Biden called the late leader, and Kamala Harris called North Korea a friend

A strange coincidence of slipping tongues of two of America's biggest leaders has come to the fore. The special thing is that these incidents happened in just 24 hours. On Thursday, President Joe Biden was attending a program at the White House. He called a former female senator by name twice. They have passed away.
On the other hand, the Vice President is Kamala Harris. He is on an Asia tour these days. In South Korea, she reached the border that meets North Korea. Here, standing on the soil of South Korea, he called North Korea an ally or friend of the US. Some people on social media have quipped about both incidents.
On Thursday, President Biden was speaking to the media at the White House on a bill related to hunger, nutrition and health. The Biden administration is making $8 billion on this program. According to Biden, there is a plan to eliminate such problems by 2030.
Before ending the speech, Biden was thanking all the lawmakers. During this, he also took the name of Jackie Walosky. Said- I want to thank our Senators Mr. Barun, Senators Booker and Jackie for their cooperation in preparing this bill. where are you, Jackie? Where are you, after all, Jackie?
After speaking, Biden suddenly remembered that Jackie had passed away some time ago. He paused for a few moments and then said – I think he is still present among us to fulfill this dream. Later, when White House press secretary Carin Jean-Pierre was asked questions about Biden's tongue slipping, she also got upset. The last Jackie is still alive in our hearts.
Vice President Kamala Harris is on a tour of Asia these days. Under this, she reached Seoul, the capital of South Korea. From here she went to the place which is called DMZ or Demilitarize Zone. This is the place where the borders of North Korea and South Korea meet. The border of North Korea is just 50 meters away from here. There is such a part on the border, where small cabins of army officers of North and South Korea are built.
Here Harris met soldiers from South Korea. After this, a short speech was given. Referring to all the things, Harris's tongue slipped. He said- North Korea is our ally. The special thing is that even later, Kamala did not remember how big a mistake she had made. Despite being trolled on social media, till now Harris or his office has not even expressed regret about this.
