A new gaffe for US President Joe Biden, during his speech at a conference on famine and the food crisis, after he asked about Congresswoman Jackie Wallorsky, who died last month in a traffic accident, caused confusion among the audience.  

  

 

  

Biden appeared in the video saying: "Jackie, where are you, are you here? I think she will be here."  

  

And this gaffe, called for clarification from White House spokeswoman, Karen Jean-Pierre, who said that “the reason for the president’s confusion is that the late woman helped organize it,” noting that “Biden was also considering hosting the Walorsky family later this week, What prompted him might have called it a mistake."  

  

And she added, "He was thinking about her naming the people and the heroes of Congress who shed light on this very important issue, and there was confusion," noting that "such moments may happen with many people, when they talk about people present in their minds."  

  

Biden himself issued a statement just weeks ago, in which he mourned Walorsky, expressing his grief and shock at her loss, and offering condolences to her family.
