Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) painted President Joe Biden as a leader who supports immigrants while defending the president’s reference to “illegals” during his State of the Union speech.

Biden was addressing Congress Thursday night when Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) interrupted and shouted out Laken Riley’s name, the college student in Georgia who was allegedly slain by an illegal immigrant. In response, the president went off script and responded, “Lincoln Riley, an innocent young woman who was killed by an illegal.” Schumer then appeared on The View Friday to do some damage control.
