President Biden delivered remarks in Philadelphia as the city received a $22.4 million SAFER Grant award to fund firefighters’ salary and benefits. He also mentioned providing millions to the Assistance to Firefighters Grant Program and the SAFER Grant Program, adding 1,200 local firefighters and funding training, equipment, and firefighter health and safety resources. Biden's statements about almost losing his wife and house to a fire in 2004 have been met with skepticism and fact-checking. He also expressed gratitude to firefighters for saving his wife, dog, cat, and Corvette in the 2004 fire at his Delaware home.

Today, speaking to firefighters in Philadelphia, Biden told one of his favorite lies: that he almost lost his wife and house to a fire. It’s not true — and he has told variations of the same fake story at least TEN TIMES since taking office. 🧵
