During a visit to Wilkes University on Tuesday, President Joe Biden blasted members of the GOP who continue to support participants of the Jan. 6 riot. “Let me say this to my MAGA Republican friends in Congress: don’t tell me you support law enforcement if you won’t condemn what happened on the 6th.”
