of the modifications include corrections to names, dates and titles of organizations. Others change verbs and modify the meaning of the president's statement entirely. Words that the president didn't say, but should've, according to the White House staff, have also been added to the transcripts.
"It was then, through no -- through my American Rescue Plan -- which every American [Republican] voted against, I might add -- we made the largest investment in public safety ever," the White House transcript of Biden's March State of the Union address read.
"I've always believed we've [they've] got it all wrong. America is rising. And we have the best economy in the world, which we do," the White House transcript of Biden's April 17 remarks on his new initiatives to protect U.S. steel in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, read.
"We must be honest: The threat to democracy must be defended [defeated]," another State of the Union excerpt reads.
In at least one case, the White House put out a transcript that falsely portrayed what Biden said out loud.
At an event last week, Biden seemingly read the word "pause" off of his teleprompter, but the original White House transcript of the president's remarks did not include the word "pause" -- it said "(inaudible)." An updated version of the transcript now includes the president's "pause" as well as the "(inaudible)."
"Folks, imagine what we could do next," Biden said, touting his economic policies throughout his administration.
"Four more years ... Pause," he continued before the crowd began to take the cue and chant.
...
In other instances, Biden relayed false information or data which the White House transcript later corrected.
"We vaccinated the vast bulk of America. We got through that pandemic with less than 200 million -- with less than 2 million people being vaccinated when I came to office. Today, 720 [270] million Americans have gotten COVID vaccine," the White House transcript reads from a Jan. 30 campaign reception. (America's total population is about 333 million, according to the United States Census Bureau.)
...
The Daily Caller compared the number of changes in Biden's transcripts to a sampling of public remarks from former President Donald Trump.
The Biden White House corrected the president's State of the Union transcript 13 times. The Trump White House didn't modify the former president's State of the Union address transcript at all.
For Biden's remarks at the national prayer breakfast, the White House corrected the transcript eight times. The Trump White House adjusted the transcript once when the former president missed one word in a quote.
...
Biden's 2024 Earth Day remarks were modified eight times by the White House in their final transcript. Trump's transcript was not corrected at all.
There are a lot of times the White House "corrected" the record without acknowledging it was changing the historical record.
The Daily Caller's analysis does not include times that the White House altered transcripts without indicating there was a change.
During Biden's State of the Union address, the president attempted to say the name of 22-year-old Laken Riley, who was allegedly killed by an illegal immigrant in Georgia while on a run. Biden, however, called the slain 22-year-old "Lincoln."
The White House transcript writes that Biden said "Lanken" and corrects it to "Laken."
Biden was in his usual form at the joint press conference with the president of Kenya.

Interesting tidbit:
Biden at a press conference today sternly replied that a reporter could only ask him one question -- not two as a reporter had asked.
This drew laughter from the room as it ostensibly was a joke.
However, Biden was serious and tried to dodge the question.
After begrudgingly acknowledging the second q Biden said, "You guys never keep the deal." (2/3)
While it's well known to many reporters and onlookers that press conference questions are selected by the WH...
This IS a tacit, public confirmation that there are active agreements between reporters and the White House when asking Biden questions.
